Posterous vs. Tumblr: A Head to Head

A friend of mine just called to let me know that I'm in Mashable's article about Posterous vs. Tumblr. I started using Posterous a year ago now. It's the one place where I post my work and nothing else. I enjoy the email features, tagging, autoposting to other networks, Google Analytics, and more. Overall, I give Posterous an A+ for new feature development and for the willingness to listen to the users who give it life. In this article I happened to be the latest post on Jennifer's Posterous subscription page when she took a screen capture of one of my posts. On purpose or not, Pretty cool. :) Thanks.

New Beat - "Waggles - Treats"

So a while back I decided to test out Tunecore.com to see if it actually works, which by the way is Awesome with a capital A. I created a little tune I like to call "Treats" :) and since it was a test I named the artist "Waggles" (and of course had to add my eye as the cover). If I had known then that I couldn't change the name once it was on iTunes then I would've used my real name. But oh well. So it looks like my little experiment worked. You can check it out by searching "waggles - treats" in the itunes music store and/or/also I have attached an image of all the other stores that the track is in as well.

Itunes: click here
Emusic/GoodMusic: click here
Rhapsody: click here

Overall I am happy with what Tunecore is doing and I'm sure a lot independent artists love it just as much as I do. It only costs $9.99 to add an album to every store for a year and is then renewable.

Let me know what you think of the song or at least the first 30 seconds of it :)
