Ajit Jaokar in his blog Opengardens writes about a A mobile social networking system for parties :
“Even in the early days of the ipod, there was a trend among party goers to ‘bring their own music’ to the party (i.e. their music in their own iPod which they wanted to dock in at the event and play it).
With the rise of social networking/mobility, there is the possibility of adding a ‘social network’ element to this activity. In that sense, a service like Partystrands (powered by mystrands ) is a logical extension to this function of bringing your own music. The service seeks to extend the idea of ‘sharing’ music at a party by sending SMS messages about their preferences (and also other messages). These messages are analysed and the playlist is updated based on the aggregated text messages. The screen has other social features like listing names of people at a party, what song is being played, what’s next etc etc.
All this is simple, and frankly pretty mundane.
Mystrands/Partystrands has got some interesting coverage at techcrunch and mobhappy ”
