audioscrobbler

This is really an off topic post to start the blog but that is probably going to be the way of it.

I recently rediscovered Audioscrobbler and it has improved a lot since last time I saw it. It is an open source application which includes plugins for you music player of choice itunes, WMP , winamp etc. when you listen to songs it records what you are listening to and after a while is able to find other audioscrobbler users who listen to similliar music and make recomendations for you based on their playlists.

It also includes a great interface for just searching for related music and it will create a customized radio station just for you and you can listen to it via the internet directly throught the app.

Give it a go and hopefully you'll find some new music that you enjoy and wouldn't have found other wise. You can download it from http://www.last.fm/tools/downloads/
