Songza, the popular music curation app, now offers playlists not only based on mood, but on the weather too. The music curation site can now connect to the weather network in your area, and match sunny skies to bright and uplifting playlists.
For those who have not used Songza, it's great for putting on in the background while doing work or having people over. Not a whole lot of thought is involved on the user's part, as all they have to do is click on what mood they are in, and various playlists will be offered to them. Having another playlist based on the weather is just one more way to attract potential listeners who love matching their music to the current surroundings.
