Okay PrivateRolf reminded me to get around to implementing the Last.fm mod.
If you enter your username in your profile your last played track on Last.FM will show above the "Report to Moderator" button in your profile.
Thanks Malpercio for writing it. baddood;
Awesome, a feature that actually pertains to my interests.

I do not have Last.fm.
Do they have music I like? O_0

Necessarily, since it's your music. maps;

1. Register on last.fm
2. Download a client that tracks what you listen to.
3. enter user name and password
4. Listen to music.
5. check website and find people who like music similar to yours and new artists. Q('_' Q)
Sounds complicated.

Not really. Basically it's a site that gives you a small little program that runs in the background automatically while you listen to music with iTunes, WMP, etc. It tracks what you listen to and puts them on your last.fm profile, which lists recently played music, most played artists, most played tracks, etc.
It's like social networking, but more lightweight and purely for music.
Bah, my explanation was gonna be all clumsy and stuff, Kaz's is way better. hocuspocus;
So...the music I'm listening to in Windows Media Player...it tells you guys? O_0

Yes, so long as you have it labeled correctly and all.

Only if you enter your username in your Forum Profile Information here. Otherwise, we'd have to go directly to your last.fm page. n_u

You can also make silly images. giggle;
Sounds cool.
I lost interest in my Last.FM
I'm going to delete it sometime this week if I feel like it hocuspocus;
Needs more people who do it. badass
And let people know what I listen too? n_u Actually I have one.

Yes, Rae. Let people know what you listen too. happydood; n_u
But I was more referencing to all those people who posted in the other last.fm thread. saddood;

Me either, actually. You're probably going to see "Psychosocial - Slipknot" in my posts half of the time from now on. n_u
I play Prince about every other song. n_u
You know, I can give you the more recent code that adds a tiny, tiny thumbnail of the album art and a link to the song.
It honestly won't take that long. happydood;

I'd rather just have the text. The rest seems too obtrusive.
Also I deleted the last.fm software since it didn't work with my Zune media player. What player (other than iTunes) should I use instead? I feel like getting back into last.fm now.

Fuck yeah Mountain Goats. giggle;
This is basically what it loooks like with album art, and there's a link to the song if you click on the picture/text.

Just my opinion, but it doesn't seem that much more obtrusive.

Place this in Display.template.php

//Last.fm listening mod

What about index.php?

It's no longer necessary in index.template.php or index.php if you do what I did above.
