MusTech.Net!

C-MuSE is a Custom Music Education Search Engine utilizing the Google search indexes and is another beta “lab” project by myself.  Currently I’m indexing every Music Education Blogger Site in this highly customized Google search engine in an attempt to cut through the “junk” when indexing sites that contain information that I want to report vs. information that I don’t want or find confusing.  This custom search is another way to return a better percentage of focused results about a particular subject when they are returned to the user after inputting the search query.

I can easily see this turning into a self-hosted site and it may in the future.  I plan to add about 150 useful music education related sites to this index in the near future.  As a related music technology project, I am going to have my college music undergraduates begin to compile a list of very useful, related, and current music education sites as candidates for inclusion with this list in the future.

I’ve also toyed with Rollyo a number of years ago and posted my thoughts about it on MusTech.net and you may find that articles in the archives if you’re interested…it’s another great custom search platform.

Please note until this update is installed on MusTech.Net there will be some problems when vieiwing our podcast pages and posts.

I’m already getting in gear for band camp.  We start on August 14th.  It’s going to be a great year… I know this already because we’re taking the marching band and the jazz ensemble to Disney World!   The kids are pretty excited about it…  

It’s also time to think about re-tooling your blog and getting some of your ideas up.  Why not jump start your blog with a couple of posts before you head back to school to get into the “swing of things” AND submit one to the Music Education Blog Carnival!  The August blog carnival is almost ready to be posted and you still have a few days to get your submissions into me and Joel…so take advantage of them! 

Submit your Music Education Blog Carnival entry to:

Here’s the link for your blog post submittal for the carnival:
http://blogcarnival.com/bc/submit_4443.html

I don’t have complete access to the back-end at the blog carnival site and will be working with Joel to see if we can have the site give more feedback to you when you submit your entries.  All entries will be considered and most will be posted provided they meet the music education topic criteria for the carnival. Stay Tuned!
