Tools 'n Tricks of the Trade

We all know about Myspace, the only thing I really rate it for is the Musicplayer's and discovering new artists. Tables are slowly turning though and new stuff is emerging to reign supreme on the digital music and information market. Here are my two fav toys of the moment (assuming you know last.fm already):

Seeqpod: Just about the sickest new music gadget on the web, I tip my hat to these dudes. Essentially it searches the web for music files you wanna get, and allows you to line them up in a player which streams the tunes straight to your speaker. Not only is it a wicked way of hearing new tunes from your fav artist (or looking up tunes mentioned in blogs like this!) but it even allows you to save playlists, meaning you never have to download a tune again......SICK!!!!

Songkick: Musiclovers live for livemusic and these guys have created a program that scans your computer and tells you about upcoming events that could be of interest to you! You never gotta look at the listings again. They even propose similar acts you may be interested in, making it doubly usefull.
