Blogs

Rich found a site called The Hype Machine. The Hype Machine tracks a variety of MP3 blogs. If a post contains MP3 links, it adds those links to its database and displays them on the front page.

Some of the frequently accessed tracks are cached by the Hype Machine server, much like Google Search caches web pages, to reduce load on the bloggers’ servers and protect their bandwidth.

Those tracks are NOT available for download, but you can preview them via the play buttons that are next to each track. If you like the tracks, you can use the Amazon.com and iTunes links to buy them. This supports the actual artists!

Views

Rich is using a service that he absolutely loves! It’s called TextMarks. He originally heard of this service from Dave Jackson at the Musicians Cooler. With this service you can set up keywords and refer people to them for updates and news, or simply give them information about yourself or your service. They text the keyword to 41411 on their mobile and get a text message in return. You can set it up so that people can subscribe to the keyword. Anytime you update the information it sends it directly to their phones!

Here is one of the widgets that Rich has set up:
