Last FM is an online radio website which has tickled our fancy over the past month. It's kinda like a Bebo or MySpace but it's completely orientated towards Music - not mindless social drivel. The site installs a tiny plugin in your iTunes or media player and sends details of every track you play back to your LastFM profile. Then it finds people with similar tastes to you and makes them your neighbours. This lets you find new music to your exact taste and (if you absolutely can't do without the social drivel) new people who like the same stuff as you. For best results queue your favourite michales songs to play on loop when you go out to boost our ratings! Now that's thinkin like a Michaels fan! Check it out: www.last.fm
By the way there's a little glitch in the radio that makes it possible to play free music from any band you like: Just type in a crap load of artists into the radio player (about 15) and instead of playing tracks like these artists the way it's supposed to (to avoid copyright bullshit) it actually just plays the artists you type in!

I'm sure it's lovely but argh! Not another one. I'm into a radion station over here called Triple J. They play little known or unknown artists and they have no ads! Woo. Some of the presenters are working on 'Bono: The Musical'. Heh. 'Excuse me, Mr. Pope, you've got problems in your church'...
And that's the music I'm listening to at the mo. Anything on Triple J. Mainly cos I only have a cassette player in my car and I have no cassettes. And all the other stations keep playing Top 40 shit. Makes me angry...
