Last.fm

Possibly the best website in the world.

I've been a Last.fm user for years but after a short stint of using it, totally forgot about it... Lately I started using it again and I have to tell you about it. ITS DEAD GOOD.

Basically Last.fm is a website that deals in the music industry, and allows users a very impressive amount of features (especially considering that its free), musicians and bands etc. can upload music (much like mypace did before facebook stole all its audience) and then ordinary none musical folks can listen to it... But here is where it gets good...

Say you search for a band in this instance I'll search for Justin Bieber ('cuz he iz ma faverit singer eva) a page will come up... http://www.last.fm/search?q=justin+bieber&from=ac like that one, and you can see where the artist is playing next, read all about them, see pics that other users have uploaded, and click 'listen to "the musician that you searched's" radio' TRY IT. This is the best feature... Last.fm will play you a song by the artist, or maybe 2 if you're really lucky, but then it finds artists that are similar to this band, and play a song from them... This helps you get in to so many different bands, don't you agree that its DEAD GOOD?

On top of this last.fm made apps and things for android phones and for your itunes etc that scrobble (a word that last.fm made up) the song, i'm unsure what that word actually entails, but what the apps do is count what songs you listen to, and on your personal Last.fm profile tells you your play count and tells you what artists and what songs you've listened to the most, it then compiles all of these into your library, and wherever you are on your computer or app, you can play back your library straight from the internet...

GO AND TRY IT OUT, YOU'LL LIKE IT IM SURE.

and i'm sure that there is more features but I'm bored of typing now, so next week or whenever I can be arsed to write another blog and get back on here and write something else out on another installment of RTTCMA. but for now I've been Nathe and you've been bored reading this... bye. c:
