Hello everyone,
Thanks for checking Radio Pop out and keep those bug reports coming.
Radio Pop -> tracklistings -> last.fm is certainly on the list of things to
look at.
Specially for Backstage-type people there's an API you might want to
look at http://www.radiopop.co.uk/api, including using OAuth to submit data to
Radio Pop. Get in contact if you want to use it.
Looking forward to the next Track Playing revision.
Tristan

Hi Dafyd,
From the looks of it Radio Pop is only intended to record the
radio programmes you're listening too, not the music. But I guess it wouldn't
be too hard for them to add in the link between the programmes you've listened
to and the track listing for those programmes to extrapolate some more
information about your music taste, and ultimatly chuck that at last.fm
Until then though it looks like I might be able to add support
for Radio Pop to my Track Playing website - http://www.trackplaying.com - it is
quite a nice fit. If you are using Track Playing to find out about the artist
playing on the radio, I then know what radio station you're listening to and
can tell Radio Pop, and let you "Pop" aswell. And with the further update I
want to make to Track Playing of having it scrobble the track information to
last.fm, I might have quite a nice little service going on!
FYI I've been making constant updates to Track Playing over the
last week, but I'll post more on those later.
All in all well done to the Radio Labs team, looks like a nice
little prototype you've built there! (Note the link to widgets on
http://www.radiopop.co.uk/help links to http://www.radiopop.co.uk/pulse, and
that says "Page not found".)
Cheers,
Chris

Don't think this has been posted to the list yet: Radio
Labs' Radio Pop [http://www.radiopop.co.uk]. Social radio? Fit!
Now, who's going to get it to talk nicely to Last.fm...?
