Your Facebook profile can tell a lot about you -- personal information, education background, career details, pictures, videos and much more. Several applications and websites can help you share your musical preferences on your Facebook profile by helping you to create a music playlist. MixPod, Playlist.com and SongArea.com work in tandem with Facebook to help you create and share your favorite songs.
