  Dear guys, I am conducting a survey about Last.fm user's buying behaviours and I would like to ask you a couple of questions (5 minutes approx.). The survey is part of my dissertation about the impact of online music services, such as Last.fm or Spotify, on the music recording industry. My name is Daniel and your answers will help me to complete my master’s programme in Media Management at the University of Glasgow. Your answers are treated confidential and I am not trying to sell anything, and this is not a promotion or phishing mail. Here the link: http://user.online-eval.de/go/index.php?sid=29462&lang=en Thank you for your help and please answer the questions as completely and honestly as possible. Cheers, Daniel

  I'm writing to update you all on my work, an ethnography of last.fm. I finished a paper on Last.fm and Erving Goffman's theory of impression management. You can read the full text on my blog, here: http://fitzmix213.wordpress.com/2008/12/28/paper-abstract/#more-42 Please, give feedback!

  Query 2: Anybody got a tool to build a tag radio out of a group's connected artists? Manually building a tag radio for a 200-artist group is backbreaking (I've got 7 of them, so I should know!) Group leaders everywhere would thank the inventor of this particular mousetrap!

  Anybody got a Reverse Similar Artists tool similar to the Reverse Neighbors tool? I'd like to be able to tell Listener X that if he likes Artist Y, he'd probably like Artist Z (me, for instance). I don't want to tell Listener X that if he likes me, he'll probably like Artist Y, which is the info now available to me. I can of course go don my Similar Artist list and see where I stand on their lists, which may still miss a lot of Reverse Similar Artists who are not also Similar Artists...
