It is a while since I heard about a program like Shazam ID, but back then I didn’t give it another thought, but when I saw it on NRKBeta’s pages I waned to try it out! Shazam ID is a program made for mobile phones with S60 software! (Here you can see is your phone is a S60 phone), and its free, or they say you have a 30 day trail, but on NRKBetas page you can read (I know its in Norwegian! That’s why I’m writing it here ) about people that have been using it for a long period of time now!

Here are two tests done by NRKBeta in Norway!

Test 1: In a noisy bar!

Test 2: In a taxi cab!

In Part III I will show how to innstall!

Shazam ID - Part I…

Have you ever heard that song on the radio that you couldn’t remember the name or the artist playing that song? Well, here is the program for you! Shazam ID. You install it on your mobile phone, and with the push of some buttons you get the information about witch song, artist and album! And it works great! It works like this:
You start the program, and press “Tag Now”! That was the “hard” part! Now the program does the rest! It samples about 10 seconds of the music, sends the sample, either via 3G/GPRS on your phone or through WLAN (if your phone has that) to a central database, and within you can react the answer is there on you screen!
I have put it trough two testes today, and it was no problem for Shazam ID.

Test 1: From the radio! I am playing Norwegian radio on my computer. I start Shazam ID on my phone, and record. Within seconds I have my answer!

Test 2: From my MP3 player! I start a song on my Ipod, set the ear peace to the mice on my phone, and let Shazam ID do its magic! And It works!

I will come back with another post about how to get it installed on your phone, and some other tests!
