The last emerging technology I chose to explore was under the title music. The internet site I chose was Pandora, which can be accessed at http://www.pandora.com/. I chose this site because I have heard many of my friends and family using this site to listen to their favorite music, and I have never explored it myself. Pandora is simply an online radio that is set to your liking. You just type in an artist or song and it makes a radio station that plays music with the same similarities of the artist or song that you typed in. You can either go onto the website and type in a song or artist, or you can create an account and it will save your stations for the next time you log in! You can only skip so many songs, so if the station is not fit to what you are aiming for, you can always change it.
This technology is very easy to use and understand. All you need is an email address and password to sign up. Also, if you have a facebook account, Pandora allows you to connect with facebook to share your stations or view your friend’s stations. As well as, Pandora uses your profile picture on your facebook as your profile picture on Pandora. Now I have my own radio stations on my computer if I don’t want to listen to the same songs on the regular radio. In addition, if you have internet on your phone, Pandora can be accessed on your mobile phone as well. Pandora is very useful on and off the computer when wanting to listen to some music.
I made an account of my own when I went to the Pandora website. As well as, exploring others Pandora radio stations on facebook and created my own. I have posted my profile/stations on my blog in the above right if you want to see my favorite stations. I do not have many but I know I eventually will.
Tips:
1. Web sites that fit your interests are worth exploring.
2. Same as my other tips, have fun with it!
3. Others interest can be the same as yours, a way to meet new people!
I had no idea that you could link facebook and pandora together! This is very useful when wanting to find out new songs that your friends like or share songs that you like with them! This website is really useful because it's easy to use and you don't have to listen or skip all those songs you normally would on any other radio station! Great JOb researching this!
