Why is that a surprise he wants to reach a wider fanbase lol. Whole point is expanding his fanbase. His core fans like on this site are great. But he needs to expand and reach more casual fans. And different types of fans. To make this era mega successfull. But thats just me.

Hmm.......does anybody know much about this?
Meerkat Madness: The Lure of the App Du Jour
Meerkat App

First impressions of a Twitter-based sensation

Meerkat feels like a gamechanger. But what is the game and how is it changing?
Ever since this heavily hyped app began to delight early adopters in recent days with a seamless ability to live-stream video on Twitter, it’s left the bewildering but intoxicating sense that something significant is happening. But what Meerkat will be exactly is elusive, perhaps even to the Israel-based tech firm, Life on Air, that created it.
The simplicity of its functionality is one of its virtues: You can either capture video from your smartphone and notify your Twitter followers that they can stream the footage in real time, or watch someone else do same while interacting on screen via typed messages.
The intimacy and immediacy of this kind of one-to-many communication contains too much promise for innovators of all stripes to ignore. Count on a fascinating explosion of experimentation on this app in the coming weeks that will surely include media and marketing brands.
However, that will be a shame of sorts. Right now Meerkat is virgin territory unspoilt by inevitable commercial exploitation. It’s a magical place filled with the stumbling trial and error of geeks collectively discovering its ins and outs, ups and downs.
Of course, let’s not oversell this moment either. Clicking on a notification for a livestream at any random moment nowadays isn’t going to give you a guaranteed front seat to some brilliantly innovative telecast seemingly beamed from the distant future–far from it. What’s really going on right now is that more often than not you’re going to encounter someone you follow on Twitter fumbling around with the app just long enough until they quickly shut it off when they realize someone is watching their awkward first steps.
But it’s hard not to feel like we may be in the period before that ferment of experimentation starts bubbling. Just imagine the kind of unconventional storytelling to be done. Or how public figures could interact with their fans in a personalized way. Think of how this could work in the news business, where the kind of unmediated eyewitness reporting that’s already been streaming out of newsworthy locales like Ferguson, Miss., can find a new home. Maybe this will be a place for new talent to emerge or old talent to resurrect themselves in a vehicle quite different than the micro-burst world of Vine/Instagram/Snapchat.
Of course, in these early days this kind of innovation is in short supply on Meerkat. Here’s a suggestion: Try going beyond the boundaries of your own Twitter feed and randomly search the Meerkat hashtag. With enough patience, you will be rewarded.

I think the poster was just questioning if Adam had actually said that at the sight but found the quote was there later. I think they are happy with the expanding of the fan base but just didn't remember the quote. |

Your soul is:
French
You are an honest, loving, and remarkably loyal soul. You show your love and affection with your actions and the way you live -- not just with your words. The friendships you create are full of everlasting love and can never be cut apart. The experiences you've had and the memories you've created with your loved ones can never be forgotten. Your friends feel lucky to have you!
French? I've spent some time in France -- had to masquerade as a Canadian to get treated with a bit more respect -- it was a different time.
And, may I just say, THAT PHOTO!!!!!! YOWZER!!!!!!
Do you think it's his home gym? |

Oh! And any artist can have an iHeart deal. Doesn't have to be the new artist one. Madonna had one for last album & I believe Swift did too. I am betting on an iHEART deal for Adam's first single too! I was just in my car and had the Radio on NYC's Z100 and IHeart was doing an Album Release party on the air for Kelly Clarkson. They would talk to her and then play a song...talk some more, play another song. I could hear some fans in the background Thought for a minute she was singing live, but they were just playing her songs. Had to turn it off after 3 songs...wonder if they played the whole album. Guess I'm gonna have to get more familiar with what all goes on on radio, in addition to all the streaming sites. PattiHum.....Do you think they might do this for Adam's album this summer? And if they do, I hope they do it in Burbank and you are one of the screaming fans in the background...or would they do it elsewhere? I'm hoping Adam does lots of different things IHeart related. Coo.coo.ca.choo........Yes, looks like Adam's basement gym area. Also in the 2 previous workout pics as well. The former owners had a small gym set up across from the double glass door entry to the basement...between the bathroom and the media room. I'm guessing Adam may be using that area to workout as well. IMO. |

It was on line, just like QAL was from Burbank, last June. Yes, I think Adam might do an iHeart release party for the album too! The recent pics are too close to tell where it is, i think. But the 2 previous ones, of chestbert definitely are not from his home. They are from the gym that Seth uses. Here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yo81Ry7uEnE |
