AIMP2 Player + Last.fm
If you are a fan of this great music player (just like I am) and use Last.fm (just like I do), you probably searched already for a plugin to allow you to upload your played tracks to the website.
Search no more. Because the audioscrobbler code is open source, someone made a AIMP2 compatible pluging with it. I’ll be hosting it on my website so it’s easier to find for the ones searching for it.
After downloading the plugin, it only takes some simple steps:
Photoshop CS4 Sneak Peak
Justin Seeley posted last week on his blog, a early preview of Photoshop CS4.
A couple of the new Photoshop features are already public. True Edge, a new way to enhance the edges of your selection allowing a more defined line between the subject and background. And the second and final feature revealed to date was a non-destructive (highly-enhanced) dodge and burn tool.
AIMP2
I have to say I don’t like to use iTunes that much and I’m the proud owner of an iPod! Although iTunes have a nice look with that .Mac like style it’s too cumbersome for me. I normally have a large quantity of music music files in my hard drives and most of the time they are not very organized… iTunes let me organized it… by cut, paste.. rename… cut…rename. NO!
I’ve always been a fan of Winamp, even though I stopped using it around2 years ago. I loved the diversity of options available to skin Winamp, visualization plugins, sound enhancers , etc. But Winamp sound out-of-the-box lacked a bit compared to iTunes, Windows Media Player or other well known audio players.
I used and still use Billy for great part of my computer listening sessions while I’m working since it’s so lightweight and simple. But when you want to have some library functions it’s too simple for that.
That’s when AIMP2 appeared and since then I’ve never looked back. AIMP2 is great. It’s all I wanted and more. It’s Winamp with a face lift but better… and it’s free!
