Following on from my posts about Tweets being a goldmine of information to be mined, I decided to blog about how people are using Twitter for their musical needs. Finished however with an online app that doesn't actually use Twitter, but is Twitter for music.
Twisten.fm is a nice simple list of tracks that are being twittered about with links to the tracks mentioned. It's like Hype Machine for Twitter. It comes from GrooveShark, which is another interesting music app. But more on that another day!

Tweetj is some proper musical Twitter data mining. The homepage lists artists / songs that have been twittered about recently. There is also a top 100 songs being twittered about, great for seeing if you've got your finger on the pulse.

If you use FoxyTunes, then this is a nice app so you can twitter tracks easily. A nice extension to this might be an app that keeps a play list of what you listen to and then maybe once an hour, or every few hours, it posts a playlist online and twitters the URL.

twt.fm is all about formalising the way music is posted on Twitter. Which is a great idea. You normally can't tell what short URLs contain in tweets, so this is useful. It will also find a version of your chosen track online to play.

blip is great. It is twitter for music. It is your own radio station. Is it sharing music. Is it finding new music. It is great.
