Up until now, discovering new music online has been mostly either a social experience through services like iLike and Last.fm, or a function of the wisdom of the crowd determining “most popular tracks” on big music stores like iTunes and Amazon. Today, a new entrant into the space called Mufin adds a twist: recommending songs based completely on their sound. Utilizing technology developed in part by the same folks who created the MP3 format, Mufin ...

Paying bills collectively with friends is common, but keeping track of such matters, particularly for recurring charges or moments of extensive cost write-ups (vacations, for example), can be a taxing process in and of itself.
