i like the playlist function, where you can play all your friends' jams -- it's nice to keep up with people's listening without having to do too much work. i also like how it posts your jam to twitter, although you don't really need a service for that, if you just want to tweet about a song you like.

clearly someone the sculptor knew. a vivid face from the past.
I like it. the "Open In Spotify" feature they just rolled out takes it to the next level. automatically generates a playlist out of your past jams and likes.

The Spotify addition is neat, except I noticed that it tried to match a couple of my past jams that Spotify didn't have to songs that had similar names or artists.

This is so much better than I thought it was from the funny tweets.
The Spotofy app is particularly good - lets you quickly browse through past jams of people you follow, then discover new people who have also jammed songs you like.

Let's Loop is dumb. Nusiki is a mess. God's Jukebox is at least being developed by a person who was an avid TIMJer, so the expectation is that over time it will incorporate everything that made TIMJ so wonderful.
