Well the RIAA isnt going to be happy about this one. A brand new service by young entrepreneur Justin Ouellette has just hit the net. The service or Muxtape as its coined, allows you to upload your favorite songs and have them saved for playback on the web whenever you want.

The site has only been live 24 hours and its numbers are soaring. (wonder if the servers will hold up) 8600+ users, around 20,000 songs and over 35,000 visits. Pretty impressive to say the least.

This site has a lot of great things going for it, and I have to say it looks promising if he can keep up with the server costs. The sign up page is 3 fields, so right off the bat your in love. Your alloted 12 songs, so they better be your favorites, and there is a cap set at 10mb per file, which is sufficient. From here you can pretty much play your songs directly from your browser or media device. Pretty cool.

I played around with it, uploaded a few tracks and it seems to work smoothly. Another great concept turned social media. What will be next? Video feeds?

Myspace Apps.. who knew?

Yes ladies and gentlemen, Myspace is trying to claw back at Facebook, with none other than their own version of applications in which you can soup up your profile with even more knick-knacks and paddy-wacks. This comes as great news for anyone (??) who still uses Myspace.

Now would be a good time to think about creating/outsourcing the development of your very own Myspace App(s) and take advantage of these viral applications.

Check out the Myspace Developer Platform & you might want to take a peek into Google’s OpenSocial API Specifications.

Also be sure to check out the current Myspace Apps that are being pumped out as we speak…dont miss this opportunity to create and monetize a Myspace App, we all have seen the viral power of Facebook Apps, and a lot of people (for some wierd reason) still use Myspace…prime real estate, so go get your own street sign.

So what exactly is winzy.com you ask? Well, it is a search engine with an ingenious twist.. whether or not that twist will help with the longevity of the site remains to be seen.

Basically there are 3 ways you can win prizes, by seasrching and winning instantly, inviting friends, and earning points to enter into monthly draws. If you are a winner you will see a notification on your screen telling you what you need to do to redeem your prize.

	search and win

So the more you use them to search, the higher the chance that you will win something. As to the depth and reach of their search engine… that remains to be seen as well.

So I was bored in between websites and school work today and came across meez.com, a unique website that allows you, the user, to create a virtual 3d replication of yourself, for your own and others amusement. Viral media anyone? Not too sure yet, they launched back in March 07 and were in beta up until late October, so anything is possible really. Considering this is the first ive heard of it, it doesn’t look like it took off with a bang… however it must be starting to circulate.

Meez allows its users to create their own animated avatars, or “3D I.D.” graphics, for the Web. They partnered with photobucket which allows for easy hosting of your 3d ID graphic as well as smooth exports.

So after some fooling around, here is my end result:
