Bringing this over from yesterdays thread about Adam checking out event space at MOCA in L.A.: seashell: My first thought was that maybe he's planning a homecoming party for Sauli! ;D  I have to admit, that was the first thought that came to mind. SInce Sauli announced that "he would be coming home" in a month. Damn, I wish I lived somewhere near Hollywood. THere always seems exciting events going on. I must live in 'dullsville" cause the only thing we talk about is the pain in the ass mosiqitoes eating us alive at night. |

I went to read this article..and the one above this post from the Sun, and it is getting increasingly difficult to read things online now without giving the media almost unlimited access to your twitter or facebook. In order to comment on this iphone article you had to give them full access to twitter...including your direct messages!! [dm's just till June 30]...to me, that is astounding. Needless to say, there are not many messages in that comment section. Re stopping filming at concerts...imagine if we had not had those concert vids of Suz526 to wait anxiously for.....hovering around youtube waiting to bring them over. I rather doubt this app will be applied and if it is iphones will be available second hand, in masses. There are too many other ways to use or adapt or control an app like this for it to ever see the light of day....hopefully. I will post this in the social comments thread as well in case that is where people would prefer it. I know it is somewhat OT yet not as 1. we did this a lot and will again at Adam's concert. 2. An app. like this could impact the whole fandom and ultimately take the concert business back to the 'old days' were it to work....which I highly, highly doubt. Seriously, do the music execs actually think the GNT would have been as successful as it was without those youtube vids? ITA, mzsue!!! I believe YouTube has been an invaluable resource for promoting Adam's brand. The equivalent to millions of dollars of advertising and airtime for FREE!! We wouldn't even know who Justin Bieber was without YouTube, I don't think his people begrudge it a bit. I thought when Prince started pulling his down it was extremely short-sighted. People know the freaking difference between a YouTube and a live event. Live sports hasn't stopped drawing audiences just because they've been on TV for how many years? It's a completely different experience. And when you can market to people in Russia who might have otherwise never heard of you (or only briefly with tons of other MTV artists) until those fans are begging for you to appear live, that's HUGE. I venture to say GNT wouldn't have been the huge success it was without networks of fans taking, sharing, circulating the videos. This is all word of mouth and didn't cost Adam a penny. I'm so glad he has the good sense to recognize it's value and not waste his time and energy fighting it. "Take my picture, bitch!" ~AFL (lol!) And I'm totally an iPhone/Mac whore and I call BS on that "we're protecting the promoters" crap. ETA: I think if he's going to throw a welcome home party for Sauli, he'd just do it at his house. |
