SoundCloud Social

Play tracks from soundcloud collaboratively and chat about them. Heavily inspired by http://www.youtubesocial.com
The track is started synchronously. All participants always hear the same position of the song. Everyone can chat with each other while the track plays.

This hack was build by Johan after an idea by Nils at the Music Hack Day Barcelona 2010.

Used technology:
SoundCloud Javascript Widget Player
Rails 3
Socky

How to install:
Make sure you have Ruby 1.9.2 running. Install all gems with "bundle install".

How to run:
1) Make sure that config.yml and config/socky_hosts.yml point to your server (if in development then localhost)
2) start rails with 'rails server'
3) start socky websockets server with 'socky -c config.yml'
