Cool, but I would like to have a way to know more about the artist/tune. With the current interface, it's not even possible to select the text of an artist's name or the song title to copy and paste it.

I don't have a twitter account, so I can't even look around the site or find out more about it. EDIT: Not so much of a jab, rather just to let you know you've maybe lost a customer or two because its not worth the payoff for me to get an account to just look at your site (I don't know if its a site ill like enough to justify that effort!)

It's worth turning off quite a few people for our chat to use twitter handles. The conversation is quite different thanks to a bit of transparency.

Good suggestion, we're just trying to get something out there. Email us anything else you come up with 01@helloworld.im

Console.fm is a way to listen to the top electronica charts, it requires Twitter log in to use the channel based chat system. We made this in 72 hours as a side project to listen to better music.

interesting how does it play it? how do you play it?
