Want to hear music recommendations from people located all over the globe? You can do it easily thanks to Recom.me, a Twitter bot that connects the famed Twitter interface with the Echo Nest’s Recommend API to provide an expansive list of artist recommendations. The Recom.me website, then, is a sort of outboard “memory” for the bot, and it makes possible this virtual sharing of information.

The requirements for using this service are listed at the Recom.me website. In general terms, you need to access your Twitter account and send a message to the user “@recomme”. This results in a reply including a series of recommendations and a link to the Recom.me site for additional information.

The creator of the site hopes that this will become a sort of loose social network that will unite music lovers the world over, and he explains that he created this site in a bid to combine two of his best-loved web technologies.

In their own words
“This is a simple Twitter bot with memory. It connects Twitter's interface with The Echo Nest's Recommend API to yield quick, compelling, and easy-to-use artist recommendations.”
Why it might be a killer
Music lovers can come across artists they would not hear about otherwise.
