Some of the benefits of having a Hype Machine user account are cool new ways to share the music you discover.
Connect your account to Twitter and the machine will auto-tweet your favorite songs. Connect to Last.fm and you’ll be able to keep track of everything you listen to on your Last.fm profile! Here’s how:
Step 1: After you are logged in, hover over My Profile, then click on Settings.
Step 2: Click the External Services tab and sign in to your Twitter or Last.fm account. We use OAuth for authentication, so you do not need to enter a password. Do make sure you’ve checked the “Enable” box for each service you want to use, and click Save.
Step 3: You’re done! The Hype Machine will now automatically post tracks you’ve loved to Twitter, and track songs you’ve listened to on your Last.fm profile.

Good show, sport!
Great news! A fun way of integrating Twitter without it being too invasive : )
doesn’t work. my love track on hypem no apear in my twitter and i’m listening don’t show on my lastfm 🙁 why whyyyy :'(
last.fm scrobbling not werkin’ ….
last.fm scrobbling not workin’ 🙁
Last FM scrobbling now working this week.
It does not generate tweets for me 🙁
Heyyy, scrobbling and tweets are fully back on now for everyone!
🙁 my tweets aren’t working. is there any lag in how soon it shows up to one’s twitter? also last.fm not working for me still..
Can’t you use Oauth for Twitter? It’s a bit uncomfortable to give the login combo to you.
James – we are about to migrate to Oauth in the next week or so. This feature has been available long before Oauth support was enabled and so we only have a chance to migrate to it recently.
不错哦！喜欢last.fm那个，不过Twitter被墙，连不上，~~~~(>_<)~~~~
Yeah, so step one doesn’t happen for me (tried firefox and chrome)
The drop down bar just has loved songs. (screenshot: http://tinypic.com/r/r8uq3d/3)
Gah, hype machine is taunting me every time it tells me i can edit my profile/have last.fm/twitter connectivity by going in to settings, and I can’t. Damn you drop down bar.
Damn.
You.
Any word on porting this to oauth? I seriously am not giving out my account details and I honestly think it’s a bad idea for any responsible programmer to encourage this sort of behavior. The web has to settle on some sort of credential sharing system, and it looks like oauth is that system.
All that said I want to tweet from hypem seamlessly, so c’mon c’mon.
Last FM scrobble doesn’t work for me! It doesn’t say what I’m listening to or show any songs on my Last FM page. What’s up!?
Nothing happen when I hover. Is it because of Google Chrome ?
nope…. scrobbling not working
last.fm scrobbles haven’t been working for a while. have logged out and logged back in of hypem, and done the same for the last.fm settings tab. nothing.
Thank you for a great feature. Like other users, however, I have encountered a problem: sometimes scrobbles and tweets don’t work (it can be for a day or a week). I’ve noticed that when a song I listen to isn’t scrobbled, it doesn’t appear in my “Listening History” either. Hope this helps you fix the problems. Keep up the great work.
Thanks.
why can’t I go into “settings”? nothing happens when I hover “dashboard”.
Yeah, same problem, when I hover over my dashboard, and try to sync my Tweets, I don’t get a drop down menu, like the screenshot in step one suggests. I’ve tried to on Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and IE 8. Is there a different way to do this, or is it broken?
one of the most cool things I’ve seen lately!
my scrobbling doesnt work too :<
Scrobbling doesn’t work 🙁
Empty hype shite as scrobbling doesn’t work!

Well, only just joined an after readin all the – comments wonderin if I shuda bothered. Oh well, nothing ventured as they say…….here goes…..
still not scrobblin.
Scrobble works for me. 🙂
last fm scrobbling aint werkin!
Twitter thingy ain’t working… But at least it scrobbles 🙂
I love Last FM!
Last FM is ace!
Last.fm scrobbling has not been working since the hype machine revamp. 🙁
I thought that it would sync my favorite Last.fm artists with the artists I want to to follow on hypeMachine… That would be far more usefull!
This isn’t working for me either (the last.fm one — didn’t try the twitter). 🙁 I hope you guys find a fix soon cause I’d really like to use the scrobbler on here.
that’s a genius idea to connect Hype Machine with LastFM! love it!
wont connect to my account, get the following error.
UNKNOWN API REQUEST GET: Array ( [action] => lastfm_callback?username=octochops [token] => a1d7ac274dc9199e32a9fb4e9b75d36f ) POST: Array ( ) 500 Request error
I got the same problem as octochops :

Scrobbling isn’t working for me either! 🙁
Last FM лажа еще та

Working on it…
Cela ne scrobble pas sur last.fm??
Not working for me…..What are you doing guys ?
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I filled out a survey suggesting this years ago, I’m happy you finally came to. I’m a long time user, back to when elbo.ws was actually decent competition. I knew I could count on you guys eventually!
Scrobbler works pretty much neat on Firefox. Maske sure accounts are connected under settings and wait until the song finishes. Great work with the integration guys 🙂
Newbie here. currently based in Belgium. Connected mu account to last.fm, but tracks are not scrobbling.
это круто!!

Scrobbling is also broken for me as of today. Firefox 10.0.2.

Scrobbling to Last.fm doesn’t seem to work anymore, is something broken? [Firefox 11, Mac OS 10.5]
NOT WORKING. This would be so great if only it actually worked.
Until July 28, 2012, was working scrobbling on Last.fm. Since yesterday does not work. There ANYONE who can explain what happens again?
