"Many people let others know on Twitter what they're listening to as they work through their day, but what if you could also include the actual MP3 for people to join in and listen along?\nThis is the idea behind Blip, a new service from Fuzz. that allows you to microblog ala Twitter, but with the added feature of using an MP3 search to embed the song you are currently listening to into the post so that others can check it out.  Unlike SeeqPod, which has run afoul of legal questions, Blip is \"legal and it's covered by the DMCA,\" according to Fuzz CEO, Jeff Yasuda.\nOne of the most amazing things about Blip is they have done something that everyone has cried out for Twitter to do: a self-refreshing feed page!  What a novel concept!  It's true, the page updates itself without hitting refresh... it's obviously demonic magic.\nWe sat down with Gavin Hayes, lead singer of Dredg, to get his thoughts on what Blip brings to the music industry, as well as what he, as a musician, would like to see change in the dynamics of the industry.  I have to say I was quite intrigued by his thoughts on pre-sales of albums, and how that might be a way to bring the artist and fans closer together.\nYou can download the MP3 file directly here.\nNever miss an episode with these links: Get the Mashable Conversations podcast here.
