I know, right? How did it take me this long to make a Muxtape?

What’s Muxtape? Only one of the most charming services I’ve seen in a long time. I used to make a LOT of mix tapes back in the day. So, when I saw Muxtape (through Brian), I couldn’t help but fall in love.

It is so freakin’ simple.

Upload songs. Put them in order. Publish a mix tape to your friends.

Yeah, I know. This probably won’t sit well with the RIAA (what does?). But Muxtape is a great lesson in UX. They have metaphore (I love how your Muxtape URL is on the white strip of the cassette image when you are logged in… so cute). They have the right amount of Ajax-y goodness (drag to reorder songs… save changes immediately on the page). The playback interface is dead simple. Click on the song to start playing… it just keeps going through to the next track until you stop it.

There’s really a lot to love.

So, here’s my Muxtape.
