It was only a matter of time until facebook seriously integrated music into it’s social network system. It wasn’t enough just to have people constantly sharing youtube links in order to share music easily with friends. Today Facebook announced a partnership with companies such as Spotify, Turntable.fm, Vevo, and MOG, that will bring music discovery and social networking to your facebook experience. You can listen to the same songs as your friends, give them recommendations, and see what is trending with your network.
I got to say, if this turns out as well as it sounds, this could be a winning moment for all us music geeks on facebook who love sharing music. I’m all for it. It’s funny that this announcement comes a day after they revealed the new facebook which (as usual) saw many complaints from it’s users
