Important - Updating Pre-Release

Fri, 06/04/2010 - 18:18

extensionfm:

Hey Everyone,

We made a mistake when we released 4.0 to the pre-release channel. We accidentally removed the auto-update code.

What does this mean?
If you don’t take any action, the pre-release version you have will be stuck on 4.0.

How are we fixing this?
In the next few hours, your ExtensionFM will open a new window prompting you to click Continue to update to 4.3. This should be pretty painless and just requires that you click Continue. You do not have to restart the browser. After this, the extension will auto-update to all future versions the way it always has.

Why should I update?
ExtensionFM 4.3 has some very nice new enhancements driven directly from your feedback along with a cool new feature:

Core Updates:

Player controls - we’ve added two new buttons to the player that shows up on the bottom of the currently playing page. The first is a Home button. Click it to open your library. The second is a Close button. Click it to remove the bottom player from the page. It will stay closed for the life of the tab.

Undelete - you can now undelete a site that you previously deleted by visiting the site and clicking on the button. The drop-down will indicate that you previously deleted the site and give you an option to undelete it.

New Feature:

Song notifications - You now have the option of receiving a desktop notification any time a new song starts playing. This feature is turned off by default but can be enabled in the Settings page. Honestly, I was never a fan of this with traditional media players and always turned it off. I left it on for ExtensionFM while testing and must admit that I love it. Most songs are new to me and it is great to get a quick notification of the new song along with what site it came from.

If you installed ExtensionFM from the gallery (version 1.3.9), you can disregard this message. These updates will be coming to you sometime next week. No action is required on your part.

Sorry for the hassle and thanks for all of your help in making ExtensionFM great! Please keep the feedback coming.

- The ExtensionFM Team

I must say I am really enjoying the HTC Evo. It’s a brick but the screen and virtual keyboard are huge and great. Sprint in SF is fast too.

Extension Entertainment Inc. Launches ExtensionFM: A Chrome Extension That Turns The Entire Web Into Your Personal Music Library

Thu, 05/20/2010 - 19:25

extensionfm:

San Francisco, CA. May 20, 2010 at Google I/O.

Extension Entertainment Inc. has launched its initial product today: ExtensionFM. ExtensionFM is a Chrome browser extension that allows users to turn the entire web into their personal music library. The extension identifies every MP3 file on pages visited and creates an index of those songs for the user to enjoy. The app is being demonstrated at the Google I/O Developer Sandbox and is available for immediate download at http://www.extension.fm or in the Chrome extensions gallery at https://chrome.google.com/extensions.  

ExtensionFM leverages next generation HTML5 technology to provide several compelling features:

  • Indexes every MP3 file a user encounters as they surf the web.
  • Allows for playback from the initial page, or from within ExtensionFM.
  • Provides a constantly updating stream of music from all the sites a user visits with MP3s.
  • Instant, sustained playback of multiple tracks from those sites - even after the user has left the page.
  • Auto-updates the sites visited - every new MP3 is added to the library.
  • Links directly to Amazon.com for music purchases.
  • Scrobbles to Last.fm.

ExtensionFM blends natively with the browser to create the most compelling web-based music library ever seen. Music discovery and playback has just been taken to a new level” - Dan Kantor, CEO Extension Entertainment, Inc.

In addition, Extension Entertainment announced that is has raised a round of financing from Spark Capital, Betaworks, Founder Collective and Dave Morgan. Bijan Sabet, partner at Spark Captial will join the Extension Entertainment board of directors.

Extension Entertainment Inc. is turbo-charging music discovery on the web. It was founded in 2010 by Dan Kantor, Charles Smith and Marshall Jones and is based in New York City.
