Shazam has announced the launch of a Facebook app that enables Shazam users to put on their Facebook profile songs that they have recently captured vua Shazam’s service.
(For those of you that don’t know, by dialing 2580 in the UK, you can hold the phone to any music source, and after 20 seconds or so you will be texted the song details – sounds implausible, but it really does work)
The app can be reached by going to the Shazam website or the Facebook application directly. You need to register your name/number so that Shazam and Facebook can sync up. After this is done, any “tagged” songs will have their details shown on your profile. User will also be able to share music with friends, and look at the most popular tagged tracks.
Comment: go on, give it a go – you might even like it!

About The Author
Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
