Greasemonkey Userscripts
The GGS Suite began life in mid-December, 2010, as a free Last.fm scrobbler userscript for Grooveshark, written from scratch. It has since morphed into three userscripts based on the same basic Last.fm scrobbler code to scrobble from Grooveshark, Bandcamp, and SoundCloud. (Credit for the idea of making Last.fm scrobbler userscripts for Bandcamp and SoundCloud goes to userscripts.org user forteller.)
Thanks to the support of an enthusiastic userbase, the Grooveshark and Bandcamp userscripts have become relatively stable and user-friendly over their few months of existence. Thus, when I decided to write the SoundCloud scrobbler, I also felt the code was stable enough that it made sense to re-organize some of the last.fm scrobbling code, so other people can more easily write their own userscripts based on the GGS Suite. The scripts available under the open source FreeBSD license.
If you want to write your own userscript based on the GGS Suite, I'd recommend checking out the code for the SoundCloud Last.fm scrobbler (see below for link). I might write a guide or something. Eventually.
