Apple Brings Social Apps to Your Next Kegger
// March 12th, 2009 // Social Media
Whenever I throw or attend a party, I tend to get lumped into the DJ corner to take care of tunage for the night because of one of two reasons:
- I used to do exactly that back in the day before I started working for shops and agencies.
- Between my Last.fm account, Songza and existing collection of music it’s probably just easier for me to keep things going.
Well it appears that iTunes has now created the ability for anybody with an iPhone to make requests for songs as well as vote on them and might I say… “ugh.”
If I listened to half the requests that were made by everyone at parties both professionally and privately I can guarantee you there would be 5 songs on repeat all night… But I digress.
Bitterness aside, it’s a great idea and gives iPhone users yet another reason to whip their favourite toys out every 3 minutes at a party to boast about why their phone is better than yours… Until you type them a long email on your proper qwerty keyboard.
