taggedhype unmasked
Posted on Januar 10th, 2008 by Igor
It’s me. i’m del.icio.us user taggedhype.
ⅰ started it months ago just to test a simple mashup and advanced uses of rss (eg. working with rss in a sense of a unix pipe).
in the meantime ⅰ almost forgot the little perl hack which works in the cellars of my linux workstation.
nice to see that hypemachine isn’t bugged about this little deriative of their great service.
at least 80.000 audios – discovered by hypemachine – were tagged with the fine webservice of last.fm (think of „http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/1.0/artist/“. $artist .“/toptags.xml“). no wonder del.icio.us pulled the plug and cut the tagged bookmarks to 10.000.
Wouldnt be so sure about them not being bothered by it. Ⅰ used the RSS feed from your de.icio.us account and then looped it through feedburner to create a padcast playable on JW player. They found it and told me Ⅰ had to shut it down. Big bummer tbh.
Oh wow. You are a hero of web mashups!
