How did you get the name "Bitcoin 21"? Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: bitpump on March 11, 2015, 06:52:37 AM I like it, there's a lot of links and it's VERY clean looking. How did you get the name "Bitcoin 21"? thanks! it's also lightweight and responsive, try it on a smartphone :) 21 -> 21 mio existing BTC Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: jacktheking on March 11, 2015, 07:20:50 AM This thread should be posted in Service Announcements (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=84.0) instead of here. Anyway, I like that you actually have a simple design. Maybe underline the link when we hover? So we will know it is a link. Rather than looking at the mouse..

Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: bitpump on March 11, 2015, 08:09:36 AM You use PHP to fetch the content right? correct, php fetched content is cached for performance (and using cloudflare, so it could be used by a kazillion users), i will increase frequency of cache now to each 10 min for frequently updating sources Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: nextgencoin on March 11, 2015, 08:18:58 AM Looks good, I wonder if you could cut the number of links down seems a bit too much for me, prioritise bigger stories. Maybe have a most popular/trending section.

Maybe have a most popular/trending section. Thanks! Ok, limited to max 12 per source, prioritisation is dependent on source. Will think on how to make a nice popular / trending section.. Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: bitpump on March 11, 2015, 09:37:20 AM 1 BTC = $ 290.29 (+0.74% in 24 hours) OK, how about this: 1 BTC = $290.60 (285-299) where 285 is 24h low and 299 is 24h high, see http://bitcoin21.info/ Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: Small on March 12, 2015, 12:15:43 PM I like the concept! simple and clean yet informative.
keep it up. Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: Bitcoin Explorer on March 12, 2015, 02:18:36 PM You should probably ask the admins of the websites permission before scraping stuff from there, they might nt want it(or the may want it). Either way, on the front end, you need to make it better, because I feel the website is just too simple. Try to add some unique content, because using these feeds will not give you any optimisation for SEO.
Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: SFMiner on March 12, 2015, 08:45:35 PM I like the concept, but I agree; if you could find a way to prioritize the stories, it would help focus attention.
Keep up the good work! Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: bitpump on March 12, 2015, 09:23:11 PM thanks for positive feedback :)
new feature added: generate mobile friendly links, see http://bitcoin21.info/?d=m target pages (after clicking a link on this 'special mobile' website) are now very well readable on smartphones with small screens scraping no problem, I use RSS feeds which are public and used to generate traffic, it's just a simple rss overview site, no ambitions to add new content, Title: Re: very basic bitcoin news overview site, feedback welcome Post by: Cryptowatch.com on March 12, 2015, 11:18:13 PM Quote Bitcoin News Warning: file_get_contents(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /home3/connecty/public_html/bitcoin21.info/index.php on line 89 Warning: file_get_contents(http://p.b.gw.gd/pricefeed/bitcoin_price_feed.php?format=fullticker): failed to open stream: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /home3/connecty/public_html/bitcoin21.info/index.php on line 89 Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'String could not be parsed as XML' in /home3/connecty/public_html/bitcoin21.info/index.php:96 Stack trace: #0 /home3/connecty/public_html/bitcoin21.info/index.php(96): SimpleXMLElement->__construct('') #1 {main} thrown in /home3/connecty/public_html/bitcoin21.info/index.php on line 96 You might want to disable error display on the live system. I've seen sites that actually display usernames and passwords for mysql-database this way.. Also, there's always the danger of feeds becoming unavailable when working with a 3rd party, so you might try to check for this in the code, so there's a proper message in cases where third party info is not available.
