Mavelous Musical Genomes!

I had lunch with Mom and Dad today and Dad showed me this great new music service called Pandora. Basically, it allows you to type in your favorite artist or song and then accesses a "music genome" database to guess what kind of music you might like. It creates a "station" and starts streaming music it thinks you'll like.

While this may not offer as extensive of a music selection as services like Rhapsody, it has two tremendous benefits these services don't offer:

  1. It plays through a normal web browser (it doesn't require any special software).
  2. It's FREE!!!

Give it a try! I think you'll be suitably impressed...
