I was kinda bummed to hear that muxtape got the axe from the rotten RIAA, but there's a new kid in town, and he's called 8tracks. The folks at 8tracks claim to be legal, and from what I've read, it sounds like they are. I hope they make it. You can create any number of mixes by uploading tracks, organizing your mix (it must include at least eight tracks), and sharing it with other 8tracksters. Here's my first. Tell me what you think:

I suppose I should say something about my blog's name: I do realize that the toy you all knew and loved as a child is, in fact, a wiffle ball (no h), but my moniker--Captain Whiffle--is actually the name of a character from an 18th-century English novel. (Ten points if you can name which one.) So, just imagine if this guy threw a party: it would be a Whiffle Ball--kind of like this blog!
