We're Playing Your Song: Personalised Track Notifications over XMPP
Just a little XMPP toy: send the message lastfm yourlastfmusername to radio1@hug.hellomatty.com and we'll ping you when one of our music stations is playing a tune by an artist you like to listen to. Fun, huh?
Behind the scenes I'm pulling your last.fm profile via which wrangles it into . This means I'm storing your preferences in a way that should work as well for speech shows as it does for music. So I could use tastebroker's view of your del.icio.us feed to let you know when Radio 4 is broadcasting something you might be interested in. But that's for another time...
(Oh, and if you want us to stop pinging you, just send forget me...)

Now I'm just waiting for a message to come in!

I went ahead and sent a message. I also took the liberty to create an account to your server. I've looked at a way to contact you privately first but found none. Could you contact me? I'd like to discuss your ideas with you if you don't mind.

I've been working on some Python and Qt library recently and I've got some screenshot showing how it allows to manage XMPP PubSub items.
See a couple of screenhots:
If you're interested in trying it let me know.
