Freeware of the Moment- Go Pandora one better with OpenPandora

Kevin first turned us onto Pandora a while back and it has become my favorite way to listen to music anytime I have a WiFi connection.  It is uncanny how Pandora takes a suggestion from me about different music that I like and offers me up a mix that is superb.  I have discovered a lot of music I would never have found that I like a lot.  The only wish I’ve had about Pandora is to break the constraint of living in my browser and go stand-alone.

Our Freeware of the Moment is a third party application called OpenPandora that not only frees Pandora from my browser but adds some cool new features as well.  Just take a look at all the stuff OpenPandora adds to an already great service:

• Hide to tray
• Popup tray notification balloon
• Full control from tray icon
• Control with multimedia keyboard
• Global shortcuts
• Mini Player
• Integration with Last.fm
• Integration with Microsoft Messenger
• Integration with Xfire
• Lyrics

OpenPandora is donation-ware so if you like it drop some coin on the developer.  Don’t overlook the Microsoft Messenger integration, it is very cool.

Well, I had seen the post previously about Pandora, but when I saw this and finally checked it out, I was amazed. I have heard so many great new bands, and it is incredible how great a job it does reading my music preferences.

Thanks for this headsup James and Kevin!
