“The idea came to me while browsing the numerous social networks,” said JellyRadio.com Executive Producer Norman Jester, a.k.a. DJ Dizzo, who is also CEO of Otay Mesa Data Center, Inc. “With so many of our listeners on Myspace, YouTube and the like, I saw a need for all of them to connect in a place of their own. JellyFish gives our listeners an outlet to become involved with the station. Rather than calling the request line, they can now hop online to chat with the DJ’s and collaborate with other listeners and music fans. I also took features from the most popular social networks and bookmarking sites to really build a resource for everyone. Much like JellyRadio.com is music for the world coast, JellyFish is a community that connects continents.”
Members of the JellyFish community start by making a profile and can get involved in many ways that include:
• Chat. One of the main reasons that hundreds of JellyRadio.com fans have already joined JellyFish is to chat with the celebrity DJ’s and submit music requests. Listeners can also connect with other members to chat about everything from music and events to career topics and advice.
• Classifieds. JellyFish members have access to posting and viewing classifieds in categories that include items for sale, casting calls, housing and rentals, jobs, music exchange, personals and services. All listings are free. The Jellyfish developers want this site to be a resource to its listeners who are also job seekers.
• Events. Members can find and post the latest events all over the world and know where the JellyRadio.com team will be. This is the go-to resource for everything from career fairs and networking events to arts, entertainment, concerts and clubs.
• Sharing. JellyFish allows users to post, write and view blogs, articles, music, photos and videos.
• Music. When all is said and done, JellyFish boils down to the music. Music fans can listen to JellyRadio.com 24/7 and share links to other great music sites or videos.
The JellyFish Web site went live in November 2008 and invited a few listeners to join. Now with a few hundred members and positive feedback, JellyRadio.com is pleased to announce to official launch of JellyFish, its own online social community.
