intro

Ou Website of the Month is Pandora, a website that allows you to customise your own radio station

Pandora www.pandora.com is a website that allows you to customise your own radio station. After logging in, users type in the name of a song or a band. Pandora then uses a complex mathematical algorithm to find tracks matching that band or song's musical characteristics. For example, we typed in the Clash and as well as a live version of 'Train in Vain' also ended up with songs by the Jam, the Ramones, Television and the Sex Pistols. Biographical notes about each song are provided and one can let Pandora know whether one likes or doesn't like each song.
