Find the name of a song when you don't even know the words.
That's right. There's a search engine that you can sing or hum into, and it will return some songs in the search results.
It's called Midomi. I found out about it from this Fried Beef post.

You cannot be that old that you need it are you? This is an invaluable tool for anachronisms like me, but for you younger people? I am surprised.
Well, the thing is I never really pay attention to lyrics. But I internalize melodies and remember them for a long time.
There a song that plays where the only phrase that gets through to me is "What a drag it is to get old" or something like that.
So I asked around and found out that it was by the Rolling Stones. Even then, some folks don't know the name of it. (It's "Mother's Little Helper"). But with Midomi, I could've found it all out very quickly.
Besides, I'm fascinated with the engineering of it. The pattern recognition achievement is awesome!
