Jawbone to introduce new playlist service to let you suggest songs to friends through Twitter

Jawbone is looking to introduce a new music service called Drop. The Next Web stumbled upon the new service through Twitter’s Flight mobile developer conference and its Twitter account that asked attendees to request songs for the event. Jawbone’s Drop account then responded with a link to drop.jawbone.com.

The app will let you choose a song to “drop” as a tweet to a specific user. It will then take you to the Twitter app with a pre-composed tweet. It is currently an iOS app with no word when it’s coming to Android.
