Streaming music is blocked in the work place and on the public PCs download limits etc make it difficult to get around this one . It is a natural progression joining radio and Internet and making them interactive . Users can select own music and listen while working with the inevitable invitation to buy. Groups grow up around the liking for a similar style of music similar to those that grow up around the books in " library thing" this to me is a more comfortable use of the idea of Internet community not just chattering aimlessly. Tried creating a quilt of covers but it leads away from the page promoting the album and with intrusive advertising.
How could this be incorporated into the library? Perhaps at the beginning of a special Internet training program with a theme, Chinese music? not for a while yet I suspect. For my radio widget I chose Fela Kuti a famous african protest singer his son now sings in a similar style but I like the old master and his highlife jazz
Are librarians going the way of endangered animals, up into the ether? Will we be a distant memory? Ancient ones,guardians and guides to ideas big and small who changed their twin sets and pearls for skate boards and mp3s then morphed themselves out of existence? or are we becoming....
