I could not help it. When @morbidromantic sent an invite, I checked out Blip.fm and decided to join. Once I got in, I got so enthralled that here I am, writing about it here.
The site is a play where music meets social media. You can share your playlist or ‘DJ’ on your Twitter, Facebook, LiveJournal and a few other social media websites. I have been a bit addicted with it and have already favorited more than two dozen songs.
Also offered there are video clips of songs too. You can also follow those you know or follow people you happened to surf upon and liked their playlist. You can issue ‘props’ or for those familiar with forums, ‘karma’ points. You can also receive ‘props’ from another user if they like your stuff. 
No, you cannot be a DJ, but you can sure feel like one, especially when your audience are the people who follow your updates across the social media world.

I tried something like this with a perl script (yuck) for Last.fm. Good results – it did what it was supposed to do.
Unfortunately, that was also its downfall. Constant tweets of what I was listening to was too much for me. I can’t imagine what it was like for my two or three followers.
Does Blip let you choose what to tweet?
