well yes obviously, but this group is already here and active, noone's going to start a group called 'Talk About Recent Changes To Last.fm' just to satisfy your pedantry!

No, that's what the Feedback forum is for.

Yes, click on the Forums link at the bottom of each page for the "live" forums.

Heh, I've never been told I have pedantry. :)

Isn't it still in public beta? In which case it is appropriate to still post here, although having said they, staff did ask us not to and directed us to Feedback and Ideas months ago.

We all wish you would let us decide of the look of our page. We are your advisers, if only we could be proud of our page. We are not anymore. Our advice for the time being, is that last.fm is not an option, it is not professional anymore because its design has gone 20 years back and looks like a basket of chicken wings.

Well, you just have to put up your band website if you want costumization.
I don't like the chalk header myself but I think you're exagerating a bit.

It's not beta if there aren't two versions of the site: release (www.last.fm) and beta (beta.last.fm). Regardless of whether or not we think the release version should have been. ;)

hmm. I seem to recall there couldn't be two versions of the site because they didn't have enough staff, so they made the beta live, such as it was, and made it 'public beta'.

To my mind, seeing as there is still so much to do and as quite a few, big, features have yet to return, I still see it as public beta. So I give my feedback and I'm trying to continue to be patient on this understanding.

Okay, so I know it's petty but I hope the "Subscriber" button won't stay right within the user picture. It looks dumb and really annoys me in the worst way. Like...some insect I can't just swat away!

Or is that an issue with Safari? I haven't tried with any other brother yet.

So I give my feedback and I'm trying to continue to be patient on this understanding.Your comments are the first I've ever heard of a 'public beta', Babs. It obviously is a 'public beta' in practice judging by the huge number of bugs and problems the site has but none of the Last.fm blogs or any other public announcements I've read have said anything about 'public beta'. They just say it's here and it's great.

Despite the trashing of a really superior earlier version site and the instant scrapping without warning of user's projects and loved features on the old site (user tag radios, group recommendations, recommendations to all friends, embedding functions, the list goes on), I still have huge appreciation for Last.fm - there's still really nothing else like it. So I try to be patient too, but fail sometimes!

This is due to continued frustration with what I see as a degeneration of the site, involving the sad loss of valued features and things just very often not working properly two months after release. I'm really not here to be an unofficial tester of a huge commercial site and I'm not that happy about having being forced into that position in an ongoing way with the new version.

its live, there is no beta.

I just get the impression last.fm have such a small team for something this size that they couldn't keep the beta going much longer without collapsing under the strain, so if it meant going live without some features incompatible with the new system missing then so be it. Personally I'm happy because for me what i gained in the change was greater then what I lost..I appreciate for many this is not the case...I was never a big user of reading or music recommendations from other users.

On the thing about it being buggy...I dont see it as any more or less buggy then the old one was now, that had its odd quirks as well.

You're partially right, in that they said it was too difficult to maintain two separate sites, and it was indeed pretty much a public beta for awhile. But as spacefish said, if "beta" is not part of the URL, it's not a beta, regardless of whether it looks or works like one. As soon as it goes www.last..fm, it's the official LIVE site.

i soooooo love the new things in the layout. trackcounter is nice, great to be able to see which media player other users use. and ne new "now listening"-symbol is also nice. and i have less pictures, cause when there's none, there's nothing displayed.
Awesome!
