5For those of you who are always looking for new music, and you’ve grown tired of Last FM or Pandora - A new site that might tickle your eardrums is musicovery.

Its interactive streaming webradio - the more you fave songs the more customisable the station becomes. Select your mood on a point in the grid, select your genre(s) and decade(s) and Musicovery does the rest. You can also deselect or ban songs. I’ve been listening to it for most of the afternoon on the ‘Discovery’ setting which pops up a lot of stuff I’ve not heard before. If you want to maintstream you can also select just to listen to ‘Hits’ or your music ‘universes’.

Nice and slick - no FAQ but the UI is simple enough to figure out in a matter of seconds. The free account gives you lo-fi versions of the tracks, but its still decent enough quality coming through my external speakers.

Its Christmas Eve!! Almost time for the big day!
I’m off to wrap my pressies, meanwhile here’s a couple of weird christmas facts:

# Kris Kringel, a man in his 40s, lives in North Pole, Alaska, and delivers pizzas for a living. He drives a 1984 Ford Tempo.
# A traditional Christmas dinner in early England was the head of a pig prepared with mustard.
# 56 percent of Americans sing holiday carols to their pets.
# Christmas pudding should be stirred from east to west.
