Music app Shazam and Google Latitude’s iPhone were updated Monday with social networking features. Shazam 4.0.0 for iPhone added Shazam Friends, while Google Latitude 2.1 lets you “check in” a lá Foursquare for your Buzz friends can see.
Shazam’s patch notes:
Shazam Friends feature: See what your friends are tagging – listen to previews of their tags, buy the track, watch videos and more! To get started Shazam will find your friends through Facebook and see who’s already sharing their music on Shazam.
