- Play a track for someone while you're IMing?
- DJ a private radio station with your friends?
- Find a way to "be together" with someone, even if you're working away in different places?
Us too. That's why we built MixApp.
MixApp lets you and your friends listen to music together in a chat room, where everyone hears the same thing at the same time. It’s like hanging out in your dorm lounge or living room with your friends and playing music for each other -- except that with MixApp you can be with your friends all day, no matter where you are.
Here's how:
1. Go to http://mixapp.com and log in with Facebook. You'll see the rooms where your Facebook friends are listening, and you can jump right in. Or create a new room and get your friends to join in.
2. Each room has a shared playlist -- you can add MP3s from your computer, or from your friends' collections (if they're making them available to you.)
3. Here's the key: everyone listening hears the same thing at the same time.
Most people ask: "Wait, so anyone can add to the playlist, rearrange or delete tracks?" Yup! And no, this doesn't lead to anarchy -- when you're listening with your friends, there's social pressure not to ruin the experience for everyone else. (And besides, everyone can just go to a different room if someone decides to be difficult.)
There's something special about hearing the same thing at the same time -- so give MixApp a try, bring your friends, stop listening alone, and start listening together.
