    Multi-Base - A new way to harness information

    Posted project update #1

    User Interface Preview

    Here's the most recent design update for Mira's interface. This should give you a pretty good idea of what we're talking about. You have the different feeds for different categories side-by-side with each other, pulling content from all of your favorite websites and using your trusted friends to also help filter content. With Auto-Play, you'll be able to merge any of these feeds and play them in the content viewer above, without ever leaving the interface. Mira will support all kinds of content, from music and videos, to blogs and retail stores.

    It's designed to be a much easier and more enjoyable browsing experience, while also utilizing your friends to help you filter through to the content that matters. We feel this will have some big impacts on how information is distributed, and also obviously on promotion and marketing. 

    This is a condensed version that could be used on Facebook or on an iPad. Next we will be working on a full screen version for the desktop, and also mobile phone version. It won't actually be this tall of an app. The feeds will actually be scrollable within a smaller window, but this functionality was impossible to show on Photoshop. Should get the idea though! Let us know what you think! We're excited to get started!!

    This is a really great idea. My model, Beat-Play uses a social network to allow friends to share the music they like. You follow someone who you share a taste in a music with, and anything they like enough to save to their own playlist, automatically gets sent to your radio. If you like it, and playlist it, it gets sent to anyone following you. It's a free way of distribution and promotion, and it can actually make piracy irrelevant. Artists can give their music away for free, because if they are good, they will spread with our model, then we can give them large percentages of ad revenue based on popularity. That way the most popular artist's music can be shared as much as the fans want, and the artists can track it all, and get paid from it. It is going to be revolutionary. We are just entering internal beta stages now. We would ALWAYS be open to working with projects like this. We could use some extra developer dollars right now. Anyway, I hope you read more about us, and at least consider us. We have designed our model to have the best chance for success, because we put the users, and the music, first. I love what you're doing. More info: http://beatplay.wordpress.com http://MusicWithoutLabels.com
