Facebook has launched a new feature for its website called 'Listen With,' which allows friends to listen to the the same song simultaneously. All one has to do is click the Listen With button and they will automatically tune in to whatever their friend is listening to. If your friend is jamming out to the chorus of Bohemian Rhapsody, the second you click in you will hear the song at the exact same time as your friend.
By allowing users to listen to tunes that are occurring at the same time, Facebook is truly simulating a real-life hang out. This Facebook add-on is sure to get a lot of attention because it's the first time that Facebook has really incorporated music listening into its iconic site.
