Kinetics Music Comfortably at the Top of iTunes

Back in February, pluURL built a custom music platform for our friends Kinetics Music featuring Twitter and Facebook integration as well as direct downloads and song streaming through Vokoder. After being signed to Warner/ Chappell music as songwriters, one of their songs, “Airplanes,” became the second single off the new B.O.B. album and is currently the number 2 songs on iTunes!

Silverlake to Soho Update

Over the past couple of months, our music blog, Silverlake to Soho, has received momentous traffic gains thanks to our great fans! If you haven’t checked out Sl2S, we encourage you to do so, especially if you’re in the market for some new tunes. We update the site with commentary, a song of the day (#sotd on Twitter), and three playlists a week. The music streams from our Vokoder music web application, which is about to get a major facelift. More news on that soon but for now, sit back and plug in your headphones!

New on pluURL: Social Pulse

We’ve created a nifty feature  here at pluURL to help gauge the popularity of certain content. Similar to the Facebook and Twitter buttons, which show you how many times something has been reposted, our calculated Social Pulse looks at a broader range of factors to determine a post’s popularity.

We look at the number of time a post has been retweeted, shared on Facebook, Dugg, as well as the publish date in determining a score. Sound confusing? It’s really simple. If you really like a post and want to move it’s score up, keep sharing on Facebook, Twitter, and Digg! Check out reallychill.org to see the Social Pulse in action.
