"audioscrobbler: a cool thing to join"

[URL]http://www.audioscrobbler.com[/URL]

Download a plugin for your favourite mp3 player, and audioscrobbler keeps a record of all the songs you play EVER on its website. This is good because it lets you know how cool your taste actually is, as opposed to how cool you think it is, by generating weekly and all-time charts. This is my page: [URL]http://www.audioscrobbler.com/user/unknownkernel/[/URL] I've been doing it for ages and the most I've ever listened to a song is 7 times. Surprising. And my favourite song is apparently M'Gell by Ultrakurt, which I've never heard of but turns out to be a song on a mix CD I have.

Anyway, the coolest thing is that everything is linked. Click on a song in your profile and you get a list of other people who love that tune, or listen to it a lot because they really hate it. Click on an artist and you get a list of their most popular songs. Click on a user and you see all their fave tunes, plus what they're listening to RIGHT NOW. Woo! You can also get reccommendations based on what you listen to - like amazon except that it works, and throws up things you've never heard of.

And and and you can make your own groups, and I have very cleverly made a special reserve one for you to join [URL]http://www.audioscrobbler.com/group/Special%2BReserve[/URL] Groups with 10 or more members get weekly charts, so Special Reserve would have its very own number one.

So, yes, you should all join.

As a friend, you weren't on my list. I thought the tag seemed appropriate! :)

You added me back to what?
I noticed your relationship tag to me :)

Ooh.. I added you back. Took a while to figure out how, though.. :)

Doesn't seem to like Blue by Joni Mitchell despite it being on CD

Ditto. One being Crimson & Clover by the Archies! :-(

apparantly it doesn't pick up unicode... or Something like that.

I noticed that there are a couple of tracks it doesn't pick up that I've played.

Some very dodgy counting going on here, it only takes a quick look at my top track to know it's missing a lot. Added to that apparently i've only listened to 10 songs in the last week. I had Between The Bars on for 3 hours solid a couple of nights ago!
