PANDORA

No no no... This has nothing to do with opening a box and unleashing unimaginable horrors upon the world....




This post is about Pandora Radio: The Music Genome Project....



By a show of hands, who has heard of Pandora before? Oh wait... you can't show your hands, so why don't you just comment and let people know how awesome it is... For those of you who haven't heard about this fantastic website.... Listen up!

Pandora is an amazing site for students who want to jam out to their favorite tunes, but they lack the necessary MP3 player, disc-man, or cassette tape player (wow... I'm really dating myself there...lol) to do so. All a person needs to have to access the abundance stored on Pandora Radio are three things: a live Internet connection, a pair of working headphones, and a login name. Pandora is a completely free service for all who want to join...

The beauty of Pandora Radio is tha it's like a radio station except that you have a much higher degree of personal control. Have you ever been listening the radio and a particular song comes on and you're like... "Oh my gosh!! I hate this song! I wish they'd never play it AGAIN!" With Pandora Radio, that wish could be granted! All you have to do is check a box saying that you don't like the song and it'll never be played again... I could go into much greater detail on some of the other cool things Pandora Radio allows you to do, but i think its alot more fun if you get to experiment with it yourself.... So next time you're in the libary and that obnoxious group next top you just won't stop talking, instead of flipping out and busting some skulls, why don't you give Pandora Radio a try... Pandora.com Until next time. Cya!

  1. I love Pandora!!! Currently on my "Stations":

    The Roots
    Slightly Stoopid
    Billy Joel
    Jimmy Buffet
    Tom Petty
    The Who
    Rooney

    And I love it because you get access to a ton of great songs that you preset it match the music tunes of it.
    Also, I heard that if you have an iPhone I guess you can download that "App" onto your phone (free music!) and so that would be great! And also somewhat of a combat to iTunes....

  2. Pandora is totally awesome! I've heard about it before, but until now, I've never tried it. After reading this post, I figured I'd give it a shot and I love it! This is probably one of the best ways for me to discover music! Thanks for sharing!!
