With all this talk of widgets I thought you might like a sneak peek of our ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Player + Last.fm Yahoo! widget

Last.fm is a social network around your listening habits. By creating and updating your profile with the songs you have listened to, Last.fm holds a record of your listening and offers musical and social recommendations. There are plugins to help you keep your profile up-to-date as you listen to iTunes, Winamp etc. but you can't update your profile while listening to the radio… until now.

Our experimental / prototype / beta (sorry, but we can't guarantee the quality of service) widget asks you to sign in to your Last.fm account and choose a ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio station (only Radio 1, Radio 2, 6 Music and 1Xtra are available at the moment). The currently playing song is retrieved and is added to your profile (unless you decide to add songs manually) and other recommended artists are displayed.
