2_BP4_SoundCloud




“Sound Cloud is a platform that puts your sound at the heart of communities, websites and even apps. Watch conversations, connections and social experiences happen, with your sound as the spark.” Sound Cloud is a great web 2.0 tool for sharing and promoting your music to others. With Sound Cloud you can upload your music to their site as well as pictures to the uploaded audio. People will have the ability to go to your Sound Cloud page and leave comments on your page about your music. Another nice feature Sound Cloud offers is the ability to record live directly into this web tool. Sound Cloud has applications available with all “major” phone companies such as AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile. It’s also available on iTunes and Android networks. With this application you can record live through your phone and to the site in real time. For example, if you’re doing a live interview and you want to record and post it to your blog; you would be able to accomplish this with your phone by using the Sound Cloud app. You also have the ability to post your work to Facebook, Twitter, Sound Cloud Blog, Tmblr, a developer’s blog, and MySpace. Sound Cloud even has a Facebook player, which allows the user to blog their work easier and faster. In my opinion, Sound Cloud is a great tool to have in your toolbox. Grouping this tool with other tools such as UJAM will really help the user get their sound heard.
