The first step to selecting an Influencer is to find a list of listeners to choose from. If you don't have someone specific in mind you'd like to influence you, try browsing fans lists. Use Artist Search to find one of your favorite artists and head to their artist page. Once you're there, look for "Fans" or "Fans of this artist." There you'll find a list of listeners who have rated that artist highly.
When you have a list of listeners or fans to choose from, you can click the "Info" button next to their names to visit their station pages and learn more about their musical tastes. Or, if you already know someone whom you'd like to influence you, visit their station page by typing their Yahoo! ID into the member search box on your station page.
From the station page, scroll down and look for the button that says "Subscribe to my tastes." After you're subscribed, listen to your station for recommendations from your Influencer.
