20,000 listeners on last.fm
As of today, we have exactly 20,000 listeners on last.fm, which sounds pretty good, even if a lot of these people have probably just heard one song on the radio.

The latest news is that the new look of MySpace, also known as Project Futura, will launch on October 15. Continue reading
