In praise of Last FM's 'Best of 2008'

Really liking the 'Best of 2008' that Last FM have just released. It feels like a magazine when you click onto it, apart from instead of someone, somewhere, deciding what is the best single of the year - it's the listeners.

I like the layout. I like the idea. And it's interesting that Last FM is creating editorial content through its users. There's a biog for each act, almost verging on comment in places, and then there's some multimedia content with videos of the acts. And to be able to listen to the 'Best of 2008' radio - excellent.

What could the third sector learn from this? Creating a presence for the 'end of year' is a desirable thing. List your achievements, show off what you've done and after all everyone loves an end of year list.
