It's early so I'm not explaining this well, just think music and algorithms.

It's a chance for me to share our story with you and hear what you have to say. I'll tell you about the Music Genome Project's beginnings, living through the dot-com collapse and what this last whirlwind year has been like. Most of all I'd like to get your ideas and thoughts about the service and where you think music is headed. I'll also have some nice Pandora gear for everyone!
