Recommendations

Alex recently mentioned how impressed he was with the Pandora music recommendation service. Two of us trumped him with advice to check out Last.fm (a.k.a. Audioscrobbler).

Today, Slashdot highlighted two stories on the field of music recommendations and reports that ExtremeTech rated, yes, Last.fm as "by far the best out there". (Oh, won't someone please link to this post and keep the chain of links going....)

Here's my Last.fm page. Visit it to see why I recently called myself a "nostalgic retard" on the Last.fm forums. I don't listen to music when I work, so my song count is low, but you'll certainly get the drift, or feel my beat.

If you like it, please make me your Last.fm friend. You'll be better person than the hundreds of visitors who have declined to comment on four action-filled pages of that high-concept, mega-budget airplane screenplay I call "101".

Not even a "D00d, u're such a g33k!!! OMGROFLBBQ" from Maya or Naila.

Hmmm. Maybe it is just me....

Bonus shill:

If yu have any interest in working as a TV writer, go buy Alex's new "Crafty TV Writing: Thinking Inside the Box". It just came out this week, but I read a copy months ago. It is not only a guide to story and writing for the television format, but it also reveals the business side of the field. It'll be the best $10 you'll spend this month.
