Fnoob Profiles

The profiles on fnoob are quite in-depth depending on what you want to do with them. So here's a little bit of help to get you going with the functionality and structure.

1. Privacy

Just like Facebook and other Social Networks, you have the ability to decide whether your profile is viewable by: a) public b) members only c) friends only.

You can change this by visiting this page ( assuming you are logged in) http://fnoob.com/community/profile/privacy.html

This page will also allow you to change your privacy on friends and photos.

2. Applications

There are over 20 applications you can have on your profile ( depending on profile type - ie - DJ, Listener, Fnoob Radio DJ, Label)

To view your current applications on your profile visit this page - http://fnoob.com/community/apps.html

You will notice they are split into categories - Core and Your Installed Apps. The Core apps are permanent and cannot be removed, Your apps can be removed. Both have settings options, although some applications don't have any settings (options), others have many.

You can also change the arrangement that they are shown on your profile - just drap and drop the order in which you want them displayed.

To browse the application types visit - http://fnoob.com/community/apps/browse.html

Here is a list of applications available to use on your profile. You will notice some are already added, whilst others are not. Feel free to add as may as you like!

There are also My URL Groups and Photos. These allow you to view your Photo albums and Groups you belong to or administer. The My URL application allows you to create your own fnoob.com URL - ie fnoob.com/fnoob

3. Invite friends

You can invite friends from other social networks very easily! Click here and simply choose the social network you have a login with and choose which friends to invite. There are some restrictions on numbers based on the social network itself, but it is very simple and easy to use and helps spread the word on Fnoob.com!

There are a few other features within each profile, and more is being added all the time, however this is a basic guide to get you going.

Enjoy!

Launch and schedule

Launch night for fnoob radio going live is now confirmed as September 5th 2009...time yet to be decided.
It will be a broadcast from a little now techno gig near London. I can't divulge too much information at this stage because the night owner is reluctant to have a press release saying'stay at home to listen and don't bother going'. Makes perfect sense. So for now it's a secret!

Beta radio schedule is now posted up, many more acts and dj's to be confirmed. Demand is suddenly getting very busy and 4 weeks seemed like an age is now far too short-coming. However, it's now getting very exciting to think this bar-room conversation is now turning into a reality.

Recent additions:
Frontpage style changes
Schedule release
Launch date announced

Immediate To Do:
Tutorials on how to broadcast, profile management and benefits of fnoob
