EricEric Announcing Our New Player Widget!

Matas, our Flash-guru, have spent considerable amounts of time updating the SoundCloud player widget, and today we’re happy to tell you that it’s finally out there! Here’s a brief overview of the new features:

1. Volume control!

That’s all for now, hope you enjoy it! We have even more feature for the player planned–and please don’t hesitate to let us know in case there’s something you’re missing! And here it is in full effect, featuring no less than 378 remixes of Imogen Heap!

    I would be very interested to see SoundCloud posted on facebook as a player. Anyone can put music on facebook one song at a time, but having a player on facebook that each person could have their own playlist of songs and what not is what I am looking for. I may be wrong SoundCloud may work for facebook but I might be doing something wrong.
    Thanks for reading-looking into the future for days.
