MOG: Discover people through music and music through people

MOG: Discover people through music and music through peopleMOG is a blogging network for music lovers where users can publish thoughts about music and also they can share the names of the songs that they play on their computers (PC or Mac) by using a downloadable program called MOG-O-MATIC that runs in the background and automatically detects songs that you have in your computer folders. (Previously, you must configure the folders which MOG-O-MATIC will search on).
 
It is a blogging network because you can compose posts about your favorite artists, songs or albums. Even you can add videos from a third party like You Tube. And other people can comment about your posts and vote for them (”Like It” button). 
 
MOG is also a social network for music lovers (musicians or fans) and you can find some friends (”moggers”) to share musical tastes. You can use a link “Find MOGs like me” in your MOG page, once you have signed up (for free). Or You can search for a person’s real name, but unless you get it exactly right, you will not get any results. You can also search for a person’s Screen Name if you know it. 
 
To listen the full songs in this musical network you must be a a Rhapsody subscriber, which costs $12 per month. Anyway, non-subscribers will still be treated to the free streaming of 25 songs per month if they download a small application. The bad news are for the residents outside of the United States, because they only can listen 30-second-long samples at this time. Of course, residents within the United States can listen the samples too if they don’t want to download anything or pay for the premium service.

    I was surprised to see the changes to MOG this morning. I have been using the site for a couple months now and logged on to see a pretty white site design. Search is killer, playlists are killer…downloading an app to listen to music? I hate downloading stuff like this, but then again, its 2007 baby! the marriage of desktop applications and web services helps make the web so rad today!

    @Eric: Yeah, I don’t like to need a downloadable program, but I think that, in this case, it is worthwhile.
