Oh Hey Here’s a New Thing
Friday, December 26, 2008
So, I’ve added Yahoo’s handy little mp3 streaming widget thing (which should be down in the bottom left of the browser window, as well as embedded with a little arrow next to mp3 links), which allows you to stream the mp3s on the site instead of always having to go through all the trouble of doooowwwwnnnnloading them because ugggggggghhhhhh I KNOW.
Par example
: If I was all, “hey, Internet, check out this hot track called “Bbydhyonchord,” you could jam it out forthwith. With but one click.Anyhoozle.
If you’re so inclined, it might be fun to go back and use the little widget thing on those old-school Beatles posts from forever ago. When I made those, the mp3s would automatically open in a new browser window, which worked. Now, though, without the player thing, they automatically download. And you don’t want 80 little mp3 shards floating around your iTunes, now do you?
Hmmm…maybe I’ll start a hot new indie rock blog called “Oh Hey Here’s a New Thing.” Dot Blogspot dot com.
