First installment… Muxtape. The site is best described by its own tagline: “a simple way to create and share mp3 mixtapes”.  Creating an account is dead simple (you are asked for a name, a password, and an e-mail address) and then you are immediately able to create your muxtape by uploading 12 MP3’s.

Your muxtape comes complete with a unique url (mine is austinmoody.muxtape.com), RSS feed, and HUGE fonts (Web 2.0 FTW!).

I love this site, and hope it stays around.  My biggest worry, of course, is how long the record industry will allow it to stay around.  The Muxtape terms in the line that people cannot upload “songs they do not have permission to let Muxtape use” which I figure means just about anything.

Quick!  I need to find some new artists to check out.  Create a Muxtape and slap the url in the comments.

Oh yeah… another bonus for iPhone owners, you can totally listen to music from a Muxtape direct on your device.  Good times.
