!!! IF THE EXTENSION STOPS WORKING, REPORT ON GITHUB ONLY !!! https://github.com/david-sabata/Chrome-Last.fm-Scrobbler/issues

When you firstly come to a supported website a new tab opens where you have to authorize the extension to use the Last.fm API. You need to do this only once, when the extension is firstly installed; it isn't needed on updates (which are automatic, of course).

The status of scrobbler is shown in the omnibox (the addres field) on the right by the icon. Optionally you can enable desktop notifications and Youtube specific statuses (as shown on the extension preview).
