Witchhammer 1.3, available now!

After I released Witchhammer 1.0, my bandwidth usage went up 3,000%. My logs are telling me that over 500 people have already downloaded the extension!

In any case, I decided that I could make an enhancement or two. Namely:

  • Full support for both band and album/release searching
  • Better handling of AJAX requests (as metal-archives is often down or slow)

It still works in the same way as before, although there is now a submenu available that allows you to choose to search for either bands or albums. The results are aggregated and displayed efficiently (instead of simply redirecting you to a webpage).

You can download the extension at Firefox Addons and Softpedia (thanks to whoever submitted it there!).

Note, you will need Firefox 3.0 or above -- so make sure you upgrade if you need to.

Please let me know if you find any bugs or areas for improvement. Thanks!
