Dear Grand Cindy, Marilyn and Music Loving Booksharians,Marilyn, I can't wait to try the Pandora site. I'm somewhere between you and Grand Cindy when it comes to validating while listening to music. Classical music or instrumental music, like ambient or Celtic or bluegrass, generally feels like a luxurious backdrop to my validating as long as I don't know the words to any of the tunes. When the songs have words, I'm lucky to be able to listen to them and tie my shoes at the same time. It really isn't that bad. I can listen to vocal music as I do audio books while I do chores, knit or groom, anything that's mindless, and validating doesn't fit in the mindless category.
Booksharians have recommended such a well-spring of good sites. I've been thinking of unsubscribing to these Bookshare lists since I've been so remiss in keeping up with e-mail, but if I were to unsubscribe from either of them I'd regret it knowing that practically every day I was missing good stuff.

Sounds great. Thanks.I can listen when doing email, but I get distracted by music when I validate. smileG.Cindy --- On Tue, 7/8/08, Marilyn Beasley <mbeasley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:From: Marilyn Beasley <mbeasley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Maria / Baroque Music To: "Maria O.

It's called "Pandora.com." It takes a few seconds to load up, but then you are given, I think, eight choices of music. If you pick "Classical," there are eight categories under that. I listen to the Classical when I'm validating, but I confess I do jump to "Bubblegum Pop" (under the "Pop" category) once in a while just for kicks. And every time you return to Pandora.com, it immediately starts to play the last music category you chose, but you can change your mind mid-song at any time. Have fun!
