They do have a few technical bugs (as do Flickr) but that’s because they’re constantly trying out new things and improving it. It’s part of the whole movement that has been dubbed <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2" REL="nofollow">Web 2.0</A>.<BR/><BR/>Better than being stuck in the dark ages.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally, weekly charts is an area they appear to have been having a lot of problems with recently. They were a few days late last week due to some server problems. You can check their <A HREF="http://www.last.fm/forum/21713" REL="nofollow" TITLE="last.fm support forum">support forum</A> for up-to-date system status.<BR/><BR/>But yes, it bothers me too (much more than it should really), being out-of-date.

If so what for? I don’t really see the incentive. What’s in it for me once I have all those contacts? I’m not saying there <EM>is</EM> nothing, I honesly haven’t spent the time working it out yet!<BR/><BR/>And as an experienced web designer, I can confirm: in terms of design, usability and technology the website is <STRONG>LAME</STRONG>. Though I’m sure <EM>Tom</EM> doesn’t really care too much so long as his pennies keep rolling in.<BR/><BR/>I my last job, we did all the digital marketing for the international launch of Brahma beer and this included working with Tom (Myspace) to set up Brahma actually as a user on the site: <EM>An advert as a user!!</EM>.
