So, what are the thoughts on Mini Moyles then?

Anyone didn't have it and have installed it this week? Anyone have it and still use it?

Has anyone taken part and influenced the show yet?

Hi Aled I downloaded it on Monday, but I haven't received any messages. I've checked the FAQ but that didn't help. Any idea what the problem is?

I downloaded the original, then my girlfriend whinged about me downloading something on her computer ('spose technically it is!), so even tho' I'd love to, I won't just yet...... can't bear the earache :(

To be perfectly honest, I've only tried it once at work about 2 months ago and haven't used it since, mainly because I don't have windows at home. I've been trying to make a linux version, but unfortunately thats going nowhere fast.

I installed it but it was annoying so I uninstalled it again.

I had it for a long time last year but it started to bug me so I got rid of it. Was thinking about that today when Dom mentioned the 12 year old using Mini Moyles.

Tis a good little thing to have. What else will tell you Dave is trying to go for a jog twice a week!? I've had it for a few months now. I'm surprised it hasn't been talked about on the show before.

Having features like voting for the track after the 8am news is a great idea.

Oh yes and I was very very mad at it for distrupting an internet game of Zero Hour and Cossacks. As I had to minimise to quit it and therefore lost my game for being inactive!

I used to have it, but since I now use my Laptop I just haven't installed it on here yet, thanks for the reminder though Aled. :D

okay, well, we'll be playing with it over the next few weeks.

The fortnight that we're away there'll be a whole host of bonus stuff. ALL exclusive. Pictures not found online, audio not heard on air, Video not seen before (tbc), links exclusively for Mini Moyles and maybe an exclusive Chris Moyles game.

Any suggestions?

I think what bugged me was too much about other Radio 1 stuff. The occasional message was alright. But for instance in the run up to the One Big Weekend in Birmingham.

Looking forward to it

Would there be links to pictures/games etc or would they be intergrated onto the program itself. Surely that'd use a lot of computer usage and crash a few things.

It does need a re-vamp and it's looking good.

By the way, the voice of Mini Moyles sounds a lot like the crazy frog 8O

Only have Windows on my lap top. Never got round to installing it though.

Might do if all that extra stuff is gonna be on there though..

It was when it was first launched about this time last year.

Downloaded it when it was first launched, but ended up getting irritated by it and uninstalling it after a few weeks. The novelty wore off, and I got bored of reading messages about random Radio1 stuff that wasn't Moyles related.

It's a bit of a gimmick in my opinion. I say all of this extra content should be available on the website as a normal page and available as and when we want it. I'm not on my computer all day and wouldn't want to miss out on anything good because of that.

Has anyone else seen the folk face video that was linked to on Mini Moyles yet? Very good in my opinion, changed my view on them completely. GO FOLK FACE!

Well I've got nothing since I installed it. I'm not on the computer all the time which probably doesn't help. The video idea sounds interestinga s well.

OK thanks, good to know. Does anyone have the cat[…]
