CleanTab launches version 2 - Guitar & Bass Tabs in HTML5

This is pretty cool, but there's at least one piece of data you're throwing out from your scraped pages.<p>Compare The White Stripes' "Offend in Every Way" tab on your site (<a href="http://cleantab.com/offend-in-every-way-guitar-tab/white-stripes/v1" rel="nofollow">http://cleantab.com/offend-in-every-way-guitar-tab/white-str...</a>) and the scraped site (<a href="http://www.xguitar.com/guitar-tabs/white_stripes/white_blood_cells/offend_in_every_way.txt" rel="nofollow">http://www.xguitar.com/guitar-tabs/white_stripes/white_blood...</a>). xguitar is telling you where the chord changes happen by placing the chord name over the lyrics (e.g., on the first line, you play a G when singing "plan").<p>Also, on your blog pages, the top header links to <a href="http://blog.cleantab.com/blog/" rel="nofollow">http://blog.cleantab.com/blog/</a> , which is a 404. You want to link to <a href="http://blog.cleantab.com/" rel="nofollow">http://blog.cleantab.com/</a> .

Really great site. Tab sites for been terrible for too long. This is a refreshing change from the popups, popovers, and audio ads that plague the existing tab/chord sites.

Kudos. The presentation is pretty good. I've had a similar idea rattling around in my head for a few years, but haven't had the time to build it... There's a major problem with all these sites that has yet to be solved. What that is is left as an exercise for the reader. :)

Great site, I'll be using this from now on! How do you plan to make money? Affiliate links? Membership fee? Ads?

Out of curiosity, where did you get the tablature data from? Scraping existing sites?

Yes, the tablature data is scraped from existing sites. There is a credit to the original page on the top right of every tab.
