“As you listen to music via the excellent Pandora music service each song gets submitted to your profile on Last.FM. You’re listening to music, so why shouldn’t you be able to account for it?”

If you like Pandora.com and Last.fm, then you should check out our Squeezebox as you can have both through your stereo . . or in multiple rooms . . or with your computer off (OK that’s very likely to happen to Warren, but some people like the idea).
I love the lightning cross story. It’s up there with the priest whose microphone electrocuted him during a baptism.
the priest article has something very poetic about it.
I love music and this Pandora seems awesome. Interesting links, particularly the Rumanian witch one. Liked that.
