Hacking last.fm
There is a way to download / save radio streams from last.fm using lastfmproxy and streamripper. I wanted yesterday to save some music from last.fm, but not from radios, but from Artist page. Sometimes there are full length music files, which you can listen to, but you cannot download it, as shown below:
What to do, if you want to download these files?
1. First of all, you need Mozilla Firefox (I'm using FF3) with the FireBug addon.
2. Go to the artist page
3. Open FireBug window. Go to the net tab
4. Click PLAY on the song
5. Watch the FireBug Net reports
6. You will see two *.mp3 files, right-click the second (lower) and then Copy Location / Copy Link (depends on Firefox and FireBug version)
7. Paste this link to the new tab and press Enter
8. Download of this will start shortly
Hooray! You can download mp3 files from last.fm!!! :D
Note: Unfortunately, mp3 are named by the hash and there are no ID3 tags, you have to add them manually.

Today is a hard day. First of all, I've been playing Frets On Fire till 4 a.m. with Gabrys. That was A LOT of fun. And a lot of whiskey, which definitely didn't help to beat the high scores :D We barely woke up in the morning and went to the office to serve and to protect the interests of all Wikidot users.
I promised to put photos from the latest Gabrys's grill party. I'll do it in the evening, when I'll be at home.
Today is a big day. We started preparation for Pro Accounts initiation. We're searching beta testers. Guys have posted a thread. I was just overwhelmed by the response of the community. We are very happy because of that. It means, that people care about Wikidot and — what is more important — want to collaborate in Wikidot improvement process. Thank you guys!
P.S. Frets On Fire rulez!!! :D

It has been a while since last post, but I had a lot of work on Wikidot and I didn't have much time to put my interests in it. I promise, I will write posts more regularly.
Today I uploaded a new theme, I called it Glass (I dunno why :P). I was creating it yesterday night. I hope you like it. If you want, please add your comments and/or rate it on http://www.themes.wikidot.com/glass.
Also, we have almost finished Wikidot For Education project. I hope it will start at least at the end of the week. For more details go to the Wikidot For Education page. Education Account will be free and, if needed, will provide enhanced functionalities and a higher file storage for special requests (also for free). We want to support education for free and give the oportunities to improve education standards. Using simple words, make high school easier :)
Today is a big party. Gabrys is making a grill-party. There will be a lot of meat, beautiful women (meat?) and beer (not meet). I am coming with Asia and I hope this will be a good party. I will put some photos after the party. Probably on Wednesday.
I am still waiting for new album of Lunatic Soul — a project of Mariusz Duda, the vocalist/basist and co-founder of Riverside — my favourite band.
