  App looks very cool, how did you learn how to code?

    Thank you very much. I put a lot of time into it. I basically just started reading tutorials I found online. I would decide what I want the app to do and look for tutorials or examples from github that do what I was looking for and either walk through the tutorial, or try and reverse engineer the examples I found. I'm not sure that was the most efficient way to do it, I def went down some wrong paths and took me a bit longer than I had anticipated because of it.

  I'm sorry but I have to mention it. The scroll jacking on your webpage is only slightly less annoying than most. Cool app!

    Agreed. It's actually very difficult for me to scroll to a spot where I can actually read the text because it's jumpy.

    Thank you! I hate scroll jacking too. It wasn't doing it in safari and I should have checked her browsers. I removed the js that was doing that, should be normal now. Thanks for pointing it out!

  Living in Upstate New York, this app is sure to make me incredibly depressed. Sarcasm aside, what's to prevent a resident of, say, California from hearing the same stuff every single day? Honestly this does look really cool. Will definitely look into it.

    Well, I'm using a service that lets you create individualized 'stations' that persist. Every time you listen to a song, it is registered and theoretically it should not play the same songs for a while at least. I also have some randomness in the api call every time a new playlist is set up to try and prevent repeats happening. Having said that...its a work in progress, I sometimes do get repeats, but am working to get better results.
