Well, almost. I just took a peek at the date I joined, and it will be ten years exactly tomorrow. Close enough at this range.

I guess that there have been a few changes over the years. You can see the way it looked back then more-or-less on the wayback machine. Apparently, my tastes have not changed greatly.

But, that is not the case. There have been so many artists that I've found on Last.fm that have become a permanent part of my listening since then. It was actually here where I first heard Tegan and Sara, and they…

I have updated the userscript that shows your top tracks and albums for an artist.

The page for the script is on the User Scripts group.

The script itself in on the GreasyFork script repository.

The script does work with TamperMonkey on Chrome and the old Opera (12.x) browser, differently. Opera allows you to change the time period viewed and switch between album and track counts in the artist page. Chrome eeds you to do that through the TamperMonkey menu.

I think Firefox/greasemonkey should work the same as Chrome. I've not tried it.

Because of the access problems on UserScripts.org, I have started moving over scripts from that site to GreasyFork.org.

Check out the front page of User Scripts to see which have changed - a number will be copied over within the next while, but I won't be issuing notices for each one, so keep checking.

This is a bit of a blast from the recent past - there used to be a website that would display your album release dates, and calculate the age of your music. That is now gone.

However, there is now a userscript (currently only for Opera) that does a similar task.

Leave any comments on the group thread. See also the thread in stats.

The script that hides sections of last.fm pages has been updated for the new artist, album and track pages.
