Bum Rush The Charts

This is a cool idea. To show the awsome power of social media in action and to send the music biz a big message, a group have got together and have come up with the idea of getting an idependent music artist to number one in the ITUNES music charts for one day, 22nd March 2006. They are asking everyone to purchase this song from ITUNES on this day. And they have signed up as an affiliate of the iTunes Music Store, and every commission made on the sale of the chosen song by Black Lab called "Mine Again" will be donated to college scholarships, partly because it's a worthy cause, but also partly because college students are among the most misunderstood and underestimated groups of people by big media.

The date for the combined effort is 22nd March. You can find out more about this at their web site at http://bumrushthecharts.blogspot.com/

Slam Idol Open Writing Challenge

I will be soon particpating in a unique audio blogging experiment masterminded by podcaster Simon Toon who hosts the Slam Idol podcast, a poetry contest via podcasting. Simon's idea is to have several poets take part in a contest and make daily audio blogs about the creation of their poetical entry into the competition.

This will be an interesting and maybe eye opening look at the creative process in action, or for me, in-action. One thing is for sure, it will inspire me to write something. What that something will be is anyones guess.

Keep listening to the audio blogs for further info, Simon is going to collect the daily blogs and edit them into a round up of all the poets progress. Go to his web site for more information on the contest. Or check out the Association Of Poetry Podcasting forum here.
