The value of Social Networks
Filed in archive Social Web by S.M. Schrama on April 26, 2007
There are so many social networks out there these days that it is getting impossible to use them all without having to quit your job or close your office, unless you are Michael Arrington, of course. Social networks can be divided in two main categories : the general ones and the ones with a specific purpose or topic. The general ones are myspace, hyves and such. The ones about a specific topic are everywhere : from helping out good causes, to religions, finding the better you to music, dating, hobbies and more. Last.fm falls in the latter category.

The value of Social Networks

So what is so special about last.fm ? That all depends. I think it is safe to say that about 90% of us likes to listen to music, which makes last.fm an interesting target to a lot of people. If you are like me, you already know what music you look for an like, but last.fm still gives you that little extra - it enables users to form groups with a radio station. And there is more :
Just listen to your music with your computer's music player or your iPod and Last.fm will "scrobble" your playlists. This means that every song you listen to with Last.fm will become part of your music profile.


Your music profile is the key to the world of Last.fm. Once you've started scrobbling, you can:
  • Create personal music charts automatically

  • Find your musical soulmates

  • Discover and explore new music

  • Generate your own personal radio station

  • See what your friends are listening to



I think last.fm is awesome !
