Last.fm

I'm pretty much bored, so I'll just write a new blog entry. =) Just wanted to talk about last.fm:

Last.fm, the social music website which tracks your listening habbits just changed the whole outlook of the site and added new features. You can find my profile, and even add me as a friend, here:

I don't know why everybody is complaining about the change of the look, as they were building last.fm from ground up. I think it took a lot of resources and now the croud is just booing at them? I, myself, love the new look and think it's a fresh new start for the site.

In other news, my life officially sucks. I'm all alone here at my house and all my friends are having fun in different places. But I'm not complaining about it, it's just how it is. Boring, but still, I'll find something to do.

And oh, about my music, I'm going to the studio again next tuesday with my band Bliss of the Sunset. The old demo is really outdated and we wanted to record the new songs so.. =) I think it's going to be real fun again. (I'm the singer and backing guitar player in the band, eventhough I have guitar solo in the new song we're recording..)

See ya. I think.

The new layout is lame and boring. I have this weird feeling this is one site change I won't get used to. I remember when they changed layouts previously… It felt weird at first, but I didn't not like it. Sadly, that is not the case now.

Well, yeah. But I guess now when almost half of the community is angry / confused about this change, they'll do something like having an option to change the look to the old site, with the new features. Or something like that.

I hope they do, but I doubt they will.

It's looking a bit like facebook, try adding someone as a friend.

Speaking of which, I added you.

Wow, it took me a while to find where to accept your request. Inbox > Friend Requests.

This should be on the Friends page like before. How stupid of a design choice.

Yeah, I do this the new "beta" design is pretty weird, as I am used to the old school layout.

Not sure if I can get used to it, but I guess the only way is to wait and see.

On the other hand, the new iPod Touch app is awesome, scrobbling directly from my iPod.

@melee: They also put "Friendship requested Accept / Decline" buttons to the userpage too. Weird.

I wonder if this is going to happen when .. *cough* V3 is released.

I stopped visiting Last.fm, until a few weeks ago I received a email for a Beta thing in there. As soon as I saw the new design, I decided to never visit that place again.
