11/12/2008 7:41:58 PM

I like her box.

11/12/2008 7:42:05 PM

I, too, introduced coworkers to pandora.

I, too, received cheesy replies for said introduction.

11/12/2008 7:42:08 PM

11/12/2008 7:43:25 PM

dnl, you've got to be kidding

11/12/2008 7:43:55 PM

i listen to music on my computer or youtube it if i dont have it...

11/12/2008 7:44:30 PM

never heard of it... then again, I like people and doing things

11/12/2008 7:44:48 PM

strollin

11/12/2008 7:44:55 PM

to be honest i hadnt heard of it til i downloaed the application on my ipod touch


that shit is pretty sweet (at least the application, im guessin regular pandora is just a radio station service)

but i can input some song or artist, and itll select a bunch of songs that are similar, and damn they are accurate


i typed in "screwd up click" and got nothin but chopped and screwed music and houston hip hop, it was awesome and artists i aint never heard of before outta h-town

also typed in buju banton and found some awesome reggae


so im lovin this pandora stuff

11/12/2008 7:45:05 PM

hey evan.

get this.

i have music playing 15+ hours/day, grow my collection like it's kudzu, and have never once even brought up the pandora page.

no reason why really, just no reason to.

what a coincidence

i like things and doing people

^yeah, i've almost copied my massive music collection to some, uh, unnamed storage at work... pandora is just nice because it plays songs from bands i've never even heard of sometimes

it's also nice to have on my iphone - 16GB only holds so much and i like 320kbps MP3s or V0s...

11/12/2008 7:45:49 PM

says the guy that will give but not receive...

11/12/2008 7:46:38 PM

11/12/2008 7:48:11 PM

11/12/2008 7:48:43 PM

cause you are annoying as shit


you couldnt just make a thread called "Pandora" with a short explanation of what it is... you had make something where it seems "cool" that you know that it is and have used it a lot... it's like people that bring up something in a conversation hoping and praying that you will ask them for further information about it and when you dont they just keep dropping hints.

i've never had anyone tell me that before.

11/12/2008 7:50:49 PM

I was nice to you. But you quit talking to me

11/12/2008 7:51:32 PM

HEY GUYS I DID THIS

LOOK AT MY LICENSE PLATE

Same way some folks have apparently never heard of "we don't give a shit about the rather mundane aspects of your life" type of responses?

11/12/2008 7:55:48 PM

^ haha

11/12/2008 7:56:22 PM

No sir, please don't get it twisted. You work for a business analytics company that happens to use software technology as a primary means.


You are not a tech company.


Analytics is not technology.

11/12/2008 7:58:16 PM

I thought he was a medical professional

11/12/2008 7:58:53 PM

he wasnt very professional from what i hear

11/12/2008 7:59:25 PM

I had never heard about it until a few days ago when someone used it at work for music in a lunch meeting... I think it was Pandora at least. He had quiet Sinatra music playing for some reason?

11/12/2008 7:59:42 PM

^ mood music for a lunch meeting... sounds like some hippie fucking Cali shit

11/12/2008 8:00:25 PM

in all seriousness, i didnt learn about this until about 3 weeks ago when someone at my work told me about it...she said the thing she liked was that it suggests music based on what you listen to...she said she learned a lot of groups she never knew before

11/12/2008 8:01:21 PM

doesnt that genius thing on itunes do that?

11/12/2008 8:01:59 PM

yea what josh is talkin bout is genius

11/12/2008 8:02:25 PM

itunes is for queers

11/12/2008 8:02:49 PM

They have pandora blocked at work because it "sucks up too much bandwidth."

so SAS allows you to store copyrighted (and probably pirated) music on their server space? That sounds like a huge liability and risk, not to mention it's probably illegal.

11/12/2008 8:19:20 PM

and i wonder if it's all non-pirated

how does this even remotely resemble that? and how could i have made this any shorter? i assumed that everyone had heard of pandora because just about everyone i've met has.

dude i knew at the GE headquarters got fired because he stored music on his computer.

it's not really a big deal

you wouldn't believe how many shared libraries come up on itunes over rendezvous
