Hey, any of you guys upgraded to iTunes 10 w/Apple Ping yet? Sounds like this is like the last.fm/Audioscrobbler things we did in the past..

I upgraded but haven't activated ping yet because I'm trying to decide if it'll just be one more music profile I don't use. I was annoyed when Microsoft created the Zune Social, so Apple doing this seems belated and really...well...annoying. But I'm sure it'll work for them, because of their devoted fanbase. At least I can scrobble to last.fm with iTunes, Microsoft still doesn't allow it, so you have to use backdoor 3rd party apps to do it.

Most use of the word "ping" in a thread title ever.

I was going to last night but I completely forgot about it. I really don't see myself taking advantage of it at all -- I don't spend much time on iTunes (I sync maybe once very month or two to my iphone and that's it). It needs a web-based interface.

not wanting to be left behind, microsoft's new social network will be called titleist.

It's existed for a few years, it's called the Zune Social.
