You may have been wondering what this post is all about. Well it is an embedded object from radio.blog.club. Radio Blog contains a huge amounts of music links that can be listened to in their own webpage, but you may also want to embed it as an object into your own webpage. The disclaimer states that "Radio.blog is a free software exclusively designed to offer a promoting tool to musical artists and/or any member of the music and entertainment community". One can create track lists. Radio Blog can be compared to You Tube in the sense that all liability is for the user: Any individual, group or company using Radio.blog for the purpose of transmiting, distributing, storing any musical content represents and warrants to Mubility that, among other things, they have the rights, licenses, clearances and/or permissions necessary to do so, that the titles, lyrics, music, artist names and marks under which the Content is promoted do not infringe any third party's copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property rights and that all Content available for use through Radio.blog do not infringe privacy or moral rights, neither is defamatory, obscene, threatening, abusive, or hostile. The owners of Radio Blog explicitly state that they typically do not own musical compositions, musical recordings, artwork or visual images of third parties that are available through Radio.blog. For the end user it is an interesting site, if you happen to have that title or artist's name, you get a big chance that you can actually hear the song. Although looking for some older songs, you might get disappointed. Try for example "The Way we Were" from Barbra Streisand. I couldn't find it. Justing searching on the songs name gets me 1132 hits, a bit too much at this time of the day. A little bit odd is that you have to click twice on the embedded object before the song starts playing. I like the small size of the embedde object and you can also make some colour changes so it fits better within the design of your web page. In general the quality of the sound is rather good. An interesting idea is that you can create your own playlists just by creating a list of embedded objects. That's great, but of course when one of the objects is removed from radio blog (for whatever reason), your object won't work anymore.
