    SoundCloud Meetup Torino took place yesterday, MAY 25 and SoundClouders from Torino SoundCloud Community finally met IRL for the first time!

    The venue - Megabeatz Studio - happened to be located inside my ex-primary school, now a place for artists and musicians (photo).

    A couple of SoundClouders got cool cameras and took photos of all the attendees. Hopefully the pics will be posted on SoundCloud Meetup Torino Facebook event. Stay tuned!

  9. A Facebook Like from FriendFeed co-Founder

    Yesterday Paul Buchheit (Y Combinator, FriendFeed co-Founder and GMail creator) posted ‘Open Spark Project - Your Music! Played through Lightning!’ on FriendFeed. Pretty cool. I can only imagine how the music and entertainment industry will use this invention in the near future!

    So I liked the post on FriendFeed, retweeted it and shared the Open Spark Project stunning video on Facebook tagging the source/him. And WOW (check out the screenshot above).

    This also reminds me that the Like was originally a FriendFeed concept that was later adopted by Facebook when they acquired FF. As FriendFeed is my all time favorite social network, this Like from FriendFeed co-Founder made my day!
