All New Thingy

[Gnomicide]

I hope this is ok to post here, please delete if not.

Since the early days of The Thingy being drawn up on eFestivals, it developed from this

to this https://theglastonburythingy.weebly.com/

Now, thanks to the absolutely amazing design and build efforts of @kalifire, a new website has arisen. 

Remaining advert free, with no money being made off the back of it, and including many links back to eFestivals news articles, I present to you the all new Glasto Thingy website.

https://theglastothingy.com/

Now much more user friendly and optimised for mobile, you can quickly select info by year, by month, by subject (When Does?) or still view the old full breakdown from 2000 to this year if you prefer.

Thanks again to Kalife, I'm sure anyone who uses the site will appreciate his efforts.

I couldn't possible comment, but it wasn't me.

The Good Thingys In Life Are Free

It’s a pleasure to give back to the community. I hope you all find the new site useful and exciting as we count down the days 🙂

If anyone experiences any issues or something doesn’t look quite right, or indeed if you have any suggestions, feel free to drop me a message here.

Looks great! Couple of legends. Amazing work both 👏🏻

New feature updates for The Thingy!

You can now go straight to the month or year you're interested in by adding a hashtag after the URL and typing in the first three letters of the month, or the year (for the original Thingy format).

For example: https://www.theglastothingy.com/thingy#apr will take you straight to the Thingy, with April already open to view.

Alternatively, in the original Thingy view, visiting: https://www.theglastothingy.com/thingy/original#2017 will take you directly to 2017, saving you previous milliseconds you could be spending gawping at the webcam.

Great for saving to take you straight to what you're interested in, or sharing a more direct link with others.

Nice!

Excellent

Ooh, just had an idea - is it possible to have some sort of link up between the webcam time machine and the Thingy, so you can see what the site looked like when a particular announcement occurred?

I've no idea how the UI or the code would work, but the idea is cool, no?

That's an excellent idea! Whether it's possible or not, I don't know. @Cheesey any ideas?

Definitely doable. Anyone can easily look up dates on the tool and enable "Shareable URL" to update the address bar to a URL that can be used in a link:

Or you can just construct a suitable URL yourself if you already know the date and time you're interested in.

Either way, a link in the following form will will take you directly to the specified date and time:

Announcing an all-new section of The Glasto Thingy!

Smaller stage/area announcements now have a page of their own, allowing you to view the entire announcement schedule by area. This is a great way to access historical announcement details about specific parts of the site, in case you ever wondered when it might be likely to hear from a smaller stage.
