Business
Computer science is the great equalizer when it comes to the opportunity to start a company. If you can get your hands on a working laptop and some coding tutorials, you can build a product. Shahar Ben-Dor, a Sophomore Mechanical Engineering student at Georgia Tech, is a living example of this. This June, he released AuxBox, the hot, new iOS app that makes listening to music a more interactive and social experience. Combining the concepts of a Juke Box and an Aux Chord, Shahar's app allows you to create a collaborate music channel where everyone listening can add songs from Spotify or Apple Music and listeners can vote on which song plays next. It makes car rides, parties, restaurants, and other music listening venues a place where everyone gets a voice on what is played. Listen in to learn the many insights from Shahar's story in building the next big thing in his startup dorm room. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/startupdormroom/support
