Mon, February 23, 2009 Wyndstorm Corporation Successfully Launches Moogis.com, Live Jam Band-Focused Music Website
WASHINGTON--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--[ Wyndstorm Corporation ] (OTCBB:WYND), a leading provider of end-to-end social network technology and online marketing services, today announced the launch of Moogis.com, a live music website developed in conjunction with Net Music Communities. The site, powered by Wyndstorm's social media platform, will provide subscribers with streaming video access to entire live concerts by the Allman Brothers and other established and new Jam Bands, both in real time and on-demand from its archives.
Successfully developed and implemented in a three-week timeframe, the site also features full social networking and e-commerce capabilities. In addition to offering streaming video service, Moogis.com operates as a social website and gathering place where fans create their own profiles, join discussion groups and meet like-minded fans, just as they would at live concerts.
Moogis.com, is launching just in time for the Allman Brothers Band's historic 40th anniversary concerts, to be held at the Beacon Theatre in New York City. Moogis.com is webcasting the Allman Brothers Band's entire 15-show Beacon Theatre concert series beginning March 9, 2009.
"For years, I had a vision of how the Internet could bring the live concert experience into people's homes, dramatically expanding the audience and the experience, and finally, with the help of Wyndstorm, technology has caught up with this dream," said Butch Trucks, founding member and drummer of the Allman Brothers Band. "The fans of the bands we have lined up understand two things about jam concerts: it's about the music, and it's about the social experience. That's why Wyndstorm's social media solution was the ideal platform."
"Social media and Web 2.0 technologies provide an excellent means to communicate with your audience, but can be difficult to harness when incorporating several different functions, such as video, chat or content sharing, into one website," said Wyndstorm CEO Marian Sabety. "Wyndstorm's Social Media platform has pre-built features that enabled us to launch Moogis.com in a short amount of time, while supporting the complex social media capabilities it required."
Wyndstorm, which designs, builds and hosts social media, multi-user gaming, online entertainment and ecommerce Web properties, launched its Social MicroSites product earlier this month. Social MicroSites enables Wyndstorm to design, build and host fully-featured interactive social media web sites with greater ease, providing marketers and companies with the opportunity to integrate social media components into their web marketing plans quickly and effectively. The platform is based on leading open-source applications combined with Wyndstorm's market-tested tools and technologies.
