Song Signature Plug-in for Microsoft Windows Media Player 10
Now Playing: "Red Sky" by "Sepiatunes" in Windows Media Player 10…
Welcome to the Song Signature plug-in for Microsoft Windows Media Player 10!
If you're already familiar with e-mail signatures in Microsoft Outlook, then you know that you can customize your signature with text or pictures that are automatically added to the end of your outgoing e-mail messages.
With this new plug-in, you can take that customization one step further by telling your e-mail recipients what music you're currently listening to in Windows Media Player 10. It's a cool way to both turn your friends on to your favorite music and to add some self expression to your e-mail (and blogs).
