Love Music? Love Last.fm

If you are any way into music and use any semi-popular MP3 player (software-based), you should check out Last.fm! You install a little plugin onto your PC or Mac and it collects song information from your MP3 player and puts it into a database. So now you can see just how many times you listened to Jimmy Eat World - Sweetness and what albums you listen to are the least popular.
Oh and did I mention profiles? Yes you can add friends and find friends with similar tastes in music. They also allow you to check out new music with the Last.fm player - a piece of software that plays songs like a radio based on your musical tastes. You can even have RSS feeds of your last-played tracks. I highly recommend checking it out if you’re into music at all. You can view the last 10 songs I’ve listened to below.

mog is a pretty cool site for doing a similar function. (mog.com) It’s not quite as robust as last.fm (imho), but it’s still pretty slick.

Thanks for the sites! I listen to the radio all the time, so maybe now I’ll try something else.

Last.fm rocks - I used to use it more, but our company proxy blocks it (unfortunately)….

I just added you as a friend Vince. Your music taste is sorta close to mine. Check out my music website, I think you would like it.

Wow, this is great! I’ve been looking for a way to expand my library and this seems like the perfect way to see what others with similar music tastes are listening to!

Check out epiTUNES too. They need more listings but still it’s pretty cool.
