What's The Deal?!
Why another mp3 blog site you ask?
The answer is that it seemed to some members of the mp3 blogging world that a lot of the interesting resources were spread throughout the net. While we all love the Elbo.ws forum, the Hype Machine's top blog list, Tofu Hut's mp3 blog list and all of the info over at the Wiki, we just felt it'd be nice to have one place where all that stuff is accessible in some small way. We hope that the site will be a valuable and fun place for bloggers to visit but it's main intent is to be a place where members of the press can come weekly to see what's happening in the blogosphere (we'll also attempt to coin a less annoying phrase!).
The main feature of the site at the moment will be a weekly review type post of all the great features, interviews, and community posts from the week that was. The weekly post can be delivered to you if you sign up to the right. Initially we'll send it out as a weekly email to as many members of the press that we can add to our list. So if you have any contacts with the press please email us here - musicbloggersunited@gmail.com. We're coming at this from the angle that all of these outlets need content and instead of having them just somehow stumble upon our posts (i.e. our great works of literary art) we'll deliver them to their email inbox.
P.S. Thanks to everyone involved but especially Jeff from DIYRockstar, Moka from Motel de Moka, Merz from Mars Need Guitars and Victoria from Muruch. Extra special thanks to Malachy Egan for the header graphic (contact him at malachy dot egan at gmail dot com).

I nominate "blogodrome" to replace "blogosphere." I tried dropping it in the last contrast podcast I was in, but it didn't take. Credit where due, I stole it from wigu.com. You know it's cooler.
au contraire, thank you.
Love the header!

Hi,
How might I go about getting my blog listed on this site?
There's probably a really obvious pointer somewhere on the site, but common sense was never my strong point :)
(Oh, my blog's http://www.atthesinema.blogspot.com, by the way)
