AudioVroom by Social Genius on Facebook's Mobile Apps and Mobile Site

PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- A product of the San Francisco Music Hack Day in 2009, AudioVroom by Social Genius is launching a series of revolutionary web (HTML-5) and iOS applications this month to showcase the power of the Facebook mobile applications and mobile site.

As the first truly smart personalized radio, AudioVroom learns your favorite songs, artists and even your friends' preferences and delivers a rich music experience regardless of which mobile or web device you are using.  

The days of sitting in front of a computer piecing together playlists is gone; as is the need to look for friends or taste-makers to hear new suggestions. The most avid music listeners will find AudioVroom's music discovery tools a revelation. That said, AudioVroom is designed for users of all ages and backgrounds not just the music and tech savvy fans, with every experience as hands on or off as they would like it to be.  

Social Genius co-founder and CTO Marcos Lara said, "Music tools need to work for users, not the other way around. Music needs to be more easily accessible to the mainstream music fan regardless of which device they use or how much they know about artists or songs. The integration with Facebook's mobile apps gives AudioVroom users the opportunity to sit back and enjoy music in a way that is not yet available on any other platform."

Co-founder and Chief Scientist Adam Lindsay added, "The Facebook integration has allowed the Social Genius team to make AudioVroom's music fan profiles much richer. Besides tapping into your preferences via iTunes, AudioVroom allows you to automatically use not only your own, but your friends' music preferences to personalize radio stations. In addition, you will have the same experience not only on your desktop, but on your mobile devices. We feel incredibly fortunate to be able to introduce AudioVroom to the world today."

Stay tuned in the upcoming months for updates to the AudioVroom service.
