Gear Diary Twusic Provides the Tools to Track Music Over Twitter! photo

Have you ever seen someone post a ‘now listening’ Tweet with the #nowplaying hashtag? It is a cool thing, but if your Twitter feed is anything like mine then those posts come and go before you get the chance to make note if you are on the go. This is where Twusic enters

Here are some details:

After being the first social network offering to all the tools to create their own radio for free, Twusic has now become a complete music application enabling users to create playlists, to follow the music of their friends and to discover all the new music played on Twitter, using the #nowplaying hashtag and it’s 2.5 millions tweets per day.

Introduced a few months ago to users in beta version, Twusic is now open to all.
It offers for this occasion a new interface with new features, many of them requested by users.

In 7 months Twusic has gathered a music library of over 700,000 titles for nearly 500 days of continuous listening!

But Twusic is also a team of enthusiasts who is listening to a community of music lovers and share everything with them on the blog, Twitter account and Facebook page.

MIDEMLAB ’12 finalist in music discovery and recommandation selection this year in Cannes, Twusic was qualified by “Le Figaro” as one of the most innovative concept introduced.

They have produced a overview video to show off the concept:

From just a short bit of use I can already see this being a cool way to share and check out new music from the many great artists and music lovers I follow on Twitter!

Head to Twusic for more details!

I have loved technology for as long as I can remember - and have been a computer gamer since the PDP-10! Mobile Technology has played a major role in my life - I have used an electronic companion since the HP95LX more than 20 years ago, and have been a 'Laptop First' person since my Compaq LTE Lite 3/20 and Powerbook 170 back in 1991! As an avid gamer and gadget-junkie I was constantly asked for my opinions on new technology, which led to writing small blurbs ... and eventually becoming a reviewer many years ago. My family is my biggest priority in life, and they alternate between loving and tolerating my gaming and gadget hobbies ... but ultimately benefits from the addition of technology to our lives!
