Name Change to Indie Music 2.0

You've probably noticed I've changed the name of this blog to Indie Music 2.0 from Indie Music Marketing. I did this because a couple of weeks ago I started to expand my topics beyond DIY marketing and promotion to also include articles on the trends, products, services, policies, conferences and technology that are influencing the next generation of the indie music industry as well. When I started this blog I wasn't sure of the direction it would take, and I'm still not (that's for my readers to determine), but there's just too much going on in the music industry not to take a more comprehensive approach. Not to mention, I've been getting great feedback from readers like you when my articles have covered broader music topics for indie musicians. Also, the new name will probably only be a temporary one, as I would like to find a more suitable title. So in the coming weeks I will solicit your help in creating a more permanent identity... details to follow next month...

Also, you may have noticed that I re-designed my site some. It's fairly mediocre, but it's about the most customization my TypePad account can handle, so I will probably move to WordPress for more design flexibility in the coming months. Hopefully by the end of the year. Until then, I will attempt to make it as user friendly as possible.

As always, I welcome your comments.

Peace

BTW, when you get a moment, check out my new poll about Synchronicity Live and/or my radio stations on Pandora

I like the new name and the new look. I can't wait to see what happens if you move your blog. I forget where I had mentioned bands using thier cds for blog contests but I am running a contest at Netvalar Speaks on Music it is more a cyberhunt then contest. Giving away 1 of 2 cds or $7.50 via PayPal. If you wanted to take a look it is at http://netvalar.blogspot.com/2007/09/cyberhunt-1.html.

Anyways I will let you know how it works out next month.
