Pandora
>> 23 January 2009
I am a terrible internet user. I didn't know about Pandora radio until this month.
For those of you who don't know (my fellow internet know-nothings) , Pandora.com is internet radio where you create your own station. It's basically awesome!
Here's how it might work. Say your favorite musician is Celine Dion (who is finished with her Vegas gig and is coming to the RBC Center in Raleigh soon) and you wanted to listen to Celine Dion and "artists" with similar sounds. You would just go to the website, type in CELINE DION, and the music starts!
At first, it'll pick some duds, but you can vote thumbs up or thumbs down for each song, so that the station gradually learns what music you like (scary thought: computers can learn!). You can also create an account and customize a station so that it is exactly to your liking.
Anyway, if you are not familiar with Pandora.com, stop being an internet amateur and go listen!

I can't believe you are just now using Pandora. It is pretty much the best thing ever- and somewhat addictive.
This is so cool! Thanks for the tip. I'm always a little late on adopting new tech stuff. This is so easy!
