Stumbling around the del.icio.us blog, I came across playtagger — a neat little Javascript/Flash hack that lets you play mp3s without leaving a webpage. That's very, very slick, and a complete no-brainer for every band and mp3 blogger. This and Flickr's pre-DHTML interface might be the only two worthwhile uses of Flash, anywhere, ever.

UPDATE: I missed it the first time, but there's also a bookmarklet that'll let little ol' web-browsing you use playtagger on any webpage. I've taken it on a spin through largeheartedboy and been very pleased, although there are plenty of links with stupid redirects that confuse it (I'm looking at you, subpop). Maybe I'll take a look through the JS this weekend and whip up a slightly more universal version.

UPDATE 2: Apparently this post reads as jibberish to most people. So look, give it a try. Here's a link to a Lejeune song. It's just a hyperlink to an mp3, but playtagger adds a magic play button. Cool, huh?
