Last.fm vs Pandora and the age of “ad supported” online radio in the uk

I am an avid fan of last.fm, the uk based social music platform and was please to see today the announcement of new functionality within the last.fm website to allow the playing of full-length tracks and albums for free. This new reminded me of the announcement a couple of weeks ago from Pandora that LABELS AND PUBLISHERS FORCE BLOCKING OF PANDORA IN THE UK (there empasis not mine!).

How can one company achieve it but the other say it’s not possible I wonder?

Query Child Of $Page – update to make it work for anyone apart from me!

It seems that back in Oct 2006 when I updated my site design to use a simple plugin to automate the page listing all my plugins I managed to zip up a non-working version of the code.  Thanks to Stephen Rider my incompetence has been discover and I have now released an updated version of the plugin which will actually work for other people!  If you have attempted in the past to use my query child of $page plugin and failed please head over to the page and download a working copy.
