    Journal Ideas Last reply on July 03, 2008 16:53.

    I'd like to see more emphasis put on the Journal. On the new beta, it's still kinda tacked on as an afterthought, and I'd like the option of putting it more front and center in my profile. I'd also like to see it more front and center on other pages to encourage it's use more.

    Beyond that, I'd love to see some kind of integration between the last.fm Journal and any blogs I may have lying around. It would be a great way to extend my last.fm experience out into the rest of my internet social experience if Journal posts also posted to my blogs embedded content and all!

    [Beta] Is there a way to grab the activity feed in RSS?

    I was wondering if it is possible to grab my activity feed in order to include it in my lifestream. Is there an RSS feed for it? If not, that would be a great idea.

    Help us improve our new beta site - The Library Last reply on July 01, 2008 16:13.

    Hi,

    Matt Brown here again -- I'm an interaction designer here at Last.fm.

    And, again, we've just launched a new beta, so while we're tightening screws, sweeping up, polishing and generally watching how subscribers get to grips with it over the next while, I'd love to get some feedback on some of our ideas.

    More specifically, the new ideas we're trying out around our new Library feature.

    If you're a subscriber, you can go to http://beta.last.fm and follow the Library link on the left hand side.

    What works for you, and what doesn't? Again, all thoughts and suggestions would be much appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Matt

    Remove "www.last.fm" keyword from overheard

    Currently the overheard is catching a lot of twits about people sending the last song they played. Not very useful and it spams the stream which means that people (like me) monitoring for people twitting for help, cannot find it (I won't even register to last.fm overheard when 95% is last song played spam)

    This can be fixed by excluding the keyword www.last.fm. Since most automated scripts send the full url of the artist (which is what is being caught), by removing this keyword, only twits actually wiring "last.fm" will be shown

    See the difference for yourself

    Was there a change regarding the similar-artist-radios, excluding the main artist? Last reply on June 19, 2008 10:48.

    Hi, i just tried to post this question, but as it seems not to have worked I'll try again:

    Was there a change regarding the similar-artist-radio some two or three weeks ago? I've been a regular listener to the similar-artist-radios for "Stars" and "Regina Spektor", and I've been getting their songs regularly on these stations. Mostly the stations started with the respective artist.

    That has changed now. I'm still listening to these radios and if the radios had stayed the same, I guess I should get around 6 or 7 songs per week for each of the artist. But I got none. So I presume, that the main artist got excluded from the similar artist radio stream.
    Is that the case?

    I don't want to go back to listening to my playlist just to listen to my favorite artists. That's boring after some hours and the stream won't resonate a specific mood I'm in in that moment.

    I'm using the stand-alone client in winxp (discovery mode is turned off and can't be turned on for similar-artist radios).

    Please, give me a chance to listen to my favorite artists. I'm getting a little frustrated with last.fm. I've been listening to my streams for half a month now, but I didn't get the music I wanted to listen mainly.

    Personal info on artist/track page: listening count and how well does he/she/it fit your library

    Could there be a listening count for me on very artist page and on every track page. Maybe in a box with other personal information such as: "last.fm thinks this artist fits you 85%"

    I get sent to pages by my friends and then I wonder whether I've ever listened to that artist. And when coming across an artist name on the internet, I usually look him up on last.fm. I then miss the above described information. But furthermore I'd like an estimation how good he fits with my profile.

    I know I can get the listening count via my all time artist charts and via my all time track charts. And I regularly do. .. But it's three clicks + a search in the site, every time I come across an artist I don't know.

    And I really miss this "fits ...% well in your library". I suppose that's hard to calculate for every artist - user pair. But you are already doing it for every user-user pair.

    Help us improve our new beta site - the Flash player and Listen page Last reply on June 13, 2008 16:19.

    Hello,

    My name's Matt Brown, and I'm an interaction designer here at Last.fm towers.

    Again, we've just launched a new beta version of Last.fm, so while we're tightening screws, sweeping up, polishing and generally watching how subscribers get to grips with it over the next while, I'd love to get some feedback on our ideas.

    More specificially, we'd love to hear what you think about the new ideas we're trying out -- around how (or indeed if) you listen to music around the site itself -- with the updated Flash player and the updated Listen page.

    If you're a subscriber, you can check out the updated Flash player on an artist page: say, http://beta.last.fm/music/Radiohead

    ... and the updated Listen page can be found by clicking on any radio station link. For example: http://beta.last.fm/listen/globaltags...

    What works for you, and what doesn't? Let us know. All thoughts and ideas are super valuable, especially at beta stage.

    Thanks,

    Matt

    I'd like a way to create a station for a group of people Last reply on May 21, 2008 17:51.

    I'm sitting around the office with my co-workers, and we are listening to Last.fm. It's a blazing hot day in San Francisco, and we don't have air conditioning. So, I made a radio station that uses the tag "hot". What I'd really like, though, is to have a group mode. I'd ask each of my co-workers (five in the room right now) to name an artist, and I'd enter their responses into Last.fm. That way, we'd create a custom radio station just for our office, and we'd undoubtedly all find new, previously unforeseen intersections of our musical interests. Everyone's happy!

    Is this already possible? I may simply not know about such a feature (or a similar feature).

    The new design Last reply on June 05, 2008 23:40.

    Would you change the current beta design? Would you consider returning the shoutbox, the about me to their places? Or return the artists chart above track chart where it should be?

    Would you at least consider to give feedback on the feedback? The "Visual design of beta last.fm " is blowing up with more than 350 replays, but lately none of them were yours.

    Last.fm is adding songs from someone else to my profile.

    I love Last.fm and I think you provide a brilliant service.

    Unfortunately, someone else's tracks have been appearing in my profile lately. This has been going on for at least three weeks. This is not a random selection of music, it appears to be reflecting an actual person's listening habits (i.e., one band's music or style of music will tend to appear together, it seems to be a coherent taste in music, etc.)

    I don't think my account has been cracked, because I've changed my password and it's still happening. (Also, I think if someone cracked my password as a prank they'd be putting up embarrassing tracks, but the tracks are nothing notable.)

    I know it's not someone else on my laptop, because nobody else uses it, and most of the songs don't exist on my laptop.

    I contacted you after reading the following, but never heard back:
    http://www.last.fm/forum/21713/_/3667...

    Please help... I don't want my Last.fm profile to continue to be corrupted/diluted.

    Thanks!
