Post Facebook wants to 'listen' to your music and TV
Quote:
Facebook is to release a new feature on its mobile app that "listens" to your music and TV shows.

If the song or show is recognised by the app, users can publish the information on their profile or to selected friends.

The service hopes to take advantage of the "second screen" trend, which sees fans of TV shows in particular sharing their experiences on social networks.

Not creepy at all.

Not that it matters such here - people (including FaceBook) know full well that I watch a lot of Doctor Who already.

I wonder what percentage of users will turn that on?
