10 Web Sites That Will Matter in 2009

Blip.fm
Blip.fm

Blip.fm really is like Twitter for music. What you see at the site is a scrolling list of people's song choices with their short comments about them. These are called Blips. You can listen to the "blipped" songs as they come up, or skip up and down the list to songs you like. If you like a particular user (called DJs here), you can give them "props" for the songs they play, or you can choose to "follow" that DJ. After you have found a decent number of DJs to follow, you can switch to a mode where you see only that group's blips.

It's surprisingly engaging and fun, especially if you find good DJs to follow, or if your own real-world friends sign up and participate.
