TinySong allows you to share music using a short URL using Grooveshark.
I have created a very simple script that connects to the TinySong API.

The TinySong TCL script for Eggdrop allows you to search for a track using tinysong.com and return the artist, title, album and url.
It works [...]

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently an online radio station I listen to called PlusFM stopped displaying track titles on their stream. This was a pain for quickly displaying the current track you were listening to, however I did figure out a work around&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-567"></span>Here&#8217;s my setup&#8230;</p>
<p>I have two machines in my office, one has a hifi system attached, the other does not.</p>
<p>I use the lightweight media player <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foobar2000">Foobar2000</a> (foobar2000.org), developed by Peter Pawlowski, a former freelance contractor for Nullsoft. So you know it&#8217;s a good alternative to Winamp.</p>
<p>In Foobar2000 I add the location for PlusFM&#8217;s stream:</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://91.121.48.90">http://91.121.48.90</a></p></blockquote>
<p>I then use the last.fm plugin for audio scrobbling in Foobar2000 (<a href="http://www.mp3tag.de/en/fb2k.html">foo_audioscrobbler.dll</a>).</p>
<p>This allows me to feed the track I&#8217;m listening to the last.fm API.</p>
<p>I can then call their API and display the current track I&#8217;m playing on any device, anywhere in the world.</p>
<p>I currently use it in combination with my &#8220;last.fm&#8221; mIRC script, which calls the API, reads the currently playing track, then displays it on screen when you trigger it using the /amp command.</p>
<p>This mean that when I hear a song I like, I could display it to share it with others, or just display it for my own interest.</p>
<p>This was great, until recently, when plusFM changed, and decided to stop displaying the track names on their feed&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>* +HM2K is listening to www.plusfm.net &#8211; current track available on www.plusfm.net &lt;www.last.fm/user/hm2k&gt;</p></blockquote>
<p>I understand that you guys want more hits to your site, but you&#8217;re messing up my last.fm feed.</p>
<p>Perhaps PlusFM could sign up to last.fm and feed the audio scrobbler, then I can simply read it from there!</p>
<p>Or perhaps I could read it directly from your site&#8230;</p>
<p>So it turns out there&#8217;s a feed on the site I can read from instead&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.plusfm.net/titre_plusfm.php">http://www.plusfm.net/titre_plusfm.php</a></p></blockquote>
<p>So I wrote a little script for it called plusfm.mrc&#8230;</p>
<ul>
<li>Download <a href="http://hm2k.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/code/mirc/plusfm.mrc">plusfm.mrc</a></li>
<li>Usage: /plusfm</li>
</ul>
<blockquote><p>[12:16:48 pm] * HM2K now playing Justice &#8211; Genesis &lt;www.plusfm.net&gt;</p></blockquote>
