'Song for Pic' Adds Music to Instagram Photos

Ready to add a little music to Instagram photos? A new platform called Song for Pic randomly matches songs to your pictures and lets you and your friends vote on which works best.

The free service, which syncs with your existing Instagram account, can be played and shared with friends, letting everyone vote on a soundtrack for certain pictures.

Here's how it works: After Song for Pic connects to your Instagram account (just sign in), it will randomly choose a picture from your library. Then, it offers four song choices, which can be played by selecting one of the colored boxes highlighted below the image. A voting feature lets others weigh in on their favorite song pick.

For example, a picture of the real-life Facebook wall at the company's New York City office was paired with suggestions such as "Jump, Jump" by Kris Cross, "Viva La Vida" by Coldplay and "Candy Shop" by 50 Cent. We don't know why, but the suggestions are amusing to flip through.

Although Song for Pic is fun the first few rounds, there are still some limitations: you can't send the link with the photo and chosen song to your friends. Still, it's worth a try -- and fun to see your photos sing.
