awesome mix Jean. keep on posting more mixes… i really enjoy seeing what you’re listening too.
Ooooh, how about this… make a playlist of these songs on Last.fm and embed it in this Wordpress post for all to hear.
Can you do that? I’ve actually been trying to close my Last.fm account (I keep clicking on to delete, but it won’t disappear) because I haven’t been using the site at all.
Yeah, there is some quirkiness to Last.fm, but I quite enjoy it. I use the “add to playlist” button to bookmark songs I come across when listening to artists’ and other users’ radio stations (better if you have the latest software). You’ll need at least 15 songs I think in order to be able to begin listening to the playlist. You can then embed it, your radio station, or anyone other’s by clicking on the embed button and building the widget from there… haven’t had the opportunity to do it myself yet.
Cool, I’ll look into it.
Bones, you should post that mix you sent me by email!
your playlist could become quite costly: http://www.asahi.com/english/Herald-asahi/TKY200801090069.html
guess it’s still just a proposal.
quite liked holding a competition in my head of the strangest thing I’ve seen someone doing on a bicycle in tokyo. maybe a guy with a broken leg and crutches riding a bike tops it atm.

Oh man, that’s horrible! I mean, a lot of them make sense (holding an umbrella, talking on the phone — anything that makes you hold only one handle), but please don’t ban music…
Thanks for sharing that mix, Bones! Look forward to giving it a go on my next ride.
I guess if the revision does go through you could add a basket to the front of your bike and fit a sub woofer in there. Add a solar panel on top to power it and a holder on your handle bars for easy access to the ipod.
Then you’d really be sharing your playlist.
Or, by then, they’ll have released some wireless earphones.
