The Spotback Music Project
In the past few months we've been approached several times by people asking
us to launch a Spotback personalized music aggregator. We've decided to put
our efforts in to it, and our team of experts managed to map a huge amount
of music resources.
Now - we're proud to announce the official release of the Spotback Music
Project where users control the music.
What can you expect from the Music Project?
- Best music resources available mapped out to meet your
exact needs - New sub-categories: news, pop, MP3, alternative, gear,
industry, reviews, features, retro - Built in MP3 player - from now on if the feed has an MP3
link, you can listen to it on Spotback's front page - Daily updated blogs and music e-zines
Keep in mind that Spotback depends on each user's personal ratings. Once a
user rates a story, his personal profile is updated and the Spotback
algorithm starts searching for relevant stories that would match the user's
specific taste.
Drop by the Spotback Music Project and see for yourself.

Personalized Content
Our goal has always been personalizing the web and helping each user get his own personalized web experience.
Our long time mission has been recently supported by the 2006 ChoiceStream Personalization Survey.
The survey provides insight into consumers’ interest in personalization.
Some of the 2006 survey findings are:
79% of consumers are interested in receiving personalized content.
75% of consumers believe that personalization would improve their social networking experience by introducing them to other members with similar interests and preferences.
We believe this is the first indication the web’s new frontier in personalizing users' content in order to maximize their personal web experience.

Interesting Approach to Personal News
Chris Kasten wrote about "Spotback — An Interesting Approach to Personal News"
In his Solo-Technology blog.
“Have you played with Spotback yet? After seeing a handful of references to it over the last few days I started checking it out over the weekend to see what all the shouting is about.
Short version: It is really quite cool! “
Thank you Chris, we believe it takes one to know one.
