Steal Your Favorite Bands

We've enabled "favorite band syndication" so you can take the list of your favorite bands which appears on your My JamBase Public Profile and put it anywhere you'd like. (Like your MySpace Page, Blog or Website)


To find the code, simply click the universal symbol for syndication: when looking at your own public profile next to the Favorite Bands area.


Check it out, and post a comment here to let us know where you use it.

Fans



If you're a fan of a band (they're one of your MyJamBase Favorites), and have a MyJamBase Public Profile, then your beautiful mug will appear on the new Band Fans page.

Enjoy, and be wonderful to each other.

Site Updates

A quick hello to all the seven people who are subscribed to the official JamBase Blog RSS feed! We obviously haven't kept this section up to date recently, but plan to post more frequently (yeah right) with site updates, stats and our plans for the future. If you're interested in signing up for our RSS Feed, it is located at http://feeds.feedburner.com/JambaseBlog. You can read all about RSS and why it's important here: http://www.squidoo.com/rss

OK, now onto the site updates:

Artist Profiles

For a while now we've had a wealth of information on artists available but it's been hidden behind various tabs. We're pleased to now have brought that information to the forefront by creating an artist profile featuring (when available), Bio & Photo, Tour Dates, Recent Articles and Goods.

For those artists wanting to submit your official photo and bio, please email (info at jambase.com) with the bio & photo attached (300x200 jpg preferred).

If you're logged into MyJamBase when looking at an artist's page and have friends who have that band as one of their favorites, you'll see your friends listed...

Which leads us to our next feature creep announcement...

Fan Profiles

Spread Live Music! Now you can make your MyJamBase page public by creating a public profile. From the main MyJamBase page simply click on "My Public Profile" at the top and you'll be taken through a simple set-up process. Once completed you can share your Favorite Bands, their shows and a little information about yourself along with a photo. Your friends will also see your personal concert calendar.

The goal here is to turn people onto your favorite bands and allow you to recommend music simply by customizing your own experience.

This is just the beginning, and we realize that there isn't a way to search for other fans in your area that like the same kind of music as you, but hang on, we're working it out...

Customize, Connect, Discover...live music...Together.

Enjoy, and let us know what you think.
