Scrobbling with last.fm

last-fm / artlung

I have had a last.fm account since 2005. Most of the music represented in here is from a long time ago. The only brand new additions on the list above are My Bloody Valentine and Blooper, who I first became aware of only in the last few months. I was scrobbling a lot in 2005, but basically dropped off. So, now, I work for Slacker Radio, which is a music service, and I was wondering if I could scrobble from it, and there’s a great Chrome extension. I added the modifications and have it working for me locally, but it takes time to put it into the public GitHub repository and eventually make it to the distribution.
