Title: [ANN] Listen to Mt. Gox
Post by: arsenische on May 13, 2013, 12:05:16 PM
Hi!

I just developed a tiny simple service that synthesizes sounds in real time using mtgox socket API.

The aim is to give you (and me) a feeling of the current market situation: loud sounds mean higher volumes, higher pitch means growth.

Here is the link: http://ansrv.com/listen_mtgox/

You can use it in the background and feel what is happening without even watching the charts, or you can use it together with Clark Moody's realtime charts (http://bitcoin.clarkmoody.com/). It may take some before you start recognizing the signals.

If people find it useful, I will probably improve it, make github repository, etc.

PS: I wanted to do it long ago, but when I saw listentobitcoin.com (http://listentobitcoin.com), it motivated me and gave some technical hints, thanks! :)
