MP3's
I'll be releasing some of my own music here soon, so watch this
spot!
Also, I'll distribute some Ian Eskelin remixes as soon as
the author sends 'em to me
Ok here's the skinny: I once saw this great mp3 search engine called
the SuperSearch (now
gone?) which let you search a lot of mp3 sites very easily by entering
your query once, and then clicking on one of the engines would do that
search. I thought that was a hip idea, so when that site disappeared,
I thought it'd be a great project to code. So, I tried and tried to
write it in perl, and came up with some easier cop-out (but kinda cool
on huge monitors!) searchers, which work like this:
I just couldn't figure out how to do
framesrc=something_thats_not_a_file_but_rather_dynamically_created
without actually creating a file in /tmp, which would have been too
messy. Then, I realized JAVASCRIPT IS THE ANSWER after I visited the
Scorpion's mp3
search page. He does a lot of unnecessary string manipulation, so my
search should be the fastest possible in JavaScript - mine is only 1
line long (plus 12 or so lines defining the location).
