I came across two web sites with lyrics to traditional songs that may be of interest. Nowhere near DT in scope, but a resource is a resource.

Iris songs: http://www.sd.monash.edu.au/~exton/words/

Bluegrass songs: http://www.runet.edu/~bluegrass/songlnk.html

You know, one thing that might be a useful addition to Mudcat would be a an organized table of links to alternate lyric sources on the web.

What do you think Dick Greenhaus?

Then if people wanted to find a particular lyric they could follow an algorithm like

Search DT If not in DT GO TO Mudcat links page & search alternate lyric sources If lyric not found elsewhere GOTO Discussion Forum and post request for lyrics

OK, I have been working all day on something that takes advantage of the cookies that I have been placing on your pages as you signed up for the membership. This is a serve yourself links page. It is a system that allows you all to enter links to your favorite sites and other links of interest. It is somewhat of an experiment because it relies on honesty and collective thought.

There is a form here (http://www.onstagemedia.com/mudcat/links/EntryForm.cfm) where you can enter new links to the pages. You can view all of the links in the database here (http://www.onstagemedia.com/mudcat/links/all-links.cfm). Taking advantage of membership, you can go here (http://www.onstagemedia.com/mudcat/links/all-new-links.cfm) to see only the new links since your last visit to the links pages. You can also search the links pages here (http://www.onstagemedia.com/mudcat/links/findlinks.cfm) by category, title or description.

Remember, you must be a registered member (free) to participate in this feature. If you try to go to these pages without a cookie, you will be automatically forwarded to our membership page or will receive an error. Which leeds me to remind you that this is a prototype. It will change as the days go on, and may have a bug or so. Let me know how you like it or what I could change or what doesn't work in this thread.

Oh, yes, you can also keep a personal bookmark file of your favorite links too. You must see it to believe it. We are now working on the same idea with threads.
