Audioscrobbler Says I Listen to Zappa

So the other day I was on Matt Haughey’s site and noticed the little box called “Now Playing” and a link to “my audioscrobbler”.

Intrigued, I got an account and installed a plugin on iTunes. The result of this thing is that I have a new artlung.* link — it’s http://www.audioscrobbler.com/user/artlung/, which purports to show what I’m listening to at any given moment. I’m not sure how useful it is.

So. Audioscrobbler says I listen to Zappa.

Duh!

Still, kinda neat.

Oh, and there are some entries in there from Sunday night, Tony was making a CD for himself and managed to play some things I never play, like (ugh) Blink 182 and Goo Goo Dolls.

Well, maybe Audioscrobbler is not so much learning about me, as it’s learning about my computer.
