Hi Folks, I currently have a terrible system for publishing dances I've written on the web (blog-esque thing in wordpress; really hard to search through). There's been talk on and off of a big database of dances, but that doesn't seem to be happening so I thought I should do something for mine.
I'm contemplating better ways of making dances my compositions more accessible; and since that would be for other people, I'm curious what's useful for other people. I'm envisioning four categories of dances; and then just lists of dances (title & sequence) on those pages. The categories I had in mind: Family dances Glossary contras Unique contras Odd formations Are there separate things you'd want to see in a list of dances when you're going through? Beckets, Closing dances, bouncy/smooth, etc. I've gotten really attached to Callers Companion ( http://callerscompanion.com/), and really like how it lets searches happen on dances. Anyone have a good way to incorporate that, or the type of element checklist/flag it provides, into a web-based interface for dances? It might also be that most folks don't collect dances from websites; and this is wasted time. But it does seem like I've obfuscated finding my compositions, and I regret not making them more available. Thoughts, opinions, experience, and advice appreciated. Thanks! -- Luke Donforth luke.donfo...@gmail.com <luke.do...@gmail.com>
