Live Shoutbox / Requests / DJ Area Thing

So readers of the newsletter will know that thanks to the survey we're going ahead with this "Live Shoutbox / Requests / DJ Area Thing".

The plan is to have one special page with a shoutbox on it, a request script on it and maybe some other stuff.
The DJ currently broadcasting will be the admin of that page (the shoutbox etc. will probably be reset after the DJ is done broadcasting) and he will be able to delete comments, delete requests and stuff like that.
Maybe make announcements, we could give the DJ the ability to show his playlist or something along those lines. Maybe a large box of formattable (BBCode?) text on the page where he could put anything he liked.

So yeah, we're currently designing this and are still tossing around a few ideas. It's not even near a finished product yet (it will be by april, though!) so we were wondering if you guys had anything you'd like to see on this page? Or maybe some specifics of how you'd like the shoutbox, etc. to function? Also, can anyone think of a good name?

Re: Live Shoutbox / Requests / DJ Area Thing

Maybe every DJ could have their own page anyway, simple, with a shoutbox, and a request thingy that became Live if they are playing a set.  The DJs could then have this as a perminante page where they can put all there news and stuff etc..

Just an idea, might be a bit of a server load tho..

Re: Live Shoutbox / Requests / DJ Area Thing

You could create your own requests page on your site (if you have one) very easy to do if you know HTML. Ive nearly finished mine i'm putting the finishing touches to it when I get home tonight. (Im at college atm supposed 2 be doing work hehe).
