Tweetology, the Twitter curation platform we helped develop for online advertising giant, Adgent007, will be appearing on the big, big screen!

Jumbotron big.

Essence Magazine has chosen Tweetology to become the offical Twitter curation platform for the three-day Essence Music Festival in New Orleans, LA.

Concert-goers will be able to see real time tweets during the show from fellow concert-goers and the artists appearing at the festival.

Some of the artists in the feed will include:

Janet Jackson
LL Cool J
Mary J Blige
Gladys Knight
Monica
Arrested Development

We’ll be posting pics from the show next week!

We’ve been busier than North Pole elves lately, launching a very cool new product called Tweetedia for our client Adgent 007.

We’ll be at digiday:APPS on December 10, 2009, at The Renaissance Hotel, Hollywood. At 12:15pm we, along with the Adgent 007 team, will be demonstrating how Tweetedia works and how it can benefit your web site.

For all of the information you need to catch up with us at digiday:APPS, click here. If you don’t want to wait until Thursday to learn more about Tweetedia, click here!

We hope to see you there!

If you need to speak with someone urgently, you can reach us by filling out this form, and someone will get back to you as soon as possible.

We hope everyone has an enjoyable and relaxing Thanksgiving weekend!
