A Plug for alonetone

by guest blogger Corey Dargel

I'm very impressed with alonetone, a website/community forum created by the musician/writer/programmer Sudara (pictured) from Innsbruck, Austria.  Anyone can sign up to upload and share his or her original music.  I won't go into details here; you should just check out the site.  It is very well done and provides lots of options for sharing your work, and with none of the unsolicited promises to make you famous, fishing by (disreputable) booking agents, etc., that MySpace, Facebook, and other, more commercially-oriented profile-sites seem to attract.

One of the highlights of alonetone is that, after you create a profile and upload at least one mp3 of your music, you can very easily set up a podcast feed that shows up when people search for your name in the iTunes store.  For those who subscribe to your podcast, a new episode will show up every time you upload an mp3 to alonetone.  If you want to see what that looks like, you can search in the iTunes music store for my name.
