I mean those quizes and surveys and things. And why don't they do one that extracts the music listings from your journal and either gives a summary of yours or compares them to your friends or the rest of live journal? Huh?

Because they hate you, obviously. There seems to be an outbreak of them at the moment. [livejournal.com profile] ladyjaida did a project on Memes, once. I forget what it was about.

People write them. There are sites that have most of the code for same already written so people can just plug in ideas (and I should finish the ones I'm writing). Others of them start as things written in someone's journal and a bunch of other people think it's a neat idea and go from there, and so on.

I suspect the latter would be bandwidth-intensive. Though there are a number of things that will pull data from the last fifty public entries and manipulate it (such as the mood pie -- I have a mood pie posted in my userinfo if you have no idea what I'm talking about); that might be something someone could play with. Though the music postings don't tend to have an especially standard formate.
