Skreemr adds small new features
Posted on October 10th 2007 in Social Networking, Internet
Remember Skreemr, the MP3 search engine? I wrote about SkreemR here a while ago. Well, there are small changes in the way the site shows results.
First of all there is the “AudioRank”, showing a number between 0 and 100, which represents the overall quality and reliability of the MP3 file in question. The higher the number, the better the chance the file is actually available for download and with good sound quality. The analogy with PageRank is probably not unintentional, so are we looking at something serious here, or just an interesting catchy phrase? Users can also rate every result shown with 0 to 5 stars. Every result shows its current star rating, which naturally right now usually shows “unrated” since this is still new I guess. Since Skreemr has had a Facebook app since the beginning there is also a small button for every result which allows a user to share that result/file/song on Facebook.
Anyway, small but interesting changes which show the people behind SkreemR are going to take this project further.
