My name is Cocotron and this is my jam

hi Christopher,

We develop our audio analysis and synthesis platform in Cocoa and test on OSX but wanted to start releasing web apps using our stuff. We found out about Cocotron last year and have been making great use of it, and recently we've been releasing some of our stuff -- an analysis API ( you can get at the alpha version at http://developer.echonest.com/ ) and also an on-line beatmatching tool ( http://thisismyjam.com ) -- both could not have been possible without the Cocotron. They both run on amazon ec2 machines and we've had practically no problems with the port.

Just wanted to write and say thanks for creating the project.

Brian

Wow, very cool stuff and completely simple to use. I should also point out they are running on Linux. One impressive point is how few problems Brian reported to get here.
