Blip.fm, tunes with twitter

So i’m like a child with a new toy at the moment.  Blip.fm is being referred to as Twitter but with music.  That pretty much sums it up.  It allows you to post a song and associate a reference to it.  For example I have recently posted “Awesomeness…in the sweet screaming way” to the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s Down Boy.  One of the many really great things about it, is you can link it to your Twitter and automatically feed your Blips to your followers.  Using the same @ commands as Twitter, you can also dedicate songs to your Twitter friends.  As with many of the great new community led sites out there (Dopplr for one) the guys behind Blip really understand the value in feedback, and through the feedback tab on the right hand side of the site, they keep users updated on developments they are making to the product as well as welcoming new suggestions. I like.
