Well, I made a playlist. That was quick and easy. Have yet to hear any music, though… My guess is that they’re a little overwhelmed (probably by bloggers who want to be the first with a comprehensive review of the service), but that is making it very underwhelming at the moment.
Last time, the advertisers were way off (well, depending on your interpretation of their target audience (and given that there’s this, I suppose there is a lot of room for interpretation).
Here’s a recent Facebook targeted ad, which at least gets it half right:
As a side note, telling me what “you know” about me makes me a lot less likely to click on your ad. It’s creepy on a whole new level. Even something along the lines of “Hey, are you married and living in Denver? Then click on this!” is light years better than “We know about you.”
How long until all the ‘pundits’ (and by pundits I mean, Don Reisinger at TechCrunch, who recently brought me this thought-provoking post that I really liked about Hulu) realize that each tab is running as its own process? It sure seems like it’s running on only 45 MB of memory… until you look a little further down in the Task Manager. Oops, looks like the same set of tabs running in Chrome is actually using twice as much memory! D’oh! I believe that’s what Charles Nutter was getting at in point #2 and #6.
On the plus side, yeah, the UI is good, and the loading seems at least at fast as Firefox 3 and Safari 3 (I haven’t tried Safari 4 yet, which is evidently supposed to be super fast; FF3 is fast enough for me at this point).
