Pandora Vs. LivePlasma

liveplasma.png

We have seen lots of posts today about Oakland, CA-based music discovery engine Pandora, thanks to its funding event today.

You really should check out the site - the UI is innovative. In contrast to Pandora which has money, offices and a team, LivePlasma is staffed by one elusive guy - Frederic Vavrille.
