We’re happy enough with the site and the ISP ordering to start giving out more invites to people who want to be in at the start with the new Playlouder. Once you’re a member you get 3 invites you can send to your friends too. So I hope to see you in the site…

Turns out, unbeknown to me, someone had already invented a buzzword for my “optional ajax navigation” technique.
“Hijax” - because it Hijacks clicks on anchor tags and form submissions, and takes them over with Ajax.
I wonder if his code deals with all the same tricky corner cases that mine does, though.
Turns out someone’s made a dynamic history library for jQuery too. It looks a lot more modern and less verbose than the dhtmlHistory code we’re using at the moment - any kindly souls fancy porting it to work with prototype.js ?
We are very sad to report the demise of our little dog Fopp in an incident involving a very old gramophone player and a large firework.
To commemorate, we used our artist’s impression of this tragic event in one of the banners which guide people from the previous incarnation of Playlouder to the new beta service. We felt it was somehow appropriate.
We have however been asked to remove the image. We apologise unreservedly for the confusion this may have caused HMV and its customers.
