So the most interesting thing I found this morning happens to be this new website called Muxtape.com. Users create an account, log in, and then begin to upload mp3’s from their own personal library to form a 12-song mixtape that anyone with a browser can click and listen to. So naturally I jumped on it and I’ve got one up now that you can check out. Nothing special or super-rare or KBD OOP for me, but considering we’re talking about mp3’s here, if anyone did get into some kind of crazy internet pissing contest over who has the best bandwidth or bitrate or customized page, I think my brain would collapse into itself and melt into a primordial sludge, rendering me unable to enjoy this fancy new non-community (which is probably my favorite feature since now I don’t have to make new internet friends like every other website makes you do these days).
