WYOU-FM: Make Your Own Radio Stations

Want music to fuel your treadmill walk at home? Pandora could be a fun resource for you! Move over Sirius and XM. Pandora's a free, computer-based site where you create your own personal radio stations.

What it does: Tell Pandora some of your musical favorites and it’ll start suggesting similar music—and playing it--in a streaming radio station format. Currently, our radio empire consists of one station designed to play female rappers like MC Lyte and Queen Latifah, and the other that plays disco like Annie and Abba.

How it does that: Read the FAQ for the technical stuff. See “How Do I Tune My Pandora Stations”.

Pandora wins two Walktopia awards: One for a wonderful slogan. ‘Only the music matters’ and the other for their short but sweet 10/12/06 blog post that spotlights audiophiles at age 70 and over.
