After launching a music search engine and then teaming up with Seeqpod for the provision of additional search results and releasing a sponsored promotional option for artists, Songza has just added two new updates which will be pretty handy for its users, and will undoubtedly help take Songza in the long run. I say that primarily because the new features help Songza make its content more shareable across the web, and aid the users through a recommendation tool that’s a bit of a necessity when it comes to music that’s found online.

Everyone’s Doin’ the Twitter

For making content more shareable, Songza has added a “Twitter This” option to the menu that appears when you click on a song in your search results or playlist. This will post your song to Twitter, similar to TinyURL. Songza’s team has had a great deal of experience working with apps that thrive on the Twitter economy, so I wasn’t surprised to see this as one of the primary updates included in the site. Given the recent efforts by MySpace to make content more shareable, perhaps a “Post to MySpace” option is next?!

The other option Songza has released in this update is a new section called “other artists you might like.” It’s powered by OneLlama, and takes Songza a bit in the direction of Pandora and all the rest. The bottom line, however, is that Songza has added recommendations to its music search tool, and that can only help Songza in the end. What’s an online music search engine without the recommendations?
