Pandora - Free Online Music

When Money Attacks... Online Music.

The Music Genome Project has created Pandora. It is an online radio. But this radio is unique because you are able to customize your radio station by adding music you do like, and subtract music you don't like. Each time you adjust that radio station, it adapts and and only plays songs similar to the ones that you do like.

Eventually, your music will only be songs that you like. I'm guilty for having a Britney Spears and Alanis Morisette radio stations.

Google - Internet Advertising based on watching TV

Google plans on giving you internet advertising (AdSense) and content based on whatever you're watching on TV!

Cythia Brumfield said, "It's an interesting concept because we all sit with out laptops while watching TV."

The article says:

"There is, of course, an easier way to get audience data than listening with a laptop: Google could partner with telcos and cable companies in their respective efforts to deliver next-generation interactive television using Internet-style networking. The only problem is that IPTV, as the marriage of television and broadband networking is called, belongs to Microsoft. Microsoft is the major vendor of software for IPTV network operators and it has plans to be the Google of IPTV."

Here's the article from InformationWeek:

And the image is just a joke. =^)

Zoom Craziness

I don't know what it took to make this thing work properly, but I do know that if this is an image, they had to make it extremely huge and then loop it in order for this to work. This is a massive piece of Art.

So I guess the motivation is to have the Google ads on the top, but, still, the amount of time and money that went into this is ridiculous! It takes awhile to load, but you'll be glad you waited!!!

Take a special notice to the guy with the flashlight in the tunnel. I bet he's thinking, "What the...? Something's different about my basement!"

This comes from Analogik, an Australian music and multimedia content hoarder. They say, "Analogik is a group of industry professionals committed to providing quality content and online resources in fields of electronic music, multimedia, visual arts, science, technology, and culture."

Um, in other words they make things.
