Pandora

I have to say, my co-worker is very handy. He is always coming to me with new, interesting and visually appealing sites. Although not to visually appealing, one of my favorites that he has introduced me to is Pandora. It's a mix between iTunes and general internet radio with a little twist. It's a great escape from your iTunes library when listening to the same songs for the last year starts to get old and gives you more control over song choice than internet radio. You get to create your own stations for free. All you do is pretty much start off with one of your favorite groups and Pandora automatically configures a group of songs that are within that genre. Even better, if you don't like the song that starts to play, you can give it a thumbs down click and it immediately stops and moves forward to another song. Beautiful. So for all of you windows users (bottom spanks) who have neglected to go and download iTunes, this is your best alternative. You sign up, for free, and every time you come back it automatically signs you back in and starts your saved station. You can create more than one station as well. Right now, I'm jammin to some Oasis, Travis, Coldplay and a few other greats. Give it a whirl. I don't think you will be disappointed.
