Hurry Hurry Don’t be late…oh wait…did you get my ping?
For those of us that are always last to catch on, I wanted you to be first. Where you used to tweet, Apple now wants you to ping. And just incase you do not know what this new service is, I wanted to lay it out for you in laymen terms. So I look for the most basic explanation of it just for you!
So, what is PING?
Ping is the new iTunes based social network for music discovery. Users can follow and be followed by artists, friends, and other fans alike. Anyone can follow anyone’s tastes and music stream much like Twitter. This should prove to be an exciting evolution of the iTunes music experience and enable users to more closely get in tune with the interests and artists that those around them like too.
Of course, users can set it so they can approve or disapprove of potential followers. For some this feature set may become a blessing and others a curse. After all, music is a highly personal and revealing endeavor about one’s personality and eccentricities. Thus, there might be some actively in a users music library that they would prefer that their friends didn’t know about.
I think that’s the most basic definition for it that I found. =0/
Hope it helps keep you in the loop!
