I was excited to see the creation of the Metabrainz Foundation recently. A few years ago I spent a bit of time examining the MusicBrainz project while investigating semantic technologies (MusicBrainz utilizes RDF for its Web Services).

MusicBrainz is a community music metadatabase that attempts to create a comprehensive music information site.

Similar to Wikipedia, MusicBrainz is built by its legion of users. An important and open project – MusicBrainz is a foundation for building new music related applications.

Their board of directors consists of some people I’ve worked with in past and others that I read everyday. I’d urge you to donate a little something, just as I did yesterday.
