A saw mention over on Gizmodo about a new service from AT&T Wireless, where you can place your cellphone up to a radio speaker and have it SMS a message back to you with the song’s artist and title. I happen to have an AT&T phone that we use at work as a spare, so I tried this service out. I connected to a RealAudio station and played whatever song they had through the cellphone, and it actually F’ing worked!
UPDATE: I didn’t know about this before, but here is a very cool site for pretty much doing the same thing.
I wonder how well this would work in a concert or what happens if you play a tribute band’s tunes through it. Hell, what if you actually sang into the phone? I’m frightened at the possibilities.
