Think of the out of focus cluster of leaves at the back as Pandora, one of my favorite sites that is no longer available to Canadians. I wrote about this back in 2007. The semi out of focus leaves to the left could be Last.fm, which I still use and scrobble my iPods with. The top leaf could be Yahoo! Music, the 2nd most popular streaming on demand music site.

So you're asking, what about the leaf in focus? What did Victor find? The answer, which is new to me but may not be to you (one of 10 million users), is imeem.com. Social media on-demand streaming music at its finest (for now). Read the Wired article that led me to it. (And can you believe the whole Wired / TechCrunch pissing match? What a waste of time, I'm not even going to link to it. How unprofessional can these popular sites get? Please. Stop.).

Note: The photo is of a red leaf Japanese Maple tree taken last week on a sunny day at the VanDusen Botanical Gardens, that I forcibly related to this post. This was surprisingly my first visit ever, so take a look at some of my photos from VanDusen on Flickr.
