My Shows: The Last.fm iPhone Concert Calendar
If you’re a Last.fm user and you own an iPhone, you may like My Shows, a personalized iPhone concert calendar tool that I made with Yahoo! Pipes. To add it to your phone, visit http://bit.ly/myshows from your iPhone’s web browser, enter your Last.fm user name and zip code (works best in larger US cities), hit “Run Pipe”, and then bookmark your personalized page for future use. Features:
- Personalized Concert List: A simple, clean list of upcoming shows in your town based on the bands you listen to through Last.fm plus similar artist recommendations (concert details via Eventful).
- Venue Details: Venue contact information and reviews powered by Yelp Mobile.
- Maps & Directions: Simple one-click access to maps and driving directions via the native Google Maps iPhone app.
- Music + Video Samples: Listen to full-length MP3’s from the artist(s) via Seeqpod or watch music videos from YouTube right from your phone’s media player (Note: a few songs / videos return errors due to bad links from Seeqpod or YouTube… if so, just try another).
This isn’t meant to be an exhaustive list of every concert in your area, but rather a quick “must see” list of shows along with all the information you need on the venue and band.
Let me know what you think. Enjoy the show.
