( Offtopic: I made a chrome extension for Spotify, which convert spotify links to links with mouseover info, for example image of the album, artist name, title of track, popularity.

Chrome even have it's own built-in appstore ( Chrome Web Store) where users can install extension/apps, without having to restart their browser.Īnother approach to get Spotify to the web is to use Native Client (NaCl) to compile C/C++ code for the web.
