Thing # 6

I love music, so the site I chose to blog about is http://www.pandora.com/#/. It's a really cool site, because you can type in a band or musician that you really enjoy, and the website will compose a list of artists that you may like based on what you entered. The songs will then play, and you have a virtual radio station based specifically on your musical tastes. I could see this site being used in music classes. The teacher could encourage their students to discover new artists that they like based on their favorite musicians. A music teacher could also try to get students to learn about the history of music, and what people from the past have played a large role in shaping music throughout the years. Ultimately I think this site is more suited for personal use instead of educational, but it could be utilized in some cases.
