Facebook is enhancing its music listening options by launching Listening With Friends, a feature that will let Facebook friends listen to music together via chat. As the feature rolls out to all of Facebook’s 800 million users over the next few weeks, a music note will appear next to a user’s name in the chat list if he or she is listening to a song. If other users want to listen in, they can hover over the other user’s name and click a ‘Listen With’ button. Then, that user will be taken to the music server that’s playing the song.
