Insert Songs in Emails and Blogs.

FoxyTunes is releasing a new version that has several upgrades, and a new feature, Signatunes, letting you add music to your emails and blog posts. The new version will be launched tomorrow.

Signatunes comes with the new FoxyTunes upgrade, and shows up in your message editor in services like Yahoo Mail. The FoxyTunes icon, when clicked, will add your currently playing song to your email message or blog post. Signatunes currently works with Facebook Notes and Mail, Yahoo, GMail, MySpace blogs, AOL Mail, Horde, WordPress, Hotmail and SquirrelMail. The song appears to the recipients as a link for the song directing to FoxyTunes’ website.

Additional feature upgrades include a web search or lyrics, artist images, videos, etc., a desktop widget to let you listen to music outside of your Firefox browser, and a podcast preview to find music that you’d like to subscribe to. There’s also an info box for your dashboard to offer more data on songs, album art, recent history and more. There is not yet a Mac version. FoxyTunes’ last announcement was a Twitter inclusion to its service.

Kijiji.com : a Craigslist Rival.

eBay’s International classifieds site Kijiji has just been launched in the United States.

Founded and launched in 2005, Kijiji was not available in the US until now. The classifieds site was spread across several countries in Europe and Asia, and was also released in Canada, gaining its user base. Kijiji is free, though the company may offer premium seller options in the future. Given the success of eBay, there are certainly a lot of ways in which a classifieds site could be monetized once Kijiji gains traction. Simplistic in design, Kijiji has a few hints of eBay functionality, including the ability to “watch” an item, email it to a friend, and view other classifieds listings from that user. Other helpful tools include the ability to email the classifieds user directly from their listings pages, and subscribe to specific feeds based on the numerous categories Kijiji offers.

The site is a competitor to Craigslist, though eBay owns a large percent stake (25%) in the company. eBay must have some unseen plans with its growing list of subsidiary classifieds sites, as it owns several others that exist Internationally as well, some of which will be entering the US market in the future. In other eBay news, the company’s PayPal is in continued talks with MySpace for the provision of an e-commerce solution that’s in direct competition with Google Checkout.



TripUp connects people through a social network with a travel twist.


TripUp is an interactive travel community that connects people from all over the world through a social network with a travel twist.

The idea for TripUp originated with a group of friends vacationing in the Caribbean who became frustrated when out-of-date and out-of-touch guide books led them to deserted clubs, stuffy hotels, and horrible restaurants. Sitting in an empty bar (described in one guide book as "the place to party"), they imagined a website where you could ask locals and fellow travelers (the real travel experts) for candid advice about your upcoming trip, and also meet cool people to hang out with or even travel with while away.

Upon their return, they developed TripUp to improve their future trips, as well as everyone else's. Additionally, they added a bunch of exciting features so you can plan and share your fantastic travels with your friends.
