A few months back I had discussed how to use keywords in firefox, and make your browsing experience better. Well, if you’ve begun using keywords, you might as well use them for grooveshark to play almost any song in the world.
The stumbling block however, is that grooveshark’s keyword can not be made in the same way as we had described earlier. And the reason for that is, that the current grooveshark website is made entirely in flash. Right clicking on the search bar, doesn’t give you the regular options you expect! So what do you do? Don’t despair. I have a nice piece of nugget for you :)
In firefox, press Ctrl+Shift+B to open up the bookmarks library. Then click on “Organize”, followed by “New Bookmark”.
A new window should come up. Fill in the empty fields with the following:
Today, while aimlessly checking the gtalk status messages of my friends, I found a link to a news article next to Manu’s name. It mentioned thatGrooveshark.com, one of my favorite websites had reached 1 million users! What made it all the more special to me was that this site is a venture by 3 Gators! Go Gators!
For the uninitiated (and not part of the one million..tsk tsk :P), grooveshark is a site where you can listen to almost any streaming song within a few clicks, as opposed to, I don’t know, hunting the internet just to find that the rare song you’re searching for IS rare. What makes it best is that you can purchase the song if you like it (at a pretty cheap price, I believe), thus giving the owners to the rights of the songs something to be happy about too. For a person like me, who almost always finds himself getting an urge to listen to a particular song I have heard years ago, grooveshark.com does the job for me just fine, sparing me the trouble of fishing through my highly unorganized music library, one that I have been promising myself to fix since the past 5 years.
While we’re on the topic of mobile phones, let us continue some interesting discussion on that topic.
I wonder if I have ever told you this, but I own a Blackberry Curve 8320. As much as I love it, I also hate the fact that it doesn’t do a lot of stuff that the iPhone can, including being touch sensitive. This always has me mining the internet for killer apps that would make me love my phone even more.
