This project was initially completed in my 6th week at Dev Bootcamp, and was built using Ruby, Sinatra, JavaScript (jQuery and AJAX). I used the Last.fm, Google Maps, and YouTube APIs.
Since then, MapJamz has grown to more accurately reflect track rankings of certain countries, such as South Korea. For this, the Melon API was integrated (thanks Zino!).
