Genius

It's the simple things in life. Coffee that is hot but not scalding. Your girlfriend cleaning her hair out of the shower drain. Your media player making a playlist for you based on the kind of song you are in the mood for?

That's right people, iTunes 8 is here. And while I'm not usually a tech guy in terms of egregious promotion, the Genius function is pretty darn cool. Basically, it takes a song you choose and then builds a playlist around it using online information, other iTunes user preferences and song selection and your song library. Heck, it even tells you what songs you should download (there's got to be something in it for them) to round out your ideal list. Not earthshattering, but pretty darn nice.
