Busy As Hell, But Still Time For Music
I’m effectively working three jobs at the moment, which as you can imagine leaves very little time for blogging. Lots of projects, no time!
Even so, I find I’m contributing a massive amount of content to Blip.fm. There are two reasons for this:
- It requires tiny amounts of effort for a massive return (listening to almost any song I think of).
- The interface is dead simple.
This is a good example of the “having becomes doing” scenario. While I’ve known about Blip.tv forever and was impressed with them, I didn’t spend any time with their brand at all. Sure they were pioneers and had some really brilliant ideas about interface, but I didn’t feel I was participating, collaborating or experiencing anything.
Being a DJ on Blip.fm, however, has burned their brand into my mind. It also motivated me to excitedly pester my friends to check them out.
Apparently it also motivated me to use what little time I have for blogging to write about them and link them three times in a post. Marketers, are you paying attention? Powerful stuff, this!

Oh goodie I’ve been corrected. Ah well.
Thanks Ryan!
