Spotify's 'Follow' button lets you recruit listeners from any webpage

Looking to tempt others to check out your Spotify tracks? Before, any interaction with other users or artists had to be done within the various desktop and mobile apps, but there's now another option: you can embed a 'Follow' button into any website. The idea is to make it easier to promote your music (or musical taste) while expanding your follower base. Obviously, it'll also give Spotify itself a greater online presence and allow it to ensnare new subscribers who've yet to download the app. You can grab the code snippets at the source, but you may first want to weed out that playlist from your 'crunkcore' phase.
