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?
