Soundtrkr & Songasaurus: Music + Social + Location
Two of the internets hottest trends – social and location – are combined with music in two apps that offer a glimpse of where ubiquitous smartphones may take music discovery and sharing. Soundtrckr bills itself as aa free music service that blends internet radio, social networking and location-awareness. Users can:
- listen to 10 million songs
- create & share personal radio stations.
- play music with friends in real time.
- find music playing nearby
- connect with friends via chat
Soundtrkr just shipped version 2.7 off to iTunes and it should go live in 1-2 days. The upgrade adds more social features, lyrics to 5 million songs and artist bios. The app also has Windows Phone 7 and Ovi Noki versions.
Newer entry, Songasaurus works by syncing meta-information from your Apple device to a central server, then allowing users to connect with friends (finding them by name or location), and showing which songs, albums and artists are most common in your network.

Don’t believe anything. Regard things on a scale of probabilities. The things that seem most absurd, put under ‘Low Probability’, and the things that seem most plausible, you put under ‘High Probability’. Never believe anything. Once you believe anything, you stop thinking about it. The more things you believe, the less mental activity. If you believe something, and have an opinion on every subject, then your brain activity stops entirely, which is clinically considered a sign of death, nowadays in medical practice. So put things on a scale or probability, and never believe or disbelieve anything entirely.
