2009-09-10: Easier Registration

It is now easier than ever to sign up for a Chordie account! Adds lots of features, and is free!

2009-05-05: Chordie on Twitter

Chordie is now on Twitter. Check out @Chordie. There will news regarding Chordie the next days. This is the only place these news are updated.

2009-03-31: NEW SEARCH INTERFACE

I have enabled a new search interface. Try typing the name of an artist or the title of a song. See what happens and give me feedback.

2009-03-29: Updated index

Chordie has been a bit slow for the last days, while the index was being updated. Now there are thousands of new artists available. Enjoy!

2008-08-28: Editing artist pages

Since Chordie is built as a search engine, multiple versions of the same song is often found. This can be a bit annoying to browse through. The new artist pages tries to solve this problem. It allows the editor to find default songs and attach them to the artists albums. All registered members can become editors, just click on the "Become an editor"-button on the artist pages. By becoming an editor you are making Chordie a better service for everyone.

2008-03-02: New artist pages - Beta

The artist pages has been totally redesigned. Registered members can now help improving the pages. Will be available for all artists later this week. One artist is made available to illustrate how it is going to look:
Check out the new Pink Floyd-page.

2008-02-30: Enhanced IPod Touch and iPhone support

These are really fantastic devices for guitar playing. I have started to add support for them on Chordie. Anyone using iPod Touch or iPhone for browsing the site, please give me feedback.

2007-08-28: Lots of new features

The new layout module is ready! There are tons of enhancements. Some of the major news: Better layout for printing, auto-scrolling, compact mode, scale text only, print preview with alternative layouts, better browser support. For more details, please look in this forum post.

2007-05-25: iPod support

Save your songbook as an iPod Notes files. These can easily be tranferred to your iPod. Works on most versions of the iPod. The newest generation can even show the chord grids. The songs are stored as text only with chords in brackets. A very compact format for such small screens. This feature is only available after you log in.

2007-05-20: Define chords

You can now redefine the chords. To check out this feature, click the chord grids to select another chord variation. The redefined chords will automatically be saved in your songbook.

2007-04-20: Facebook

Created a group on Facebook where you can meet fellow Chordie users. Join the group if you already have a Facebook account. Invite guitar playing friends. BTW: Has anyone checked out ticket broker Vivid Seats for Bruce Springsteen Tickets?

2007-03-28: Better printing

There has been a lot of changes to how Chordie prints songs. If you have to print a song, it is now much more likely that it prints on one single page. Multiple other small printing bugs are fixed. Any other suggestions about how the printed pages can be formatted are welcomed. Please also report all bugs you are experiencing while printing.

2007-02-12: Video tutorials

Several great video tutorials are available from the front page (top right corner). Brooke at Supernaturalthings came up with this great idea. She has also posted several of her own tutorials. Check out her website, she got quite a lot of guitar stuff and some nice art&jewelry.
Note: Anybody can add tutorials from YouTube and attach them to songs. If you are interested in doing this: Send me a mail, and I give you access.
