| Site Update Software Release |
OK, I finally made a simple JavaScript music player which seems good enough to release. It doesn't use any streaming music service's API. (I might write more about that in another blog post.)
All it can do is play MP3s hosted on a web server, and it's still rather rough around the edges.

In a couple ways, it's not quite as nice as VGRemix.com's very nice (and similar) web player, because I didn't bother to create a loading progress bar, or show the song duration.
But, you can play/pause, stop, skip to anyplace in the song, and change the volume. And, you can go to the next or previous tracks, since there's a very basic queue.
But, thanks to this little project, I'm now convinced that, given time and freedom from having to worry about money, I could probably eventually create something even nicer than MOG's web player.
If you like my web player and would like me to expand it, donations or microdonations and purchases of goods (still none available yet) and services are welcome.
I'd like to build something more complete, but, that's all I can afford to do for now.
