I updated
Winamp earlier today (to v5.54) after finally caving in to its nagging. During the installation process I noticed a bold item in the install set labeled "
Winamp DropBox alpha (use: Ctrl-Shift-D)". My mind flooded with possibilities of what it could be, so I pressed my Ctrl, Shift, and D keys and played around a bit. It's essentially a separate playlist management window that allows dragging to and from, and some fancy sorting mechanism. Needless to say, it's Alpha and it needs a bit of work...
I actually thought I was missing something and was
doing it wrong, so I set out on a mission to search all of the web pages on the internet using
cuil (
the worst search engine ever) for how to properly use the new feature. After
cuil return
ZERO RELEVANT RESULTS, I used Google and found this fantastic post:

I'm going to get shit faced tonight, cook up some hot ideas for new Winamp plug-ins, and post them in the Winamp forums. That apparently works.
On a side note, Winamp seriously needs to get with the times and implement an auto-update feature. FireFox, Thunderbird, and uTorrent all have it down pat.
