Pandora Radio keeping me company
Lately I’m been enjoying online tunes through Pandora Radio. An old school techie, Jay Coley, President of Editware who began his computing days with punch cards for memory (?!!?!? dinosaur days!) turned me on to this site.
You type in some group you like and it finds music that’s similar to it. Basically, you can customize your own radio station because you can tell it you like or dislike certain songs. The site is easy to use and has been playing for hours for me.
The station I listen to the most is based on Thievery Corporation, a groovy mix of beats and rhythm.

I was a fan of Pandora for a while, but, would often get tired of the music as it seemed repetitive and just wouldn’t play the songs I wanted to hear.
I recently discovered Slacker and love it. Similar idea but more stations based on genre, ability to make stations based on one artist or as many artists as I want and other controls. Also, they have a cool new portable device to take my stations wherever I want.
Compare it to Pandora and see what you think.

Hi Fred,
Thanks for sharing the resource. You sound like an official fan. I listened for a bit and heard some tunes I hadn’t heard before — some I liked, some not so much. I was, however, totally turned off when I heard a Lending Tree advertisement. Totally broke my flow.
Oh schwell.
