Finally trying out Last.fm Radio
Note: Disregard the following links and just try and use the links on my profile. WordPress can't seem to sort out the linking issue to last.fm.
Well I seem to have been upgraded to a last.fm subscriber (my profile) for now which is great. I get access to a few more feature which are good. Features that have always been free though are listening to radio. I fancy myself as a bit of a DJ or "good music chooser" might be the better choice for now, so why don't you sign up and then click some of the following links to fire up a 128kbits mp3 stream from last.fm of some good tracks. 
- Blaze's Personal Radio plays a lot of the music I do, so check that one for some good tracks. It's quite a good match they have there of the stuff I get into, well done lastfm.
- Here's a radio station I made up combining a bunch of my favourite artists at the moment. Quite a disco house style, some french touch and a bit of electro in there too. This seems to play a lot of semi older tracks (80s and 90s style) but it's fantastic.
- I have a bunch of neighbours that like similar music to them, so why not listen to some of Blaze's Neighbours? They surely have some interesting stuff.
I normally wouldn't make a post about something like this but last.fm suprised me with the kind of tracks they were playing. Admittedly I dont listen to very much commercial music but they seem to be getting a lot of it down well.
If you're not on lastfm yet, sign up now and start saving your music history, you never know what you will find in the future. It is truly an exciting place to be.
WordPress seems to be changing the links from lastfm:// to http:// so I am trying to get this fixed. Change it manually for now.
[...] A quick search didn’t get me very far (although it did lead me to Blaze, where I discovered my new design). But then I came across Simon Wheatley’s site, where he’s done exactly what I wanted using a plugin called FeedWordPress. Beyond just Last.fm integration, this amazing tool can take any RSS feed and integrate it as blog entries directly in your site. I’m sure I can think of a few other uses for it. So now you’ll see that my only Last.fm journal entry is now part of NorthSpace. Coolness. [...]
Well, whoever says you can’t add Last.fm because of Java, or HTML, or any other widget is just not knowing what he or she is talking about, and it does not matter if it is a blogger or the owner of the damn WordPress. I have been developing websites for 10 years, and if the staff here is not competent enough to allow java AND still protect THEIR butt, well guess what it is not my business.
Do like me, got to Blogger. I spent 1 hour figuring out everything I can’t do here, and it took me 1 minute to add Last.fm widget with all the java it contains on Blogger.
Bottom line, the problem is not Last.fm, it is not you, it is not me, it is not java, it is WordPress!
