Mixa - Cassettes are Fashionable

I brought up Muxtape in the past which is just a simple upload tool for sharing 12 songs online. If 12 songs and dependency on an internet-connected computer is too limiting for you, consider Mixa.

Shaped like an average cassette tape, it's actually a USB drive. The connector actually slides in and out from the side of the tape. With 1 GB of storage space, you can get lots of songs on it. Also, you can design the J-card (that's the folded paper in the cassette case for you youngsters) with original art, Flickr pics, or one of their pre-designed options. Pretty slick.

However, the converted U.S. price is ~$45. Might be a little too pricey for a 1 GB drive theses days. If you live in England, it's only 19 pounds. (That's money over there.)

Why Do I Do This?

I was originally inspired by the Web log posted on the site for Propellerhead Software. They developed a cool 808 emulator which eventually morphed into an entire digital audio workstation package (Reason). Those early posts documented their development process and gave a human insight into their struggles. It was cool. So, I bought some hosted space and figured out FrontPage to put a rudimentary site together. My goal was to connect my family, but then realized this could be a great way for me to keep track of happenings over time. Eventually, the manual, HTML journal gave way to this Blogger setup - much easier to deal with, and not bound to one computer.

Ultimately, this is more about nothing than an episode of Seinfeld, but I appreciate that you've read this far. Really.
