Pandora Goes Global

Yes, it's true. Pandora's box is not only open to Americans now, it's open to the entire world. Hooray!

For those of you who don't know, Pandora is an online radio station of music that is organized using the Music Genome Project. The Music Genome Project analyzes and organizes music by a number of traits (i.e. melody, harmony, rhythm, instrumentation, etc.). Pandora Radio allows listeners to identify a song or an artist they like and, in turn, Pandora searches its database and pulls up songs it that are similar in nature.

Before, Pandora was available to the world at Pandora.com. But last year, due to licensing constraints, Pandora had to cut itself off from the world outside the States. But now, with GlobalPandora.com, those of us who live in the rest of the world can now enjoy Pandora's box and all her splendours once again. :)
