I built and ran this website between 2000 and 2001, combining passion for popular music and programming. It was listed by MTV's now defunct MusicNewswire as one of the then nascent web's top twenty sources, alongside Billboard and VH1. The most exciting part of it — for a 13/14-year-old excited by new music — was receiving scores of pre-release CDs from record companies. The entire project was written entirely from scratch (frameworks and libraries were not the norm back then!) in PHP linking to a MySQL database, with HTML as well as a little CSS and JavaScript for the frontend; the code is available here.

Wheatus are set to knock Atomic Kitten's Whole Again off the top of the UK Singles chart. They have sold 17,000 copies of their single, Teenage Dirtbag. Atomic Kitten look set for the number two position as they have sold nearly 3,000 less.

Papa Roach, Fun Lovin' Criminals and Starsailer are all set to have new entries in the Top Ten.
