Pandora vs Finetune

I've listened to Finetune for the past 2 months enjoying their Finetune Desktop. Prior to this I've listened to Pandora using PandoraBoy.

Over the past couple weeks I've become a bit unsatisfied with Finetune's selection. Today I switched back to Pandora. I've realized that Pandora is better able to match the music it plays to my taste. I've wondered if they do a better job recognizing similar music or if they just have me pegged. Either way, I'm pretty pleased with the change.

Both services are wonderful, and both are different. I plan on using them together, but imagine I'll primarily have Pandora running. If only they had the same design team that Finetune has...

 

Happy feet? No, happy posterior!

I've worked for the same company for 7 years. I write software meaning that I'm sitting down for the majority of my work experience. During this time I've had one chair. It was a nice chair, but nothing exceptional. Today I got a new chair, it is exceptional. It is amazing how much of a change a new ergonomic chair makes. I'm pretty pleased.

Well, it has been quite sometime since I last posted. I'm actually currently waiting for Eclipse to perform its updates. It is running particularly slow today.

Having a long layoff from posting is usually the result of one of two things:


  1. Nothing exciting has happened, so no need to post

  2. Quite a few exciting things have happened, no time to post

Fortunately for me, things have been quite exciting. I've had the opportunity to dabble in a few new technologies available to the Software Development world and have thoroughly enjoyed it.

Eclipse just finished, I'll write more about those technologies as soon as I get time and feel that I've got an educated opinion about them.
