When we started Exfm four years ago, we had one goal. To help people discover and listen to new music on the web. What started as a Chrome extension quickly grew to a website, iPhone app, Android app, blog widget and API. Along the way we had people from over 200 countries use our apps and more...
Not quite four years ago, John Maloney sent an email introducing me to Dan Kantor, writing “you both know a lot about music and should connect.”
A couple of weeks later, on the day Dan and I were scheduled to meet, I figured I should have seen what he was working on and installed the extension.fm plugin (it was Chrome plugin-only back in the day, kids).
After installing, I didn’t get it. I shrugged, did some other stuff on the web for a little while, and then looked back at extension.fm to try to figure it out. I looked at the library of music that Exfm had built for me in just a few minutes, and the lightbulb went on. I twittered:
Wow. @dankantor may have just given me a reason to shift over to Chrome.

I’m disappointed that Exfm as we knew it will be no more, but Dan and crew did some fantastic work, and I hope and trust that they’re proud.
