Pandora’s Music Box
25 September 2007 dans freshness guaranteed!, fresh music, fresh sites
Well now that Web 2.0 is kicking-it-liiive it’s definitely not just about what you know, but what everyone you have ever known, and not known, has ever known, and does Kevin Bacon know all that shit? So there are now tons of websites that are gathering tons of data and trying to help you find something new. Well I’m putting my seal-of-approval on Pandora.com. It is a free “radio” website that creates a station based on information you provide, basically the name of a band you dig. As you vote on the songs the station plays, the website alters the playlist.
To make a long story short, you type in a band you love, this tool will help you find some new music. This is similar software that can be found on other web-radio sites, but Pandora takes it a step further by analyzing each song as it’s played and applying that logic to try and understand what you dig. I dig, I dig.
