Sven Seelenmeyer is a software developer, music enthusiast and creator of a unique application that combines both of his passions to offer users a method of enjoying online music. While it indeed has its limitations, the very least that can be said about Seelenmeyer's Space Jammer is that it truly is a one of kind utility, scouring the artist pages at MySpace.com for music which it them offers as a series of random playlists. Unfortunately, MySpace isn't really the big name that it used to be in social media so therefore it is difficult to say whether Seelenmeyer's project would have proven more popular had it been created a few years earlier. Nonetheless, it does exactly what it purports to and there have been no known reports of malfunction, showing at the very least that, as a developer, Seelenmeyer can translate a novel idea into a solid, workable product. The developer also shows some keen insight into product design, incorporating a fair amount of customizability into Space Jammer, such as the ability to filter music style preferences and save playlists, though as software site Snapfiles.com points out in their lukewarm review of the product, it is lacking a search function, which severely limits the application's overall usefulness. Whether the latter exclusion was an oversight or simply beyond Seelenmeyer's design capabilities is unclear but it does render the project relatively average. Furthermore, Seelenmeyer's documentation of the project is almost non-existant; despite actually including a "documentation" area on his project site, all he provides are screenshots with brief descriptions, hardly the work of an established developer. While Seelenmeyer shows some innovation as a developer, his effort with Space Jammer is, on the whole, more reflective of a hobbyist.
