Much Muxyness By Amanda on March 29, 2008 2:59 PM | Permalink | Comments (0)
Update: Boney Earnest has a muxtape.
Update 2: So the day before Phineas alerted me to Muxtape, I read about Mixwit and had a look round their site and filed it away for later. Now, Muxtape has been all over teh innertubes in the last three or four days, the big tech blogs, the social networking things, everywhere. And somewhere in the comments box of most of them, a wee voice pipes up: but Mixwit does the same thing, but better! Poor Mixwit. I took pity on them, also-rans in the startup buzz stakes. So I'm trying to make a Mixwit tape. Instead of you uploading your own songs, you enter a song and it searches the web for a stream of it. I don't know how that works. So anyway, my first song I put in was "Bring Me Flowers While I'm Living" by Champion Jack Dupree. No dice. Some Dupree but not the ones I want. So the next artist I put in is Jim Ford. No Jim Ford but one result I do get back is "Ford Announces Layoffs, Plants Closing" by artist "The Newshour with Jim Lehrer." Le sigh.
Update3: I got fed up with Mixwit, so I made another muxtape instead.
