Social Networks You Can Use To Promote Your Music

So hopefully you’ve got your MySpace and Facebook profiles up, and have heard of Pure Volume and Reverb Nation. We figured we’d discuss some other networks and some of the features that make them a little different.

Don’t Forget To Join Evolvor @ Ning!

I set up an account with Ning a few months ago, but never really paid to much attention to it. Over the weekend, two bands (one of which I personally know) and I started playing around with it again.

Get Ready To Pownce

pownce.pngPownce is a new social media application/service that lets you create a network of friends that you can easily share files with. Say you, I don’t know, had an audio file of some new band and had a bunch of friends on Pownce, and wanted to get that file to everyone at once? That’s where the power to Pownce comes in! Or so it seems from visiting their site very briefly.

Join Me @ Linked-In

MySpace Reveals New Profile Editor

myspace.pngOkay all you MySpace addicts (you know who you are), it’s time to put that stupid ass profile theme you have in it’s grave now that MySpace has announced it’s new Profile Editor (in Beta).

The Downside Of Social Generated Media

It’s been about a month since my silly Top 10 Forgotten 90’s Rock Band post, but I’m still getting lots of search engine traffic and probably will ’till the end of time. With this traffic I have received hundreds of comments; some are happy “thank yous” and others are downright stupid (”these bands suck”).

Incorporating Social Networking Software Into Your Web Plan

I read a lot of predictions by many in the blog world about how social media & networking is going to get even bigger in 2007. They’re right, and I’d like to drop a huge ball as to how this is all going to play out. You see, the web is all about the niche, the long tail, or whatever the hell you want to call it. While millions do flock to the MySpaces and the Facebooks, they do so only because they’re the first of its kind (and by that I mean the first of it’s kind to make it really big). What happens next is going to be huge for the sites that jump on the ball first.

Get Free Advertising On Popular Blogs With MyBlogLog

Most of us know about MyBlogLog, a kind of MySpace meets bloggers service that connects the blogging world together. One of the cool things about MyBlogLog is the reader widget you can add to your blog. Whenever someone comes to your site (either through MyBlogLog or while “logged in” to the service ), their picture/avatar will be featured along with their name or brand/nickname. Now, if your a smart kat like myself, your name/nickname is also your brand/company/url name. What does all this mean? Free advertising!

My Blog Log Privacy Bullshit

So I just read a little post about some privacy issues regarding MyBlogLog. Now the funny thing is all day long I’ve been thinking about how huge MyBlogLog really is. It became apparent to me that in reality MyBlogLOg could be really huge as more and more people learn how to set up their own blogs.

Five Things You Don’t Know About Eric Hebert

1. Growing up I was known as Eric He-Bert just like it looks (or more often mis-pronounced as HER-Bert). At 18 I decided from there on be known as Eric “A-BEAR”, as my name is supposed to be pronounced (the H is silent). Yeah, I’m proud.
