Last.FM API experiment
I had an experiment with Last.FM’s API. I used Simple XML and PHP and I accessed an XML web service. You can check out the experiment in Banda.PH‘s Top 20 Pinoy Rock Songs. So, it does not necessarily mean that the songs listed in the page are actually the top 20 Pinoy Rock songs. This
