Gah, since they updated the silly compatibilitiser thingo I've been getting loads of highs.

yeah it is a bit silly, but i'm low with vzbxvzbx

as it should be ;)

Apart from checking your Weekly Charts, is there a way to see trends in your listening habits? I was wondering if anybody knows of a plug in or feature that would compare my charts from one week to the next to show what artists were rising and falling in popularity.

Surely this is the sort of nerdy feature somebody else must want!

There probably is one. Lots of things are provided by last.fm themselves and thousands more by users (as you know from all the links on this thread) Have a look about or ask on forum.

btw what you are looking for sounds as though it would be something that a greasemonkey script would provide. My last fm page is totally different to the normal one as i use firefox/greasemonkey/scripts. http://userscripts.org/scripts/search?q=last.fm

for those who want to scrobble youtube vidshttp://userscripts.org/scripts/show/34012

Adds a button to listen your loved tracks on Last.fm

theres pagesand pges of scripts go through them all and addwhat you want (needs firefox and greasemonkey)

http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/1982

^^ That seems to be exactly what I was looking for, thanks. I'm using firefox anyway, I take it greasemonkey would be safe enough to install?

yes

Scroll up to the top of the thread and add the ones I said I had installed, they are great.

ones I use are

Try the charts here:
http://lastgraph3.aeracode.org/

Does this work? http://lastgraph3.aeracode.org/user/trailofgybe/artists/

Yes, quite fancy, if not entirely user friendly.

the weekly ILXOR charts are up early
Albums http://www.last.fm/group/ilXor/charts?charttype=weekly&subtype=album&range=215

Artists http://www.last.fm/group/ilXor/charts

Tracks http://www.last.fm/group/ilXor/charts?charttype=weekly&subtype=track&range=215

The 2008 albums poll wasn't enough to tempt IlXor boring indie-friendly electrodribble listening bores group members to check out Grouper or Torche or Earth etc.
Hurrah for those who did however check out Paavoharju.

yeah hurrah for them

The ilxor chart might look a bit different this week now the top 10 results are in from the poll?

Hopefully!

i want it to happen for u guys

last.fm has autocorrected half of this ce'cile album to "cecile" and kept the other half as "ce'cile" o_0
