Add Music To Your Blogs

In my last post, I introduced our new embeddable Flash player, which allows you to copy the HTML code needed to share your music on other sites. But what about this site? How do you embed the player on Kompoz blogs?
Adding the player to a Kompoz blog (such as this one) is super simple, but a bit different than the process for sharing your music with other sites. We've enhanced the blog editor to be Kompoz-friendly. Here's how you do it:
First, go to the project or track page that you want to share, and copy the URL for that page to your clipboard. Or, you can click the new Share button on the Flash Player and then click the "Copy URL To Clipboard", instead of the "Copy Embed Code to Clipboard". The point is to get a direct URL to the page.
Next, create a blog. When you're ready to insert your track, click the embed media button on the editor's toolbar, shown below.
Finally, paste in the project's or track's URL in the field labeled File/URL, as shown below.
After you enter the URL, tab to the next field (or click away from that field). The editor will then fill in the rest of the fields automatically for you. Just press the Insert button and you're done!
NOTE: You can use either the URL to a project overview page, or you can use the URL to a track detail page. If you use the project overview page, then the player will play the latest mixdown or the featured track. But if you use the track detail page URL, the the player will always play that specific track.

Any plans for supporting Google Chrome? Kompoz goes berzerk when I view it through Chrome. So far I like Chrome's quick interface and master search/URL box. Very simple.
