Episode #27 - Twitter for Music Marketing?
DOWNLOAD THE SHOW (9 Mb MP3 file)
Twitter has been variously described as "micro blogging" and "asynchronous chat". My friend Mitch Joel even coined the term "permission based stalking" which sounds a little creepy to me, but it kind of gets the point across.
Since Twitter is a completely text-based tool that is limited to 140 characters per entry, you'd think it wouldn't be very useful as a music promotion tool, right? Well I've got some ideas about that...

Two VERY different interviews with me
By pure coincidence, two quite different interviews with yours truly were posted on popular blogs today.
The first was by Network2.tv founder Jeff Pulver. Jeff and I hung out a bit last week during Canadian Music Week, and he asked me about my entry into his "How To Watch Internet TV" contest.
The second was by Sara Scurfield for the Association of Internet Marketing & Sales (AIMS) Canada blog. Sara and I spoke about band/brand marketing in Second Life, part of the lead up to my AIMS presentation next week the always awesome C.C. Chapman.
