One of the online networky type things i’ve been following of late is Twitter. Basically, a mini blogging tool that can be updated via the web or mobile phone and users can keep up to date with anyone they wish to follow. I’m keen to explore how this tool can benefit the projects i’m starting to get involved with so as an experiment, I’ll be “tweeting” the events at Tuesday Night Live @ Soundbar, Birmingham, inbetween taking photos. I’ll try to convey the activities of the night, get some feedback from the bands and punters and generally provide a running commentary..Hopefully, we’ll get a few people who are interested, keeping track of the night as it unfolds and posting a few questions to the bands etc.
Twitter won’t be the best method of conveying the live music atmosphere, of course, already looking at some of the live mobile phone streaming services out there such as bambuser or qik, but that’s for another day.
