Pandora Music Genome Project

edited August 2008 in Comics
Hey folks,

Who has heard of Pandora: the resultant project of the Music Genome Project? I recommend it! Go to http://www.pandora.com/ and type in an artist or song that you like. That is your "seed". The members of the Music Genome Project have pains-takingly combed through over infinity-billion songs that exist, and they have catalogued the different qualities of each: tone, lyrics, length, tempo, instrumentation, even what it was influenced by! Using your seeds, Pandora will then play music that shares qualities with the music you said you like!

The concept is not new: Google uses it to provide ads to you. The only difference here is that it's music. Give it a try, folks!
