It's Fun!

Someone recently told Jon about an online radio that I am having lots of fun with! Here's what they say about themselves:

Q: What is Pandora?
Pandora is a music discovery service designed to help you enjoy music you already know, and to help you discover new music you'll love.
It's powered by the most comprehensive analysis of music ever undertaken, the
Music Genome Project: a crazy project started back in early 2000 to capture the complex musical DNA of songs using a large team of highly-trained musicians.
Just tell us one of your favorite songs or artists and we'll launch a streaming station to explore that part of the musical universe.


I've started three stations: Ingrid Michaelson, Jack Johnson and Peter Breinholt. What are some of your favorite musicians/groups that I could explore? I love finding new things!!

Now, does anyone know a site like this that I could use for books?

Ooh, that sounds fun. I'll have to check it out. A book one would be perfect! Maybe you should start it :)

OF course we have already checked it out (thanks to your suggestion) and have started two radio stations. Brian Eno(new age) and Sigur Ros (Icelandic melodic). We listened last night as Craig studied and I read (The Prizewinner of Defiance, OH). Thanks for clueing us in on what's cool :)
