    54379v7-max-250x250

    ShareMyPlaylists, the Spotify community and playlist sharing site, has released an API so that developers can get access to its treasure trove of playlist data — 120,000 playlists, referencing a total of 20 million tracks — and start to build apps or integrations on top of the service. The news will be formally announced at Music Hack Day Stockholm this weekend, an event that the company is… → Read More

    ShareMyPlaylists Launches SMPapps To Build Spotify Apps For Brands — Just Don’t Call It A Pivot

    Screen Shot 2012-09-09 at 15.02.50

    When Kieron Donoghue launched ShareMyPlaylists back in 2009, I thought he was just a little crazy to be building a startup on the back of Spotify’s lack of social features and an ecosystem that didn’t really exist yet. Sure, the music streaming service had a somewhat unreliable API, but it hadn’t even launched in the US and wouldn’t do so for some time. There was no Spotify app store either and… → Read More

    ShareMyPlaylists Gets A Much Needed Android Reboot

    SMPAndroid1

    “To be honest, it was awful”, says ShareMyPlaylists founder Kieron Donoghue on the company’s previous Android effort, which today gets a much needed reboot.

    The new app brings many of the Spotify community site’s best features to Google’s platform, such as its editorally-picked ‘Featured Playlists’ as well as the ‘Top 50 Playlist Charts’. Although be warned: Android users need a premium Spotify… → Read More

    ShareMyPlaylists Relaunches Spotify App Based On Hand-Curated Playlists

    Screen Shot 2012-05-30 at 18.20.39

    ShareMyPlaylists was the first site to allow the sharing of Spotify playlists (launched 2009). It’s now relaunched its music discovery Spotify app based its 91,000 hand-curated playlists. The site competes with the record label Spotify apps like Digster (from Universal Music) and Filtr (Sony Music) but its advantage is that it allows music from all labels and allows user generated content … → Read More

    ShareMyPlaylists lands on iPad ahead of the mothership connection

    ShareMyPlaylists, the music social network built on top of Spotify with the specific purpose of sharing playlists, has landed on the iPad. Interestingly, this is before the European music streaming service has its own dedicated app for Apple’s tablet.

    That’s perhaps a little odd (or preemptive) considering how closely the two services are tied, although ShareMyPlaylists founder Kieron Donoghue… → Read More

    ShareMyPlaylists jumps on the badges bandwagon

    ShareMyPlaylists, the music social network riding the Spotify wave, has introduced Foursquare-style badges. Only in this case the aim isn’t to add gaming metrics to the service, although it’s possible that some may try to game the system, but to reward users for creating popular and high quality playlists. Or to put it another way, “encourage more sharing and repeat use of the site”, explains… → Read More

    ShareMyPlaylists re-launches to ride a bigger Spotify wave

    ShareMyPlaylists, the music social network built on top of Spotify with the specific purpose of sharing playlists, has been given a complete re-write along with a new shiny logo to boot.

    Dumping its previous infrastructure based on WordPress and Buddypress (you’d be surprised how many social offerings start off that way such is the low barrier of entry), the site has been re-engineered with… → Read More

    Want to advertise on Spotify? BigAudioAds could be the answer

    Kieron Donoghue, the guy behind ShareMyPlaylists, appears to be riding the Spotify wave again.

    Today he launches BigAudioAds.com, a service designed to make it easier to produce a professional sounding audio ad ready for ‘broadcast’ on ad-supported music streaming services such as Spotify and the UK’s We7. Although, of course, the resulting ads can be placed anywhere. Right now Spotify is… → Read More

    Can Spotify sustain an ecosystem? ShareMyPlaylists gets funded

    When Spotify upgraded its player, adding a bunch of social features, we feared for the many startups who were already piggybacking the service with their own playlist sharing sites.

    In fact, on the very same day one such offering, ShareMyPlaylists.com, announced that it had received a significant round of funding, news which was largely buried under the weight of Spotify’s news.

    Which begs the… → Read More

    ShareMyPlaylists brings the social to Spotify

    Ever wished Spotify were a litte more… social? That you could share playlists with friends and discuss your favourite tracks? Well, you have been able to for a while with community site ShareMyPlaylists, but the site has just relaunched. The result that its name is now deceiving: you can do an awful lot more than just share playlists. In fact, with its “wire” (a bit like a wall)… → Read More
