I’m playing with last.fm, which is kind of cool. I got a plugin for itunes that reports my listening habits (spyware I installed on purpose – really that’s a wrong idea but it’s still kinda cool).
I’m working on a good way to do dynamic updates on my blog but haven’t found a good way to do it yet. But then I haven’t tried very hard.
Still it’s cool to see the charts when I have iTunes shuffling at random all day.
One more day, then it’s vacation time. I’d be counting hours if I had enough time.
Aw look, Hoodoo Gurus!
If there’s one thing that I’ve learned,
It’s the point of no return.
And if that’s to be our fate…
God, I miss that band.
and what is on the table for vacation?
last.fm can do that… http://www.audioscrobbler.net/data/webservices/ and if you go down to ‘recent’ tracks, it may have what you want. Or something you can bastardize into what you want.
Got gurus for ‘ya, Syl:
I don’t mince words, I spit’em out.
I won’t leave room for any doubt.
Get to the point, stop splitting hairs
That ain’t getting either of us anywhere.
Sometimes it’s better to be blunt
But is this some kind of publicity stunt?
So far you’ve whet my appetite,
Do you wanna grind with me tonight?
Axegrinder. I’m not famous for my tact.
Axegrinder. I’ve gotta sharpen up my act.
Axegrinder. Try and see things through my eyes.
Everything and everyone gets cut back down to size.
DN, yeah, I saw thier web services but I’m not happy with that shit, too logo-y. I want something cleaner. I have a perl script that might do it with some php hackery but I may lose interest before I get it done.
You want to lyric me down, boy?
What is it you want from me?
You won’t shock me easily.
Maybe it’s your heart’s desire,
Maybe it’s your wildest dream,
Maybe I’m a gun-for-hire but,
Baby, don’t we make quite a team, Don’t we?
Don’t we?
You know the next line, honey…
You bet I know the next line, Miss Freelove.
I started playing around with last.fm at work today while working in an elementary school lab (kids and teachers had the day off)–kinda neat, but they play some wierd stuff based on what you’re asking for. I went looking for some Genesis, and I got Genesis…performed by some horrible muzak orchestra.
But some good selections of Supertramp came through as well, so I’m not complaining too much.
