I browsed through all of the categories and gave Pandora a shot (not to be confused with shooting Pandora). A co-worker had recommended this site to me several months ago but I'd never gotten around to testing it out.
Pandora provides music. Very handy if you're in a location that doesn't get radio reception, and as long as your pc has speakers. Signing-up was easy. It also offered an opportunity to share my music choices with friends.
I requested Andy Williams, Henry Mancini (not available), Alison Krause, and Mozart. You may only chose an artist or song, but not a music type such as marching band, drum corps, light jazz, or patriotic. You are given the info on each piece such as composer, title, performer. Pandora will continue to play when minimized, so you may do your pc work while humming along.
Excellent way to test out various artists and styles. This would be handy for helping patrons identify music pieces - and in these budget-crunching times, all for free!
My library lists websites that we hope are helpful or of interest to the public and listing seomoz.org site could be something fun they could browse through. So often we're listing wonderful research resources, but we should also add fun things as well.
