The 1st true pop star of the web age is upon us and I believe it is reasonable to say it isn’t what anybody anticipated. All of the science Fiction possibilities of home PC recording programs, digital distribution offering instant worldwide exposure, the unlimited visible sorcery of CGI, the power of viral promoting and social networking, YouTube, Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and what do we get? Justin Bieber, a 21st-century Donny Osmond. If you have not heard about Bieber, it likely means you aren’t a ten to 15-year-old girl, nor have one about the house. Bieber is the teenybop idol of the instant, a hunky, brown-eyed boy, sixteen years of age, 5ft 4in ( and growing ), with huge hair, glistening teeth, a sweet voice and that certain sassy something that sets pubescent hearts aflutter.The Justin Bieber Baby music video is out now.
He started in 2006 as a precocious twelve year old uploading greenhorn photos of himself to YouTube singing hits by his RB heroes Usher, Chris Brown, Justin Timberlake and Ne-Yo.
So far, so what? There has to be 1,000,000 or even more would-be pop stars offering karaoke cover versions to an unexcited world. But for some unknown reason, web-browsing tweens picked up on the lovable, small-town Canadian dreamer, emailing links to buddies and ( in the language of the new pop paradigm ) Bieber spread like a pathogen. The web has been given the blame for destroying the music business as we knew it, yet it in addition has become the vital selling tool of our times, performing a part in most modern pop success stories. Even Susan Boyle could be portrayed as a viral phenomenon thanks to the way the clip of her Britain’s Got Talent audition spread around the globe, yet she was above all a TV talent show star.
Woman Gaga is allegedly the 1st pop star to have racked up a bln video perspectives online but she, too, is basically an old school musical entertainer adept in the manners of the modern media. The Gorillaz could potentially claim to be the 1st great band of the web age since it is difficult to visualize how they might have even existed at any other time, yet there’s still something of the old order about them, the clever machinations of vet musicians and artists exploiting new technical chances.

A new online poker site opened up a few months ago, called UFC Poker. It’s a room owned by the UFC fighting organization, but only offers free poker right now. Real money players will need to play elsewhere. If you like tournaments and the UFC, the UFC Poker site offers play money tournaments with points as prizes. With enough earned points, players can trade them for various UFC Poker swag, like hoodies or beanie hats.
After a quick trip around the lobby and poker tables, I noticed also that ring games are not available. If you’re looking to play ring games rather than tournaments, UFC Poker is the wrong room for you. If you’re just looking to hang out with like-minded players, then the room serves that purpose.
I’m hoping that at some point in the future that UFC Poker will grow into a real, full-fledged poker site. With some ring games and real-money play, the UFC has a great audience to market to. Since the majority of the UFC crowd is young men, and the poker market is also mostly young men, it seems to reason that an eventual progression into a more serious room is in the cards, pardon the pun.
The software at UFC Poker needs some work too. While it’s ok for a site to goof around on, no serious poker players will be able to deal with the archaic graphics and buttons. The buttons are difficult to use, and the graphics are about 10 years behind the rest of the industry. Again, the room is brand new, so I don’t want to be too hard on them. So, if you’re looking for a place to have a little fun, try UFC Poker. If you take your online poker more seriously, keep looking around.
