Shazam is a mobile phone app for identifying music being played in the surroundings. It was founded by Chris Barton, Philip Inghelbrecht, Avery Wang and Dhiraj Mukherjee in the year 1999. It uses themicrophone of a mobile phone to sample the music being played nearby. This sample is then matched in a database to find out what song is it. Shazam, in short, answers one very common question that gets asked in a group “What song is this?“. Starting as an Internet startup, it has gained a lot of popularity and business.
Shazam has exclusively been there for smartphones. However, even for nerds who stick to their computers it is sometimes necessary to find out what song is playing on the radio.
