The Social Music Cyber-Scene
For almost as long as I have had this Blog there has been a link to my last.fm page. That would be it on the right, the one that says "See What Michael Listens To". last is an audio scrobbler page that saves the names of songs I listen to and creates personal charts. It then introduces me to people that have similar musical tastes. Lately I have been being way more social than ever before on last.fm, and it has been a huge kick. I have met a handful of folks from the UK and a couple from here in the States. 1 or 2 from the Netherlands, and here and there. There are a ton of social networking sites on the web these days, but the thing I like most about last is that it does most of the work for me. All I really have to do is listen to music and all of a sudden a bunch of folks are knocking on my cyber-door. So if your looking to meet some folks that share your taste in music, you should drop-by and start scrobbling.
