Lyric line at bottom of posts....

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I haven't been able to find the answer...what plugin or software generates the (seemingly) random lyric line everyday?

Gabe and Tycho don't read the forums much, and they're pretty much in charge of the actual website. Alpha might know, but he's always behind the scenes.

Shooting Tycho an email might help more.

I was under the impression that Tycho added those lyrics manually.

I'm 99% sure Tycho just writes those himself. He used to link the actual .mp3 before music piracy was a bad thing.

Yes, there was a newspost a while back where he talked about it. Dude listens to a lot of random music, essentially just streaming whatever strikes his fancy. So he pulls out something. It's random in the sense that his music taste is random. If you mouse over it it'll tell you what the song is.

It's why the dude liked the Zune so much -- subscription based music where you can listen to anything without caring about hearing it again is right up his alley.

He writes it himself. if you mouseover you'll see what song he's talking about, and every now and then a joke or something as well (like when he linked a linkin park song, these wounds they will not heal or whatever)
