Music Artist: We need your help!

Music on fan's phones: Help us shape the serviceIf you're a performing music artist, help shape a new service that will enable you to create and grow your fan followers community on their mobile phones.
Please help us shape the service by participating in a 10-question survey (or click here: http://www.tinyurl.com/artsurvey). We will draw a $25 iTunes card for those who leave us their email at the end.

If you're not a performing artist, that's OK, you're still human (in our view). You probably have a kid, nephew, neighbor's kid or someone else you know who is a music artist. Have a think, we're sure you'll come up with one (or ten!).

THANK YOU!

Mark is making it happen

Mark Doerschlag is making it with Mark's Guide
If you've been reading my blog, you know that I'm a big fan of Mark Doerschlag and his unbelievable useful professional scene networking and event guide named Mark's Guide.
For someone who is constantly snowed under and doesn't have time to search for relevant events, and more specifically, is in need for networking in new fields (recently, mobile advertising), Mark's Guide has been the perfect tool for me. It's in my reader, I check it twice a week, add to my calendar with his great calendaring system and much more.
Mark's Guide has done well in the local Boston scene, but now it seems that Mark is taking it to the next level, and rightfully, getting the appropriate recognition for it. He's now launched in NY, Chicago, Philly, Washington (I bet Silicon Vally's next). He's also been interviewed in the BBJ (see the picture).
I couldn't be happier for Mark: he's really been chippin' away for a while and now seeing success. I'm sure there's much more behind the corner for him.
And I'm so lucky to be his friend!
