Don’t Hate the Audio Playa, Hate the Game
I just installed the del.icio.us playtagger on this blog and it’s pretty cool. It’s a single line of code that turns any link to an mp3 file on the page into streaming audio. You simply click the tiny blue “play” button next to the file link and (after a brief buffer period) will begin to play. If you click the file link itself, you can still grab the actual file for download.
Here are a couple audio files to test the feature (…and they have some valuable content to boot!)
