FACEBOOK: LISTEN TO MUSIC WITH YOUR FRIENDS

Alexandre Roche, a Product Designer at Facebook, wrote a blog post on The Facebook Blog on the platform's newest feature.

From last week and over the next few weeks, Facebook is rolling out a new feature called 'Listen to Music With Your Friends'. It's a new way to listen to music with your friends.

Here's some more info from the blog post at blog.facebook.com:

"This feature lets you listen along with any of your friends who are currently listening to music. You can also listen together in a group while one of your friends plays DJ.

You can listen to the same song, at the exact same time—so when your favorite vocal part comes in you can experience it together, just like when you're jamming out at a performance or dance club.

Look for the music note in the chat sidebar to see which of your friends are listening to music. To listen with a friend, hover over their name, and click the Listen With button. The music will play through the service your friend is using.

When a new song plays, you'll come along for the ride, discovering new music while your friend DJs for you.

You'll also have the option to chat about what you're listening to. As other people start listening along, they'll join the party in a group chat."
