This is the reason I wanted to be able to communicate from a web page to Amarok:
It uses a database query that finds the newest albums in your Amarok database (has to be MySQL: edit the variables in db.php as appropriate), a modified version of ImageFlow (generates image reflections with PHP, produces interface with Javascript), and a PHP script that communicates with Amarok via the XUL Remote plugin (which you need to have installed and running).
Clicking on the front image should start that album playing in Amarok.
