Très Awesome Aussie Music Start-up

It’s been exciting seeing a Brisbane music technology start-up by Nick Crocker / Ben Johnston and Wotnews getting a colossal amount of attention on Tumblr, Twitter, TechCrunch, Mumbrella, Wired and news.com.au as well as hundreds of blogs.

We Are Hunted is a daily music chart that generates a list of the 99 most popular songs based on information gained by tracking online music services like BitTorrent, Last.fm, MySpace Music and discussion activity about the songs on social networks, forums, blogs, and Twitter.

This really is rad.

Finally, it is a chart for the music that people really talked about and listened to instead of the regular BS chart system that is based on sales in selective offline and online stores. Nice.
