Wondering What Your Website Sounds Like? CodeOrgan Plays Your Tune
I don’t know about you but I’ve always wondered to myself, “self wtf does centernetworks really sound like?” Well as of today I no longer need to ask myself that question. I can just head over to CodeOrgan, pop in a url and hear what the site sounds like.
Here’s how they come up with the sounds:
- to find the key – CodeOrgan pulls in all text, removes non-musical characters and then figures out which note is most commonly used
- synthesizer – whichever letter matching one of the 10 synthesizer effects is most popular
- drum loop – uses 10 loops and finds the most popular matching loop to content that is analyzed on the page that was entered into the CodeOrgan musical entry box and then the analysis to which is performed
InsideTransit is in the key of CM with a rock guitar and the number 6 drum loop. HTMLCenter pulls in key of A with “rifty” and the number 1 drum loop. And drumroll please, CenterNetworks has a vibe of key of A, strings and a drum loop number 8. I think I like the way CN sounds the best out of the three.
I tried out a variety of sites to hear their tunes – it’s pretty neat for a few minutes break in the workday. Interestingly, one blog I tried an error popped up, “too much bitching can’t process audio”.
Maybe there is a business model in selling mp3 recordings of your websites for $1. I’d buy my suite of sites straight away as they sound pretty darn decent. It would also be nice if they allowed for embedding the music as a widget so as readers are perusing your content, they can get a feel for the vibe of the website or blog.
Leave a comment with the sounds and melodies you like best on CodeOrgan. Make sure you leave a comment with the CodeOrgan link including the blog or website address in the link.
Happy weekend everyone!
