There’s a new group on Last.FM, it’s called The Legion of Ben and it’s for people whose name is also Ben.
It was convieved in a moment of lunatic collaboration with Ben O’Neill, but I still maintain that it’s got a great name.

Well, I would join but..
We seem to have attracted one additional Ben in only a few days, so my plan is to leave it for a bit and see whether any more wander in.
One of the more frustrating things about Last.FM is the number of duplicate groups. For some reason there are two generic ‘Manchester Universities’ groups, as well as dedicated ones for the individual unis themselves. Gah, people should learn to search!
hopes HTML will work in comments
Gah
, people should learn to search – surely that’s like saying “people should learn to read the instructions on forms”? It’s one of those things that would make everything so much easier, but people think they know what they’re doing so they think they don’t need to bother!
Maybe Last.FM should implement a group merging in the same way as they implemented artist merging for misspelt artists :)
OK, that’d be a no on the HTML working :D The bold was supposed to be asterisks and the “gah” quote was meant to be quoted in ‘q’ tags. It’d be nice if it told us it’d strip HTML :P :D
I’m not 100% sure what the state of HTML input is on the current set up. HTML isn’t stripped, but I believe Wordpress may operate with a subset of HTML tags, and strip <q>
The reason for the bolding of your * * text is because I have the excelllent Textile shorthand enabled, but again I’m not sure of any quirks in the way it interacts with HTML input. I’ll be testing it more thoroughly at some point, probably when I go through my old entries to tag them.
Oddly, if I edit your comment I can happily add <q> elements. Strange.
Maybe it just doesn’t trust me with HTML :D It does seem to be showing different HTML in the source now that you’ve edited it. My Linux Firefox seems to be showing a lot of random q tags all over though!
Maybe I should make a “Legion of IBBoard” group – although I should be the only one in there :D
