TWITTER is cool, but if you like listening to music while you surf and micro-blog, you might want to check out Blip.
I previously blogged about Blip, which allows you to let people know what you’re listening to and share the music with them by embedding an MP3 in your Blip update.

Our reporter Alex Villafania took a video of Fosberg showing off the 45 nanomenter wafer, and I’ll post it here as soon as it becomes available on iVDO on Yahoo!

Here’s an excerpt from the Red Herring article:
