Last.fm

From Arnout Engelen

last.fm offers some really interesting web services to remix their data.

[edit] festivals

I wonder what would be a nice way of extending and remixing last.fm festival content.

last.fm currently holds a lineup, but not the exact times and locations for bands. might be nice to add that information, and generate a 'festival site' with guide and whatnot.

Editing would be initially open-for-all, but a 'this is my event' link perhaps could close some of it off.

• get event number from user
  • link to http://www.last.fm/events/search?search=1&q=foo for search, perhaps later something on geo.getEvents()
• event.getInfo, cache
• show artists, add 'local info' (start/end times and location)
• allow download of ics file
• show 'block schedule'
• onclick, show last.fm widgets for selected artists
