New Music Discovery Engine: Haystack

Following in the footsteps of Tagworld and Pandora’s Box, Haystack is the latest online venture geared toward connecting users through music. Haystack users will fall into one of three categories – artists, fans and tastemakers. Tastemakers are currently invite only and will be those deemed as having the “music ear”. Haystack through it’s Tastmaker’s aims to provide people with a place to get music recommendations from “real people” and not algorithms – similar to the days of the dearly departed mom and pop record shops. Haystack is currently in private beta. We will update you once it goes live to all – I know you can’t wait to start stacking your music favorites.

The online sharing phenomena continues. With new companies popping up each day, one has to ask the question – when will we reach overload? In the meantime, while consumers are onboard – folks keep cashing in – have you head the YouTube sales figure – billion what????


Non Sequitur: If you haven't seen The Departed, you need to. Hands down the best action film of the year. Leo, Walberg and Damon - ladies, it's triple dose of hot bodies. Guys, there's plenty of guns, twists and gore to keep you occupied as well.
