The Wacky World of Widgets

Some of you may have noticed the "now you see it, now you don't" widget from Last.fm that this page has been sporting, directly beneath my Links.

Well, it's supposed to list the tracks I'm listening to as I'm listening to them, and when it does it's great.

The problem is, it only seems to do it when it feels like it, and it didn't feel like it more often than it did. So I've removed it for good this time, and I don't think I'll be suckered into putting it up again. The last thing this page needs is an unreliable widget, given how unreliable our editorial policy is.

Meanwhile, the search continues for more widgets, preferably ones that actually work...
