Thing #17 Award Winning Apps

I found a music site that seems a lot like iTunes but works a bit differently. It's called Last FM and you're able to search for music, tag it, and listen to it. The site will also send music to you that you might find pleasing according to your most recent music choices that you've listened to. Navigating the site still seems a bit of a problem for me, I haven't found out how every aspect of it works. The tagging shows up as it does in del.icio.us. (I think) I tagged a few songs under "daughtry" and it showed a ton of music that I didn't tag but I'm thinking maybe it pulled more in????

One of the classes this would be useful and fun to use in would be the history of rock and roll. If the instuctor wants to pull up a song he can do just about any that he wants. You can also get music videos.
