    #nwplyng was a free, fun & simple way to share music with friends on Facebook, Twitter & Foursquare. Imagine being at a breathtaking landscape, your favorite bar down the road or stuck in a cab in Downtown NYC and your favorite song comes on. It makes you either jump up and down, gives you goose bumps, sit back in the most serene state or trigger a past memory. Music has an incredible power to evoke emotions within us. #nwplyng lets you share those very moments. We were seed funded by MobME Wireless Solutions Pvt Ltd, and incubated at Startup Village.
