iLike music, and so will you

iLike: Official Blog | Official Site | Wikipedia

There's a cool new place to hangout in town and it's called iLike. I like iLike. There's the main website and a downloadable sidebar application for iTunes. From the main website, you do the usual create a profile. You can look around at other members and make friends. You can also immediately start clicking away "liking" musica artists. iLike turns around and suggests other artists for you to like based on which artist you justed liked. It's fairly accurate. For iTunes, download the iLike Sidebar and it plugs it right into iTunes as a sidbar. You'll get news bulletins, videos, and additional music suggestions. You can also see what your iLike.com friends are listening to.

The iLike Sidbar appliction can also be tied into your profile for other social websites such as Facebook and MySpace. This is a really cool feature. Why is that? Let me give you an example. If you have a Facebook profile, you can add the Facebook iLike applicaiton. Search for music artists. Visit their iLike Facebook pages and click on their iLike button. Your Facebook profile, the iLike Sidebar, and your iLike.com profile are all synchronized. On your Facebook profile, your friends can see which music artists you like. For your MySpace page, there's the iLike widget that's sort of similar to the Last.fm widget. It's also tied into the iLike Sidebar and your iLike.com profile. It's another way for people to discover what kind of music you enjoy listening to.

Here's my iLike profile.

Oh... One more thing.

iLike also works with your iPhone.
