Music Search (Digiyak 4 Preview)

I’ve been too busy this week to write much here, especially since I’ve been working hard on my next Digital Kayak article. But I thought I’d give you a little sneak peek at something I created to help illustrate a point:

But there are still some easy ways to find free music online. One is to use Google as described on tech-recipes. Because those instructions might be a little confusing to some, I whipped up a simple page to do it easier.

Here’s how it works: a lot of people leave online files lying around where Google can index them, including music files. By asking Google the right questions, you can find these online stashes.

You’ll find that the vast majority of results are inaccessible, others are fake, but a few are the real deal.

If you click through to the music search page you’ll notice that I have listed five sites so far that have downloadable MP3s. Those are what real pages look like.

If you find more that work, post the site address in the comments and I will add it to the music search page.
