/me is listening to E:\Hoobastank\Hoobastank\Hoobastank - 01 - Crawling in the Dark.mp3

I would definetly add it to the end of the post, not the signature. It would probably be interesting to track song listening patterns.
Winamp3 can use winamp2 plugins, by way of a winamp3 plugin.. so if you want to do it via winamp2 plugin, that'd work just as well.
It needs the following configuration options:
- Script Path
- Username
- Password
- Info String (see below)
For Info String, i'd like to do some sort of user-custom formatting, with allowed vBCode, like so:
[i ]I am listening to [b ]%1 - %2[/b ] at %h:%i:%s[/i ]
Which would come out to
I am listening to Yellowcard - Rock Star Land at 1:13:35
And we can assign each part of the ID3 tag a value. %1, %2, %3, so on. And have other values for time, date, etc.
With this, we'd have to limit the length of that string on the client side, and I'd take care of checking it on the server as well.
The password will have to be md5 encrypted before doing the HTTP post, for security reasons.
I'll post more if I think of other things.
Post your thoughts/ideas, too.
Think this is do-able, Wetzel?
