I've been looking for an excuse to use Blogger's new poll thingy for some time.Regular commenter morisetn thinks that I should disable the auto-play functionality in my Last.fm widget:
If you don't fix that last.fm box I'm going to have to boycot your otherwise excellent blog. It scares the poop out of me! Plus, at work, it means that I can't just innocently check to see if you've replied. Leave the player there, just turn the auto-play off!So it looks like I have to put it to the vote, even though my blog is not normally a democracy.
What do you think?
Head over to the right of your screen and scroll down to underneath the Last.fm widget and make your vote count!

Some reasons to disable auto-play:
1) You have to wait for it to start before you can click stop. I think that's bad design on the part of last.fm.
2) It starts up again on every click to a new page on your site.
All good points.
I wonder why they don't have a thingy where you can "pop it out"?
BTW I was one of the back-stabbing Yes voters, but what I hope is a mitigating factor is that I have "dikki radio" saved as a stream in Amarok (my favourite music player, which has native support for last.fm streams). So I hope you keep scrobbling regardless of the outcome of this poll.
I certainly hope you were only one of the backstabbing, two-timing, yellow-bellied, sons (and possibly daughters) of beeyitches who voted yes.
On the plus side, I'm a little surprised that this many people bothered to vote.
Going to have to check out Amarok. Rather like the Mike Oldfield reference - it's most appropriate.
Billions of bilious blue blistering barnacles!
You forgot to call me lily-livered.
Thundering typhoons!
I did too.
Consider yourself that too. ;-)
