Everyone wants to discover new music. That's why sites like Pandora work so well and why Google's new music search is so helpful. We Are Hunted is a new music discovery service that integrates social networking sites like Twitter and Myspace to find the most buzzed about music on the internet. What I really like about WAH is that it keeps users in the loop about new music so much faster and easier than was previously possible. I don't have the time to see what music everyone is talking about on Twitter or what music videos are the most popular on YouTube right now, but with We Are Hunted the work is all done for me.I'm excited about using We Are Hunted because I think it is an incredibly creative and practical use of gathering information off the internet. As I express in yesterday's post, I'm a little weary of sites and services that monitor the internet and sift through massive amounts of personal information, but I actually think that WAH is putting this technology to good use. So seriously, go check it out.
So, I checked out WAH and I think it's quite effective. I must admit, I'm not much of a music junkie, as I tend to listen to what's on the radio, what's on my friends Ipod or Itunes, or simply go without music if it's not readily available to me. I don't own an Ipod, but I do have Facebook and Twitter accounts, so I could definitely see this new music outlet grabbing my attention at some point daily while I'm compulsively checking these accounts. Kudos WAH!
