An attempt to make a better TV Guide
- voidfiles 17y agoAny critiques would be helpful.
- papyromancer 17y agoI would like to see less generalized showtimes. That's gonna be a doozy of a task, I know, what with the time zone scheduling thing that I've never thought to look into too closely. And really, for my purposes it's not necessary because I know most shows will be available online if I tune it at the wrong time. For anyone who, like me, watches just a few shows on a regular basis, this is the perfect program guide.
- RiderOfGiraffes 17y agoUSA only?
- voidfiles 17y agoThat is a really good point. I want to go international, but there are two problems. One, I don't have a great data source. My data source is extremely limiting. Two, I am the only person, and I only write English. Also I am at version 1, I am listening to all the feedback I get and I will continue to iterate to make a better site.
- RiderOfGiraffes 17y agoAcknowledged. I suspect that writing only English is much less of a problem than your data source(s). I can't critique, though, without seeing relevant TV programs. Good luck ... FWIW: I'm based in the UK.
- papyromancer 17y agoI love it. Any chance of eztv.it integration?
- voidfiles 17y agoemmmm, that's though. I use eztv.it, but I just am not sure if I want to go that route just yet. At this point I am really open to helping someone create a bookmarklette, or like a grease monkey script. I am just fresh out of the gate and would love to do a small number of things with this site really well. So maybe at some point, but I would look out for an aftermarket hack before it shows up on the site.
- papyromancer 17y agoMy comment was primarily tongue in cheek, but the grease monkey idea is excellent. The organization of your site is like eztv _in the future_ crazy future hands, and I'm using it daily to keep track of if I need to turn on the tv and/or head over to eztv. Cheers
