Client News: Twones Launches in private Beta
September 17th, 2009 by KPBrown
Twones, one of the coolest music services on the web, launched their private Beta today, capping off a year of hard work by their founders Tim Heineke and Diederik Martens and the Twones Amersdam-based team.
What started as a simple concept, allowing music lovers to track the music they play around the web or on their computers and tie it all back to one spot, has grown into a site that we think will become the go-to spot for music lovers to connect to all of the hottest music on the web.
The idea of media “ownership” is a thing of the past. Music is all over the web, spinning and being shared constantly by people just like you. Whether you spin Last.fm, imeem, HypeM, MySpace, or any of the many music services out there to discover new artists and tracks, you are consuming more music in a day than you can possibly remember. Twones solves that problem with a simple browser add-on that tracks your music and stores it in your Twones library.
Once you hit “play”, Twones gives you all of the information you could hope to find about an artist: Wikipedia bios, similar artists, Flickr pictures, YouTube videos, Twitter buzz – even upcoming concert dates!
Below are some of the blog posts and coverage from the launch. We’ll update the list throughout the day.
