What a coincidence– we hate that too! So, to that end we thought of a way we wouldn’t forget! Think of this as a mobile string tied around your finger, except this won’t cut off your circulation, and or lead to gang green! Got a test tomorrow? Battery on your tootbrush go kaput? Need to feed Fido or Frisky? Whatever it is you need to do, we’ve got the reminder wallpaper for you! Check ‘em all out right here!

Of course it goes without saying that we love receiving gifts and accolades alike (they look great on our e-mantle), but our true joy still remains in giving gifts– and allowing our users the ability to gift themselves and others! Check some of the super-nice things they had to say about us!

“Whilst there are quite a few similar sites Myxer has really taken things to the next level in terms of its technology platform.  It’s created myxer tags and myxer codes to let users embed their content on social networks like myspace and on blogs and so on using HTML and flash-based widgets and badges.  They have also managed to get SMS triggers working across all the major US networks to let you push content to your phone from the web.   In fact, Myxer is now the fourth largest source of SMS in the US after American Idol, Google and American Greetings.”

Wow, we’re honored! The hits really do keep on coming! So, don’t forget to keep checkin’ back daily for all kinds of sweet gifts for you and yours leading up to the holidays!

I’m Allison and I’ll be guest blogging tonight. It seems that Marsha and George (or “Geo” as I believe he is listed in the contributors section) may still be recouperating from their whirlwind trip to Toronto. Sounds like they had a good time.

As I write this, I am listening to the The Groove Bros song “Last Dance”; however, it is making me type to the rhythm so it’s a bit unnerving.

I’m going to get to the other links in Marsha’s post (below) in the next day or so. I’m always looking for new music to listen to and new ringtones for my phone:

WHAT AM I LISTENING TO?

Right now, in addition to a bunch of non-musical podcasts, I am listening to Editors. My two favorites are Munich and Blood.

I also have a fondness for Supreme Beings of Leisure. I picked up the song, Under the Gun, a while back and love their sound.

While I like the bands, I bought the songs and made ringtones myself using Myxertones - that way, I can edit them as I like.

Sort of like my grandmother always used to say, “why buy the ringtone when you can buy the mp3 and use myxertones and get the ringtone free?” Ok, honestly, there is no way my grandmother could construct a sentence like that - but you get the idea.

WHAT IS MY CURRENT RINGTONE?

Like everyone, I have different ringtones for different people. But my general ringtone is the Yeah Yeah Yeah Song by The Flaming Lips. It’s peppy and definitely relevant.

Well, enough from me. If Myk says so - I’ll be back.

I learned a lot about what it takes to make it in the music industry and I really respect all of the bands working hard out there to make their music and get noticed. One of the benefits of attending the conference is seeing the bands perform. I popped into a few bars for just a few minutes, but these are the guys I really got time to see and hear. All great shows. I only wish I had more time and that the bars were closer together so I could have seen more.

Thursday, 6/8
Jerry Leger and the Situations @ The Black Bull - Good music. Nice guys.
Mark Berube @ Healey’s - Fun band. You’ve got to love a guy who plays the accordion.
Epileptic Hero @ The Cameron - Great Guys. (Nice cover while Seth fixed his guitar strap.)
The Mercury Seed @ The Black Bull - Got there late. Wish I could have seen more.

Friday, 6/9
The Groove Bros @ The Richmond Lounge - Great Energy. Couldn’t help from dancing.
Peachcake @ The Bagel - Wild Show! Thanks for the free pirate eye patch.

Shows I really wish I would have seen (oh well, maybe next year):
Rhythmicru
The Deadbeats
The Hemingway Solution
The Spectaculars
And many others

Check out these bands and other bands that performed at NxNE . Some already have MyxerTags available. Hopefully the others will have them available soon. If you like their stuff, but don’t see any ringtones ask them to make their music into ringtones using MyxerTags.
