Mashable! - MOG Launches Moggles: Find Music By Snapping Album Art With

Music subscription service MOG has gone all Google Goggles with a new update that lets you take pictures of album art in order to find music. Meet Moggles.

To find the tool, navigate to the second home screen of the (iPhone or Android) app — swipe to the right. Aim at an album of your choosing and snap away. Granted, Moggles is still in beta, so it still doesn’t work perfectly — in fact, a warning screen will pop up when you first use it that says that the service “may produce inaccurate or hilarious results.”

In my own test, I had issues locating music from snapshots of the CDs on my desk. However, when I tried snapping a pic of Beck’s Odelay on my computer screen, the album came right up on the app. Quirks aside, though, it’s a fun idea.

The update also includes the ability to favorite artists, albums, tracks and playlists; sign in from multiple devi ces (watch out Tennessee); and other tweaks.
