Muzeit- A New Way For Sharing Ideas

4 thoughts on “Muzeit- A New Way For Sharing Ideas”

1. Visit https://www.muzeit.net Spend no more than 5-10 seconds on the home page. What do you think the site is about?

   I like how straightforward the page is.  I gather that I will be able to find lyrics to a song and cut & paste them to my facebook status or share some uplifting words to friends.  

   Visit https://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=185985324746977. Do you think it is better in facebook?

   I don’t think it is better in facebook.  I like the straightforwardness of the first web page.  However, if I wanted the social interaction, then I would prefer the facebook application.  I personally am at a stage in my life where I don’t have a lot of time to socialize with strangers on facebook.  I check on my friends, then logout.  But I do love music, and 5 years ago I would have enjoyed the interaction on the facebook page.

   Now go back to the site and comment on various elements of the site.  What do you find bothersome? What do you like?

   I typed in one of my favorite artists and when the result page came up I liked how there where pop up boxes with points and tips.  I usually hate those windows because I am required to click the “x” to get rid of them.  Thank you for having them disappear after a few seconds.  I started playing a song, then decided to look up a different artist.  When the results came up for that artist, the song of the previous artist kept playing.  I really like that feature.  Since it is music I love, I don’t want it to stop!  
   I didn’t like the “ads by google” box that popped up when the song started.
   I cut a portion of a song.  It was easy to do with the time markers to help me know when I would want it to start and stop.  I didn’t notice at first that the window that popped up to share had three tabs at the top.  I just happened to want to share on facebook, and since that was the tab that it opened on it was fast and convenient.  
   I then sent it to myself by email, and that was easy and quick.

   How do you think the site compares to just sharing youtube songs?

   This website is good in that you can just send a small clip of the song.  However, sometimes you want to send the whole song.  So depending on the situation, I think it compares nicely.  

   Please share any additional feedback/comments you might have.

   Once I started searching, I couldn’t stop.  I love music and it was fun to search specifically on what I liked, and also the keywords on the left.  Under some categories I expected to see more songs listed, but it did help me get ideas on what to send for certain reasons.

   I thought the site was very plain, yet easy to browse.  The category list should of been on the side or broken into sub categoies.  The search bar at the top was very easy to use though.

   Visit https://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=185985324746977. Do you think it is better in facebook?
   No difference in facebook.  It shows the same thing, although it could be useful on facebook as it’s right there as an app.  I would definitely use it.

   The site is quite plain and boring.  Considering it is a music website, I would like to see more colors and adding photos of musicians would be good too.  Perhaps, the top musicians in today’s history.

   What do you find bothersome? What do you like?
   Bothered by how boring the “main” page is.  I like the facebook app.  It is pretty easy to use and definitely easy to use the “share” tab.  I like how you can even log into your facebook directly from the muzeit.net website.

   How do you think the site compares to just sharing youtube songs?
   I am not to sure yet.  I don’t really use YouTube much… but since this is a “music” website, I know youtube is more than just music. 

   Please share any additional feedback/comments you might have.
   I would suggest a lot of work done to the website.  Although I do find it useful, I still think the website needs a lot of work to be done.

3. Visit https://www.muzeit.net Spend no more than 5-10 seconds on the home page. What do you think the site is about?

   The site contains youtube videos which are divided in many categories. It was very easy to pick up a category and play a song. The website has a friendly interface. Also, the user can make his own muse.

   Visit https://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=185985324746977. Do you think it is better in facebook?

   I think it is the same thing. No essential differences. In facebook it is more useful if you want to share a muze video with someone from your list.

   Now go back to the site and comment on various elements of the site.

   The menu with the categories is easy to navigate. The colors of the website fit very good. The search toolbox works fine. The tool to cut the favorite part from favorite song is also very easy to use.

   What do you find bothersome? What do you like?

   I noticed  that the window that popped up to share had three tabs at the top (facebook, twitter, email). I like that you can easily access the facebook account from the website. And it is very useful that there are tooltips for each item on the page where you play the video.
   I think for design, the alignment on the first page should be centered.

   How do you think the site compares to just sharing youtube songs?

   The most useful things are:
   -you can send a small part of a song
   -you can share easier a part of the song or the entire song with friends from facebook or twitter than you do directly from youtube

   Please share any additional feedback/comments you might have.
   

   When you click a category, more songs should be available without using the search box.
   There should be a form on the website where the user can leave the email address and subscribe to a newsletter to receive more information about muzeit.

   -well i think its about cutting your favorite part of the song, not unlike quoting the song’s lyrics like most people do on most social networking sites “to express their feelings” you actually cut out a part of the song and let people actually hear it.
   Visit https://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=185985324746977. Do you think it is better in facebook?
   – no probably not better than facebook but music lovers will definitely love this

   – its a bit confusing. it should be more welcoming and simpler. if i see alot of things i dont really get i pres the x button.

   What do you find bothersome? What do you like?
   its confusing at first i stared a few min after i clicked “start here” after a while i got the hang of it.
   How do you think the site compares to just sharing youtube songs?
   you can just cut a part of the song and share it.

   keep it simple,  the black theme is off putting.
