T-roy B-log Upgrades [Dec 20, 2006]
    Yesterday, Google took the beta tag off the new version of Blogger and I took the opportunity to upgrade the T-roy B-log to the new version. Most of the changes are on my end, but there is one thing that is an awesome tool for the readers of this blog; tags. At the bottom of each post, you will see the labels. Click on a label and you will be able to see all of the things I have posted about in that category since I started this blog. For your conveience, I labled this post with all the tags. Enjoy and check back often.

What Was That Song Again? [Jul 31, 2006]
Were you listening to The Bull (93.7 FM) yesterday around 4:36 pm? Did you hear a song that you just couldn't quite remember the name of? Well, that song was "Why" by Jason Aldean.
Now, just how do I know that? I went to yes.com, put in my zipcode, picked 93.7 FM and it showed me exactly what songs they've played in the last 24 hours and at what time they played. I could also click on the song and buy it from iTunes if I wanted.
What about if I wanted to know their Top 10 most played songs? or the top 100? Both there. #7 is Keith Anderson's "Everytime I Hear Your Name" and #75 is Miranda Lambert with "New Strings", down from #71 last week.
What a nifty site.
