What iLike About You

Posted at 12:00 PM on October 27, 2006 by Hans Eisenbeis (1 Comments)

A company unaffiliated with Apple today launched a service called "iLike.com". The idea seems to be to create the world's 1-billionth social network dedicated to sharing good music.

True, it's a little early to make any conclusions, but judging from the current top-5 songs, "iLike.com" could credibly change its name to "iDon'tHaveAnythingInCommonWithYou.com" or "iAlreadyKnowAboutTheBeatlesAndTheRedHotChiliPeppers,ThankYouVeryMuch.com"

Also this: No one seems to be capitalizing on the longstanding compulsion NOT to share your musical tastes, because the more people who like it, the less cool it is. Right?

Awesome. Almost exactly what last.fm has been doing for years.
