Recent Tunes 2.0
Posted December 6th, 2003 @ 08:39pm by Erik J. Barzeski
Recent Tunes 2.0 is coming along. My previous blog post spurred Jason on a bit, I suppose. So, now my left-hand "Current iTune" is working and so is my list. Jason's not quite finished up the HTTP-GET implementation (c'mon man!), but that's what I'll be using as soon as that works. I'll have a database of all of my recent songs, and my site will query the database. Easy enough! Goooooooo Jason!
I know that at least one of my other friends is waiting for HTTP-GET. Recent Tunes 2.0 will remain freeware.

Some questions, probably easy to answer but I'm clueless...
1) How do you make the URLs work on your recent tunes page? I'm not sure of the variable (or how to put it into the code) for artist, track, etc. Is there something that needs to "wrap" around the ^p, ^t, etc. in the URL?
2) Displaying the current track -- I assume you have to set the blog page templates to extract the data out of the currently playing file page that Recent Tunes uploads, correct?
Thanks for any help.
