mp3 files and listen to them on your 'puter or iPhone with SeeqPod, an intriguing search engine that looks only for media files on the Web. (Yes, even David Hasselhoff music is fair game.) This is a really interesting service. You can find specific artists and listen to them play as you surf, share music with friends, even embed the tunes in your Web site or blog. My favorite feature so far? The "Discovery" button: listen to a cornucopia of the most recently discovered music that SeeqPod has found on the Web.

类似 del.icio.us， 区别是专门为了网上的视屏和音频而生。此网站称自己为"Social Media Organizer"（社会媒体管理器）。可以让你保存管理网上你中意的视屏音频连接，并给他们加标签，制作成播放列表，并且还有类似DIGG的投票功能，给你喜欢或不喜欢的用户播放列表投票。到目前为止这一网上服务仅支持来自YouTube, Google Video, Yahoo! Video, 和 iFilm 的视频。不过其实，这已经足够了，因为大部分的视频不就是来自这些地方么。在音频方面，还有很大的局限性，不过还是值得一看的。

I love finding good music mashups, and MusicMesh is definitely one of the better ones that I've come across lately. You've got a lot to look at here: just type in your favorite artist's name and you'll be treated to a smattering of related albums plus what you're looking for, as well as YouTube vids, track listings, user reviews, Wikipedia entries, etc. I got pretty distracted following the related music suggestions; they seem to be pretty well thought out as compared to other music services that in my experience can put some pretty wild stuff together. Worth a look and a listen.- Wendy Boswell

Those of us who love Pandora will especially enjoy Musicovery, an "interactive webRadio." Here's how it works: you pick a main genre, such as classical, soul, pop, etc. Then you pick a "mood" within that genre; this could be anything from energetic to positive to dark. After that, you'll get a visual representation of your musical selections all looped together, and you can zip around from bubble to bubble as the whim strikes you. Musicovery is a nice way to find music that I wouldn't have thought of, and while it does need some tweaking (why no playlists?), and it's definitely not a Pandora-killer, it's still a great way to plug into and explore your favorite music. Oh, and no registration required - just start listening away. - Wendy Boswell
