Wetpaint Launches Content Network for TV Fans

2010-09-06T05:26:16Z

Wetpaint is launching a new content network of 15 sites, dedicated to popular television shows. "Wetpaint has created a sophisticated prescriptive publishing system that taps into trending data, commentary, tweets, Facebook comments, forum topics to build a network of sites that focus on what we all love best – TV," a spokesperson for Wetpaint tells WebProNews.

"As you know, social media has changed how content is discovered," she adds. "A new network from Wetpaint is launching squarely focused on providing a 360 degree view of each show, powered by technology that brings the 360 view to consumers in real time."

Shows include: "The Vampire Diaries," "Grey’s Anatomy," "America’s Next Top Model," "Castle," "Hellcats," and "Nikita." "Glee," "Dancing With The Stars," Top Chef," "Pretty Little Liar," "Bachelorette," "The Bachelor," "Gossip Girl," "Jersey Shore" and "The Real Housewives of DC."

"Wetpaint editors comb the web, social networks, forums and jump on the hottest news for fans – linking photos, the latest videos and gossip to provide one place to find all of the information on their favorite show," the company says. "Additionally the Wetpaint Network includes Facebook pages which enable consumers to keep up on the biggest news – in the pre-launch phase, 400,000 Facebook fans have already joined."

As Wetpaint launches its entertainment network, it is also launching a sweepstakes in which fans can win box sets, and the grand prize – a shopping weekend in NYC.

Twitter Sees Big Usage Increase Over Summer

2010-09-05T14:02:49Z

For some people, summer’s a time to live at the pool. For others, it’s a season better spent vacationing in another state or country. But as it turns out, a lot of people used this summer to become better acquainted with Twitter, increasing the overall number of tweets by 33 percent.

A post on the Royal Pingdom blog stated today, "Twitter processed 2.64 billion tweets this August, an increase of 33% over May. Not a bad increase over just a summer. In August, an average of 85 million tweets passed through Twitter every day."

Then the blog post noted, "And if you look at the whole year so far, the increase is even more impressive. Activity on Twitter has already more than doubled this year (August had 115% more tweets than January)."

That’s quite a lot of growth, as the graph below shows.

It should be interesting to see if Twitter’s rate of growth drops off as everybody returns to the usual grind, setting aside frivolous things. Or perhaps it’ll pick up as people tell all their friends and coworkers about the fun social network/indispensable tool.

Of course, other factors – like the fail whale or the recurring idea that Facebook might launch a full-scale attack – could also influence the statistics.
