13 September 2005I can name that tune in 10 digits"What the heck is the name of this song?" Radio formats often don't allow for such trivial details. To the rescue: 411-SONG. Call them up, pick up your wireless phone, dial 866-411-SONG, wait for the beep, and then hold the phone up to the sound source for at least 15 seconds. They will send you back a text message with the song's title and artist, and if it's available as a ringtone, they'll tell you that too. For 99 cents (buying the ringtone, if any, will cost the usual price), this strikes me as a heck of a deal. (Heard at Lifehacker.) Posted at 6:18 AM to Entirely Too CoolI wonder what happens if the song is "867-5309" Posted by: McGehee at 11:23 AM on 13 September 2005You know anyone who doesn't recognize that? Okay, maybe Pope Benedict XVI, but besides him.... Man, if they can identify Eric Whitacre's October or Lux Aurumque for Winds, I'd pay $2. If they ever came on the radio. It's pretty sad when you forget what your own CDs contain. Posted by: Matt at 1:07 PM on 13 September 2005 |
