Hey, so since people keep telling me they don't know what I listen to because I have no last thingy set up I'm trying to do just that but I don't fully understand how it works. Can someone give me a hand? I have an account set up, I've downloaded and installed the scrobbler or whatever it is, but what do I do next? Will it just add things from ym iTunes as I listen to it or what? And how do I share my profile with other people?

It should be set up to scrobble now, listen to something and it should appear on your profile. As for sharing just head to your profile by pressing on your usrname at the top right, then copy the url. Glad you're getting one, I am one of the people who doesn't really know what you listen to.

if it installed there should be an icon maybe on your desktop called last.fm.....when you are listening it should say "scrobbling on" and then the bands should appear on you last.fm page

i'm actually a complete idiot when it comes to computers....i could not even figure out isketch....so i may not be the best

Gothic Country, very dark and unlike most of the counrty people hear before judging the genre.

Yep that's me. I think I'm just against newer country. I really like this.

@ Janszoon, it's great you're starting to use last.fm. I guess James and bob. explained how everything works. Just post a link to your profile and we'll add you as a friend. :) My last.fm is in my signature.

Thanks for the help! I have the link in my signature now if you want to see what I listen to. I have to say I'm actually kind of surprised by some of the things at the top of the "most listened" list for me.

Heh. I really have no excuse with this stuff since I'm a web designer and spend all day in front of a computer, but for some reason it's just not obvious to me how to set up these things sometimes.

The Third Eye Foundation - Ghost (1997)

I hope you haven't heard it already. This is electronic/experimental/drum 'n' bass project of Matt Elliott of Bristol scene. Very atmospheric and off-center. It blew my mind a while ago. May it do the same to you. :)
