In 2006 I visited Last.fm in their rather run down offices in Whitechapel, London. It was the kind of near derelict 1960's building, you'd expect to find a sweatshop not one of the UK's most innovative tech firms. I shared a coffee with Last.fm's Martin Stiksel, brewed in a kitchen looking like something out of the Young Ones. Looking at the state of the sink I was rather more worried about catching a virus than I've been during any tech-related interview since. Well they've moved on and with this they've confirmed their success.
