How much would you pay?
Just seen over at Michele's....."how to use Movable Type's trackback to show what's playing on your WinAmp playlist". Yet another toy to add to my million-mile long to-do list!

UPDATE: Actually this one went rather quickly. It's already added to the default Mae skin and its scaled-down version (1024x768+ or 800x600).



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



My post about it at Scripty has been getting some interesting feedback so far. I'll be playing with it this weekend and posting more info on implementing it. Meanwhile, the "DoSomething" plug-in also works really well, but only in WinAmp 2.x.

This is such a cool thing -- I played with it yesterday and expanded on it a bit; you can see it in my sidebar :) Its worth using WinAmp 2.8 just for this!!

I just got it working -- didn't take long at all! It's over in the sidebar of my default Mae skin. I don't know how much I'll use it since I'm on LaunchCast Plus most of the time, but it's a quick/fun new toy.

I'm in the same boat as you - I'm becoming a LaunchCast Plus junkie and it's all your fault. So I don't know how often I'll use it, but seeing it on Kristine's site today made it VERY tempting!

I'm apparently retarded. I followed the directions but it doesn't work...WAAHHHHH :(

For those that hate the newer Winamps, there's the cool little XML/PHP/HTTP tool called Songwriter. I'm using it on my blog to show the Now Playing info. Other folks have more extensive applications, mine is simple.

There is a push to do an MT integration, but we'll have to wait & see.

I've figured out why it's not working. I don't have tb-standalone - Standalone TrackBack installed. (course now I can't install that cause i'm CGI illiterate.)
