We Are Hunted - The Online Music Chart
by garretAbout:
We listen to what people are saying about artists and their music on blogs, social networks like Facebook and MySpace, message boards and forums, Twitter and P2P networks to chart the top songs online everyday.
A new Top of the Pops
In the offline world, charts are built on shipped albums. Online charts have been a simple count of digital downloads. We Are Hunted is different. We discover new music from around the web and detect sentiment, expression and advocacy to understand what people like and dislike.
A Better Way to Discover Music
Visually driven, intuitive and simple, We Are Hunted seeks to be a daily destination for music lovers looking to discover their next favorite artist. Through We Are Hunted, music fans can discover new music and more importantly, join the conversation about it.
