We’re continuing to improve on the new “Find Gigs” section and, today, we introduced a few changes based on your feedback:

• We hear all the time that you want us to tell you about more gigs that are relevant to you. So we’re asking you to help us and making it easy for you to do that. Now you can give a gig listing a “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” from right within the ”Find Gigs” section. Gig listings that you give a “thumbs up” to will be added to your “Favorites” section, and we’ll send you a friendly reminder when the deadline is coming up. This will save you some  time and a whole lot of mental energy trying to remember all of that. Oh, and you can manage these reminders from within the “Favorites” section of your account.

• Some of you were confused by the dates of the gig listings, so we fixed that too. Now, when you sort your results by most recent date, you should see the most recent date first. Remember you can save your search if you go into the “Advanced Search” area. We also heard that “Date” and “Date Added” were confusing labels- you’ll notice we are now calling “Date” “Event Date” to help clear things up.

• Last thing, there was an issue with the Stats page for Internet Explorer users when we released plug-ins a couple of weeks ago for – we fixed that…sorry about that!

Enjoy and keep the feedback coming!

We got a ton of great feedback over the past week after launching Last.fm, Twitter and Google plugins and the new Find Gigs section.

And we’ve been doing more than just reading your feedback. We’ve been working on making tweaks to both the Plugins and the Find Gigs section based on what you’ve said. Here’s what we released today:

Ever wonder what people are saying about your band or who’s listening to your music (um, of course you do!)?  Promoters do too, and will often search for bands online to check out their buzz.  Well, we just made it a little easier for artists and promoters to track buzz all in one place – on Sonicbids – by integrating Last.fm listens and GoogleBlog and Twitter search results into artist and promoter accounts.

We’re excited to tell you about the changes we made to improve your experience searching for gigs on Sonicbids.  We’ve heard a lot of feedback over the past few months, and, yes, we really listen! Below are some of the highlights based on that feedback: (more…)

Just a quick note about a tiny feature we added recently.  If you haven’t noticed, you can now check a box called “Remember me” when logging into your account to stay logged into Sonicbids for the next 2 weeks.

Admittedly not the most exciting feature, but hopefully it will make accessing your account on a regular basis a bit easier.

Stay tuned for some much cooler updates coming soon.
