Sorry, I wasn't able to explore the site I chose. As much as I'd love to tell you all about the cool things happening at Pandora, I can't. I've filled out the form, let's keep our fingers crossed. It is very simple, really. If I am unable to do the work at work on a work computer, I'll need overtime.
UPDATE 2008/01/18: The system works! After requesting access, it was granted. Not sure if it was just for review purposes (which will later be revoked) but, still! Pandora is pretty cool. First, it asks you for a song or artist you like (I picked The Police as a test bed) and then it starts playing similar songs. Right away, I was listening to U2, The Cure, and (of course) The Police! A simple and intuitive rating system (thumbs up, thumbs down) let me fine tune my station. Live versions and B-side tracks were included, offering a nice change from commercial radio's "Top 10" playlists. The trial was only three or four songs long, but when the option appeared to create an account, there was no debate.

Living on the edge!
And I will keep my fingers crossed for you for the overtime. Ha,ha.
Don't forget you can always use a public Internet workstation. :)
