I'm not sure whether you're doing anything wrong doc - maybe one needs to have a Facebook account in order for this to fly? Like I said, I'm not sure how this works, but I'll swing it by the admin zone.
 
That might be it...I don't have a Facebookie  account.  Wink
There's a place at the bottom of the page you get taken to that says 'social reviews' ,but I can't get my cursor to post anything in any box. It looks like it isn't completely there for me...?

^You definitely need to have a facebook account to leave a comment but I don't think that should disable you from seeing that box where people would leave the comment (right under the review and under the bold 'social review comments (0)' ).

The time when I'm not seeing it though is when I have Disconnect turned on which is a browser plugin that disables all sorts of user tracking that google and facebook do, and that's when I don't see that box at all. Maybe if you have something similar like that or an heavier adblock or something else that might be doing a similar thing and disabling the facebook box (in my case I'm talking about firefox).

^ That might be the problem since I have McAfee security on my drive .....but I don't know how to disable any ad blockers or firewalls ...I'm basically ignorant about the inner workings of my computer.

Maybe, but usually an antivirus wouldn't have that much of an effect on a web page. Have you tried opening it in a different browser?

OK,

Late one month on this issueEmbarrassed... And like a lot of pillars on this site, I'm not thrilled, especially when aping such a hateworthy institution like fb and his evil owner not protecting private infos (M@X, fb = fesse du bouc Wink  & Tweet = twit)

Definitely not in favor of receiving thanks or hate reactions in a different channel that we already have... those often-useless comments like shown in MMA are sometimes even sparking arguments between those who use this feature

I don't review much anymore, because nowadays reviewing is really not what it used to be. There are so many ways to listen and discover an, album on the web, that most everyone can make up their mind without needing to read reviews anymore. As still the second reviewer on this site (in terms of numbers of written blunders), I rarely get reactions anymore, and TBH, I don't find that 90% of these reactions are totally uninteresting

So, in a few years, reviews will probably only be read by a few people (with lots of  - too much - time on their hands) looking for reviews that may not go along with their own opinions andtherefore will use these "reaction channels" to aggress the review authors. As one of the more conservative reviewers on this site, generally not giving many stars and telling that XYZ is not nearly as essential as one might think, I could be one of those in the first fire line

If those that are interested in saying something about an album, let them review it or PM the writer, no need to go public, IMHO.

read ya around

Hugues

Then a thread in this section: http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_topics.asp?FID=10 (gigs, tours, festivals) is a good place to announce it.

Thanks Sonia nice to see you too! 
I've been busy with my studies the past year or so, which means I don't visit here as often. 
Oh and right now it's summer in Denmark, and it's so rare we get sun and warm weather up here. I'd much rather spend my vacation on the beach/in the garden than in front of a computerBig smile

Oh don't worry Olav - I share your bear appearance and literally sweat rivers on hot days. I guess it's just a matter of getting used to it.

The sweating doesn't bother me...much...the feeling of having a mixture of cotton and tar flowing through my brain does however.
