It provides a user interface for many options that are not part of the Option dialog in Firefox.

This release includes several new options, Czech locales and some bug fixes. In addition this version adds a menu entry for the new App menu introduced in the upcoming Firefox 4 (Windows 7 only).

My script displays the reply tracker you usually find at http://www.last.fm/user/*username*/replytracker on your profile page.

Configuration

screenshot22After you have installed the script you don’t need to configure anything, but you can change the appearance of the reply tracker. Just click “Settings” next to “Reply Tracker” and several options appear.

After you have installed the script you will see three textfields in the right column. Fill in your username, the highest number of rows that should be displayed and the seconds the reply tracker waits before reloading.

Spam a thread

Spam threadIf you want to remove a thread from the reply tracker at all you can “spam” a thread. Simply hover over an entry, click on the little button which appears and the thread will be gone.
If you want a thread to be displayed again just click “Settings” and set “Show spammed threads” to yes. After you have clicked “Save Options” all threads you spammed will be displayed and you can unspam a thread by clicking on the little green button which appears when you hover a thread.

The first one is Harmoy (1.0). It has been a nominee for the Extend Firefox 3 contest and not only supports pandora.com but virtually every player that is supported by FoxyTunes. In addition it provides information about currently playing songs.

The other one is LastFM Firefox Extension. This extension focuses on song submission from your Pandora radio. Optional messages notify you when Pandora plays a new song and when it is submitted to Last.fm.

In case you don’t know what Greasemonkey is, visit the website if you don’t want to miss a great extension for Mozilla Firefox.

This userscript changes the appearance of a last.fm profile page. It replaces the player on the right with the user information in the middle. At least for me this seems to be a better use of space since I don’t use the player anyway.
