So how does Then Listen To work?
Then Listen To takes advantage of a some great HTML5 features and Javascript libraries to produce the graphs you see.
The d3 Javascript library is used to generate SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) and is the powerhouse behind the visualization system. The system makes asynchronous calls to the Last.fm and EchoNest databases to produce accurate results for recommendations and other data.
Then Listen To uses carefully designed regular expressions to recognize English syntax. These expressions are constantly being stress-tested to ensure that the user is delivered the search experience they expect.
Then Listen To is open-source and hosted on GitHub. Check out the source code here!
