#6 Web 2.0 Awards List

Lastfm was the award winner in the music field. Site gave access to bio on composers, their music, pics, albums, videos, listeners and events. I did have to type in a classical composer's name as most everything was very today's music, but the search box did wonders. This could be a useful site for student information, but I feel they would be distracted by the current music online. Also, Mom and Dad would probably not like their elementary child seeing some song titles or group names along with video & music inappropriate for their child. I did like the access to music as stores are disappearing. Site also gave event info for various cities...sorry, Dallas was not listed, but Austin and Houston were. Some music was free, while some had to be paid for and you also needed to sign in, but at no cost.
