Last.fm

Last.fm is a very cool site that makes a graphical profile of your taste in music.

Last.fm is the flagship product from the team that designed the Audioscrobbler system, a music engine based on a massive collection of Music Profiles. Each music profile belongs to one person, and describes their taste in music. Last.fm uses these music profiles to make personalized recommendations, match you up with people who like similar music, and generate custom radio stations for each person.

The plug-in works behind the scenes so that you not aware that you are building a profile, but yet, every time you play a song, it gets logged on your personal page, and eventually a profile gets built. Very cool!

Also, it’s a good way to discover new music. Clicking on a song gives the overall statistics for it and the top fans. If you go to their page, it’s possible to see their profile and check out what bands they listen to.
