Audio blogging

OK, this is a cool idea. It's not absolutely brand new undiscovered territory, but it's still pretty fresh:

Audioscrobbler

This is a site which, using a plugin (compatible with both Winamp and iTunes), logs all of the songs you're listening to, compiles charts, and shares your songs with everyone else on the site. You can create networks of friends (who you can chat with), and neighbours (who's taste in music matches your own). Streaming audio is available based on both individual and neighbourhood music lists.

It's very indie in it's focus, and there are some great lists of music online. The streaming audio option makes it well worth the learning curve.
