Sorry this is late. I’ve been fuming in Jason Castrotarding land.

Last.FM

How many of you are currently last.fm users? If you are, great! We’ve come up with a way to use it to Blake’s advantage, and have some fun too, so if you’re not a member, we hope you’ll consider signing up! Not only is it free, it’s also super easy to use! Just think of last.fm as a musical myspace. Last.fm’s software tracks your music listening habits by interfacing with whatever program you use to play music on your computer…iTunes, MusicMatch Jukebox, etc. You can even plug your iPod into your computer and it will track whatever you listen to on it. Instantly, last.fm will display what you’ve been listening to on your profile. It also generates charts of your top artists weekly, and your top overall artists and top overall tracks. In turn, you’ll be matched up with people who have similar musical tastes (your Neighbours), and you can add friends and even leave comments on each other’s profiles. But wait…there’s more! You can join groups for anything you’re interested in, whether it’s John Mayer or kittens or Gossip Girl or french fries. Each group’s page generates charts based on what it’s members are listening to. See where we’re going with this?

Read more about our plan after the jump!

Site Outage

Team Plaid will be going down for maintenance at 12 am EDT tonight for maintenance. The site is moving to a new host.

At 12 am EDT, I’ll be pointing mjsbigblog.com to new nameservers. The change on my end is immediate. However, the change needs to propagate throughout the vast internets.

When you wake up tomorrow morning, or even earlier, your ISP should be able to find my site. If not, drop me a line at mjsbigblog@gmail.com. Let me know who your provider is and I’ll check it out. If there are problems, my host and I should be able to come up with a workaround. But, generally, I’m not expecting any problems.

Thanks for your patience.
