Clay 2.0... part 1

Hello Clayfans,

Many of us came to the Internet and technology through Clay - and we remain tech-involved because of Clay and the friendships we have formed online. Filming Clay anywhere and creating videos to be put onto YouTube. Recording his unearthly beautiful voice and his lovely, sweet face in a variety of places and moments, and uploading the mp3s and photos to the Internet to be shared with others. Building our first Websites and blogs (I started this blog after I first saw Clay live in concert - Jukebox Tour in Toronto, August 25th, 2005, what a night!).

Six years after Our Man burst onto the big scene and into our lives, Clay and his fans have a strong Web presence and Internet-related technologies are an integral part of our lives.

What about the newer online tools, the so-called "Web 2.0" tools (although even Web 2.0 is getting to be a passé term), meaning collaborative, user-created content? Twitter, anyone? Twitter is a free micro-blogging/messaging service.

Do Claymates tweet (= participate in Twitter)? Well, yes as a matter of fact, some of us do. Me, I lurk, so far - I'm at https://twitter.com/ClayKat - trying to figure out the hype around Twitter. I've found 4 other fans so far - or they have found me, I'm not sure! Come and join us - and tell me why Claymates need to be on Twitter.

More to come on other Web 2.0 tools and Clay in another post!
