Google Music Trends

Whoah, freaky. So Google released a new version of Google Talk today -- though the beta's been around for a few weeks. Among file sharing and voice mail is the ability to display the song you're currently listening to as your status message.

I thought it was a silly feature and I can't use it because half the time I'm listening to testmix-02.wav or something boring like that. But they just released Google Music Trends which shows you charts of the most popular songs that users of Google Talk have been listening to. Also, news flash: the Internet really likes Coldplay and Thom Yorke.
