You know I love all of you.
However visiting Myspace is like visiting a trashy discount strip mall surrounded by obnoxious flashing billboards!!! It gets worse and worse! I used to be good at tuning that shit out, but the advertising is seriously limiting my experience (and I won't even start on the byzantine interface). Its reached a point where I find it so offensive that I don't like to come here.
People will say that this is a free service, and I should be grateful and just shut up and accept the advertising. But I don't accept it. There has got to be a way to be able to make money while keeping some kind of dignity.
(There, I said it, watch this blog get canned!)
I am here less than I used to be, however, you're my fans, and I NEED YOU. Seriously, I really need you. I don't have a label or management and Myspace is one of the primary ways I can reach you and tell you about stuff. So, I won't abandon you until the bitter end (and when Myspace implodes, how will we find each other?) BUT, PLEASE, if you want to know what I'm doing, sign up on my mailing list:
http://www.zoekeating.com/contact.htmlI won't advertise to you, I will treat you with respect and I only email about once a month. And, for the fun stuff that we all like about social networking....You should know that I am spending a LOT of time on Twitter!
http://www.twitter.com/zoecello and
FacebookThere are even 2 of me on Facebook, Zoe Keating the person, and Zoe Keating the artist page. Confusing, but I started my personal page before they had fan pages, and now I don't know how to unify myself. (Probably best to sign up to my "page" in case I discontinue the personal one)
So, if you can't stand it here any longer either...COME ON OVER to TWITTER & FACEBOOK
(and then we'll move to the next thing when they get ruined, and so on, and so on...!)
celloly yours, Zoe
