Or Listening to Pandora without Firefox.
No, I did not switch "back" to Safari. Nor am I using some other browser. You can check out PandoraBoy. It's free and plays pandora on your mac without a web browser. I like to close Firefox a bit to get rid of the clutter, but this can have annoying consequences with my pandora stream. No more problem with PandoraBoy.
Even better than that, it allows for hotkeys. I can press ctrl+shift+spacebar in any app and my music pauses or starts up again, ctrl+shift+[right arrow] grabs me the next song, ctrl+shift+[up arrow] gives the song a thumbs up, and ctrl+shift+[down arrow] gives the song a thumbs down. No more navigating to the pandora tab and doing all that with the mouse.
For you more tech savvy people, I stumbled across this blog which tells you how to setup a little display at the bottom of your desktop to show what song you're currently listening to. You can customize how this looks.
