uPlayme is a novel service that integrates with your media player (iTunes, Windows Media Player, etc.) and records your habits. As you play a song or video, you are connected to other users playing the same thing.
After signing up, uPlayme requires a fairly small software download (3MB). The software asks you if it should monitor Windows Media Player, iTunes, or your preferred media player and automatically starts tracking your media habits. As you watch or listen, it you matches you are making with other users. The other users’ profiles include their name, age, social network pages (MySpace, Facebook etc.) and the recent media they have played. If users listen to music on their portable device, the software syncs with your device and gathers the media history.
Facebook users can also add the uPlayMe application and immediately access a top 10 list of songs on Facebook, their songs, their friends’ songs and uPlayMe news. Additionally, they can invite others to join the service to begin sharing as well.
