MySpace Australian launches – find filter and forward music, a front end on to iTunes and stuff. But given that Apple iTunes already has an affiliate membership program – members benefit from helping to sell music – one wonders why MySpace isn’t offering the a similar deal to MySpacers who help sell music from their MySpace pages… ?

Journalists are starting to receive grants to learn social media technologies like SEO. Should we hold a Media and Career Expo where bloggers donate knowledge and expertise to help Journalists adjust?

If journalist pillage social media for stories, they may find themselves on the receiving end of vicious campaigns by social networks. Eg Alice Hoffman vs Boston Glove Reviewer on Twitter. Those that live by the sword…

Gary Hayes put this video together for the attendees of the public “How to make Machinima course” he ran at AFTRS the other day. My character from World of Warcraft got roped in to voice the silly jokes. She’s now on the hunt for an avatar management agency. Heh. Some of the machinima we watch at home is as long as a movie – and rife with ‘in world, in jokes’ that have me giggling on the floor but no-one else would probably understand. Our video has probably managed to offend the online communities around every single game mentioned. Ah well, they’ll Continue Reading…

Natalie Imbruglia (@natimbruglia) responding to a fan on Twitter. While a number of stars are still using Twitter for broadcast (get an intern to tweet 140 char press releases linking to full press release) more and more are using the online community Twitter in a social way. I blogged about the stoush between Perez Hilton and Ashton Kutcher where Ashton told Perez that basically he was just miffed because the blogger was being disintermediated – why do fans need people to blog/New Idea about celebrities when the celebs will tell us themselves through their own channel? When it’s not Natalie, Continue Reading…

The London Standard today told readers “Sorry For Losing Touch”. There are 5 stages to the loss, grief, death cycle according to Kubler-Ross: Denial: Denial is usually only a temporary defense for the individual. This feeling is generally replaced with heightened awareness of situations and individuals that will be left behind after death. Example – “I feel fine.”; “This can’t be happening, not to me.” Anger: Once in the second stage, the individual recognizes that denial cannot continue. Because of anger, the person is very difficult to care for due to misplaced feelings of rage and envy. Any individual that Continue Reading…

ADAGE introduces a “breakthrough in interactive features”. WARNING: Troll posting ahead. A KEYSTROKE of GENIUS for International Readers?

I’m always interested in Film and TV – and we had an interesting discussion the other night on the social network, Twitter about EPG (Electronic Program Guide). The sheer – and there’s no other word for it but ‘hatred‘ – people have for EPG abuses by TV stations was obvious. It seems that ALL the stations abuse and disrespect their viewers by running up to 20 mins early or late for their shows. But have a look at this satirical video of Freeview: Freeview TV had YouTube pull the video which causes a furore – exclusive by Patrick Avenell of Continue Reading…
