Project 3–Humble Beginnings

After the mad rush that was signing up for project 3, I have ended up with Clyp.it, a bare-bones audio recording/sharing website. As a music technology minor and all-around audio aficionado, I think I will be able to dive into the minutiae of the interface better than the typical person; with my background in music, hopefully I will have a slightly more critical eye (and ear) and will be looking for things that other people might not.

I send music files fairly regularly, so seeing an interface devoted to this definitely caught my attention. Upon further investigation, it seemed that this interface catered to a more casual crowd (those more interested in sending quick sounds than high quality music), but even still, I wanted investigate its overall usefulness, not just how it might apply to me.
