What do you think of the Droid?

I'm starting to wonder what humanity did before someone invented weekends
-
A web page for each user which links to all the playlists that the user has created
Smart playlists: playlists based on criteria and which dynamically update. These are really just glorified saved searches but it means I could set up a search for artists that aren't yet in Spotify and get notified when they turn up.
Support for libre.fm as well as last.fm
A web-based API so that other people could improve the service with things like automated recommendations.
Make use of MusicBrainz. Using or just cross-referencing the MusicBrainz identifiers would make it a lot easier to find music. It could be as simple as a link from the Spotify web page for a track to the MusicBrainz page for that track.
Web pages for each track and playlist which are human-friendly as well as search engine crawlable

Did they buy you some vinyl records?

It depends. What do you want in a phone?

It was a pretty good event given: an audience consisting mostly of .Net developers, a terrible venue (no 3g in the main hall and the audience sits in darkness which means the speakers can't build rapport as they can't see anyone out there) and it's a single track conference so there that isn't much interaction or content.
I tend to prefer multi-track events with plenty of hallway time.

That's the guy. I shook his hand afterwards because I was so impressed by him.
-
His demos aren't working and I'm not really impressed by his slides but he's engaging enough that I haven't left yet
-
His name is Pekka Kosonen. This looks like a good honest session
-
But apparently Qt is going to fix it
-
It was actually a good session considering the kind of people here.
I liked the JQuery session too. It showed some interesting concepts
-
Good article. Thanks for sharing.
