MuxFind: Music search engine for Muxtape
Muxtape is a great site for creating web-based "mix tapes" which you can share with your friends. Just upload a few songs, put them in order, and send the link to your friends, family members, and enemies. Anyone can listen to your songs, but there's no (easy) way to download the music. There's just one problem: There's no way to search Muxtapes, which seriously limits the site's utility.
Enter MuxFind, a search engine for Muxtape. Just enter an artist, song title, or Muxtape user name and MuxFind will direct you to any pages that match your query. Muxfind is a great way to find not just individual songs, but other music you might like. After all, if you're a big Poi Dog Pondering fan, there's a good chance other users who uploaded Poi Dog music will have other songs you might like.
Update: The site has been updated since this post was written so that you can now only search by Muxtape, not by song or artist. This makes both Muxfind and Muxtape a whole lot less useful as far as we're concerned. But the change might (or might not) help keep the sites lawsuit free (for now).

doesn't work for finding songs, only mix names, which is completely useless.
creator of the site must have gotten a cease and desist letter or something.
too bad, it woulda been way cool.

Poi Dog Pondering? -Are you kidding me with this? Now I feel old as dirt.
