Need help with the Music Network

Kyle Klingman Welcome back! How was Burning Man?

Tanya Donald It was the best-like it truly is something else. EVERYONE GO!

Kyle Klingman Lovely. Well done.

Astrid Sarmiento Thanks Kyle :)

Kyle Klingman Is there any way you can center the WE inside the brackets? Other than that I think its great.

Nicolas Nguyen Good point Kyle. I think it would look more symmetrical and better.

Astrid Sarmiento Yes I will fix this one too, thanks for pointing that out Kyle, I hadn't noticed till now but I'll fix it.

Astrid Sarmiento I actually took the colors from the Wordever menu on top of the site and I took a screenshot and use the eye dropper tool to grab the background color and that reddish-orange color that you see in the icon.

Nicolas Nguyen Oh okay, makes sense Stephon.

Astrid Sarmiento So should I re-size the brackets ?

Nicolas Nguyen Yes, make the brackets taller and center the WE.

Astrid Sarmiento Okay, thanks.

Astrid Sarmiento Clarissa, I actually have links on my FB, Twitter, Instagram and Wordpress blog that link to my Wordever profile. I just need to add one to my Tumblr.

Astrid Sarmiento Nicolas, that can be done, I will make it and post it here when I'm done so that everyone can save the image and post it on their blogs or any platform that supports HTML :)

Astrid Sarmiento Okay all done I posted two different versions that I made of the Wordever Button and I added the button to my Tumblr site. Hope you guys like them :]

Nicolas Nguyen Very cool, thx

Astrid Sarmiento No problem, Nicolas.

Nicolas Nguyen Great idea Stephon.

Astrid Sarmiento Love it..just added my favorite topics, thanks Stephon.

Stephon Gee No problem

Erin Cushing Should topics created for Cool Thursdays have that phrase in the title somewhere, so we can search for them more easily?

Nicolas Nguyen How about using a hashtag in clip note as #cool-thursday.

Stephon Gee When someone comments on a reclip that origanly was from me, does that add to my score?

Astrid Sarmiento Yes it does add to your score Stephon and even when the person likes it, it adds up as well, I know because I've seen my score go up both ways.

Stephon Gee Ok cool

Nicolas Nguyen You now get a Thought Leader checkbox next to your name when your influence score reach 400.

Astrid Sarmiento No problem Stephon and oh I thought it meant something else lol.

Flora Demirchyan Ha! love it.

Clarissa Hamlin I agree with all of you. LaTanya, starting small and dreaming big is a great way to go! Putting the power in the hands of the users is a great way to go as well, Kristin. I wanted to offer something as a starting point, and all your consideration makes this initiative look promising!

Clarissa Hamlin I think Kristin idea is a great one to start with. Maybe we can scope out a unique, popular and specific topic on the site already, and use it to begin a network as a test case.

Clarissa Hamlin And using strong keywords in our posts would get the attention of Google and other search engines..

Kristin Klingman Sounds like a great place to start Clarissa. Great ideas everyone.

Tanya Donald Instead of creating a network lets just all create a topic for the thursday idea

Astrid Sarmiento Nice I'll keep this in mind..thanks :)

Tanya Donald No problem. I know we can all be lazy and the problem with doing this is that it creates A LOT of topics and gets hard to navigate through but it'll help build our community and make it look like the party it should be

Astrid Sarmiento Lol no but you're right I think that by getting even more specific in our topics it will help narrow the search for other users.

Nicolas Nguyen Great point everyone. The value is in doing the research and gather your information into a specific topic. You will find that your influence score will go up too.

Nicolas Nguyen Hi Clarissa, how about adding a hashtag to your clip note as #cool-thursday. If everyone does this, then all the clips will show up here.

Nicolas Nguyen What should be the theme for each day of the week?

Clarissa Hamlin Sure, I will add a hashtag to my cool Thursday entry. I am going to post weekday under the different themes of Mojo Monday, Trip Tuesday, Wild Out Wednesday, This Thing Thursday, and Funny Fridays so I will be sure to put a hashtag in there.

Nicolas Nguyen Oh cool, i want to participate too. I'll some Trip Tuesday today.

Erin Cushing What constitutes a "Mojo Monday" appropriate post?

Astrid Sarmiento Congratulations LaTanya :)

Brandon Greer aaayyyy! congrats!

Clarissa Hamlin You go lady! Congrats!

Miki C. Congratulations! :)

Vanessa Cavanagh congrats!!!!! yay

Clarissa Hamlin Helpful also to Wordever users.

Nicolas Nguyen I agree. Follow for the purpose of getting follow back do not produce the result that you want anyway.

Kristin Klingman this sounds great. I'd love to see natural and community healers post here as well.

Nicolas Nguyen Go for it and start on the topic. Others will join in.
