Time sure flies when you're busy (& when the sun is out and the weather is 80 degrees by the beach)! It makes working inside on a computer really difficult.However, one of the highlights of sitting in front of my computer was I received an invite for one of the hot new summer apps: Spotify. I decided to try it out since I love anything music related. It's pretty unique and interesting, but not sure how I feel about it yet as I'm still partial to Grooveshark and Pandora. The Pandora playlists "Summer Hits of 1990s" and "Summer Hits of 2000s" have pretty much kept me going this summer. If you want an invite to Spotify you can get one HERE.Some of fun stories from this week....
