This is My Jam feeds neatly into all of your social media holes and has taken a certain corner of the music sphere by storm since its launch back in December 2011. The initial reaction from the DiS community was mixed but it seems quite a lot of you have come to love it as much as I have, and from what TIMJ co-founder Matthew Ogle (formerly of Last.fm) reveals below, it seems Hollywood A-listers and high-profile British Politicians are fans of it too.»
