I’ve been fighting this, but maybe it’s time to admit it: the Internet is my life. I’d like to think otherwise, but I think I’d only be fooling myself.

I often get lost for hours. Sometimes I look up, wondering where the time went, wondering what I accomplished or what I did, saw or read that I will actually remember in the morning. Sometimes I find wonderful things.

Muxtape is one of those wonderful things.

A music-sharing web application launched this week by Justin Ouellette, Muxtape brings the focus back to playlists, back to showcasing the skill it takes to make a good mixtape. Refreshingly simple, clean and focused, Muxtape is a great way to browse music. It’s gotten a lot of rave reviews from a lot of early adopters, and I can’t agree more.

I was asked last weekend how I listen to music, and I find that I live off Internet radio. Pandora is always open in my browser and playing non-stop when I’m at home. SomaFM operates some really great Internet radio stations, NPR has some great recorded concerts in its archives (as well as All Things Considered, a personal fav), and even YouTube works pretty well for a one song fix.

Muxtape is the newest addition to the list. The application just launched, but there are already some very cool mixes… rest assured I’ll be browsing for more…
