Move to Pinboard! + A word on the spreadsheet!

Hi guys,

Two important archive-things!

1)
I wanted to let you know that 221B Recs has finally left the ever sinking disaster ship that is delicious.
You can now find our archive at pinboard! \o/

We're almost caught up on recs there. February's posts should be up shortly.

I'd like to take this opportunity to say thank you to iamshadow, our tireless archiver.


2)
There've been a number of double recs in the past few months. One reason for this seems to be that reccers can't always find a fic on the spreadsheet, even though it's on there.

Here are a few pointers to help you navigate it:

- Make sure the entire spreadsheet has loaded before trying to search it. You need to scroll all the way down to the end to make sure it is fully loaded. You can sort the entries by author by clicking on the top of the author column (A), then in the top menu click on Data and choose 'Sort Sheet by column A, A-Z'. Do NOT click on Sort Range as that will unlink the authors from the stories.

- If someone has applied a filter to the spreadsheet, it will not display all of the entries. You can tell if a filter is applied because there will be a small funnel symbol at the top of the filtered column. To turn all of the filters off, toggle the funnel symbol in the toolbar menu (second symbol from the right).

Credit for these search tips goes to swissmarg, who's been kindly archiving things there. A big thank you to her as well!


* ETA: The guidelines page has now been updated to include directions for the search in the spreadsheet. You can also find them on the top of the spreadsheet itself.

Thank you! I'm going to be attacking the February recs this evening, so hopefully within a few hours the whole thing will be up to date.
