The creators of the fantastic Zempt blogging tool has created a fantastic new plugin for iTunes for Windows, that lets you display what you’re playing in blog posts. Minimal Verbosity introduces WMPtunelog; it is very simple to use and install. Just download it, install it, close both iTunes and Zempt (if they’re open), then restart them both. Now click the music icon and it now displays what you’re listening to in your blog post. You can see an example of how it can look below.
This also works on other blog updating tools like w.bloggar, but I personally favor Zempt out of them all. Zempt doesn’t destory my posts, or crash as often as the other programs do. It’s surprisingly stable and feature-rich – a few times w.bloggar went to make a post and it didn’t, and I would have to retype the post.
The link to WMPtunelog is broken, is there any other link?
The link isn’t broken, the site is just down because it has exceeded the bandwidth limit set by the host. It should be back up.
I went ahead and uploaded it to my webserver, and you can grab it here: http://www.goodblimey.com/WMPtunelog_1_0.exe
That’s what I meant to say, anyhow I appreciate you uploading it for me :)
Since I can’t view the page on it right now..
So does this thing only show your current playing with a new post, or can it be used to update a current playing that is just constantly updating in realtime?
A Lifestyle Change
A little hint into what might get posted to this site: music, movies, computer tips / tricks, unfunny jokes, and the like. I found an iTunes plugin to let me insert into my posts what song I’m currently listening to. Very cool gizmo.
