We recently made some small coding modifications and notified Google of these changes in hopes to keep up with their recent search results updates. The web is constantly changing and it's important that we at least try and stay current. If you have not recently taken the time to look around the web, then please do so. The online user experience is shifting and its shifting fast. What was once normal for us is morphing into a whole new standard. Coming sometime in 2010 Microsoft will begin to power Yahoo search with their new Bing algorithm this change alone should make you to re-think your online marketing strategies. Both Google and Bing will included twitter posts into these results to display a more really time effect. Google this year has been making acquisition after acquisition include a mobile advertisement company to their portfolio. In my opinion this plus the development of their Android mobile operating system makes me believe something major is about to go down. And last but not least to top it off by January 1st we plan to officially start the uEmcee Online Store, I sent off for the paper work today so we have our fingers crossed that everything will go smoothly. Once the store is online please support us by making a purchase, we are hoping for success with this addition.

A few minor changes made over the weekend to enhance the user experience. We modified the search feature to included auto suggested location. So now when you enter in the first letter of your search what should be returned is a filtered down list of locations that begin with the letter of your search query. Overall this is a small change but should help speed up user searches and enhance the experience.

We also modified the search results itself. A user is now able to drill down one additional level to the location's city. So basically if you just want to see all of the independent artists/bands that are in Los Angles California or Atlanta Georgia you can. Simply click the city of any artist of band in the search result.

Again these are minor changes but we hope that they make the user experience a bit better.
For any questions or concern please contact us at Feed Back

It's been a while since we've added a new feature to the system, but we are sure you will enjoy this one. Tweeting! It’s incredibly easy, all the cool kids are doing it and it's a great way to increase the visibility to your profile. Simply click on the "Tweet it!" link that's located underneath the "Add To Friends" links and BAM! that's it. The script will do all the work by opening your twitter account and pre-populating the input box, after that it’s up to you to follow through.



With Facebook and Twitter being some of the largest social website in the world we have basically covered all the bases now.

Of course for you to take advantage of this feature you will have to have a Twitter account.
And if you don’t have one... you should get on board http://twitter.com

Show your favorite independent artist some love, I mean they are your favorite right? This past weekend we added a new function/feature to the uEmcee members profile page. This function/feature replaces the old “Flag for Abuse” link with a “Share on Facebook’ link. By simply clicking this like Facebook users can now post their favorite artist’s info that’s including image, location and site address to their Facebook page. We’re happy about this addition and hope it spreads the word. It’s the year of the independent artist, the revolution has started, spread the word!

For Example







P.S. New Jersey, I see you.

This past weekend I added a function that would allow people to embed their favorite YouTube clip using a special code. This function has not been fully tested therefore we are requesting help from the community. This test will be available for a week and if there are no complaints then it will continue running it. Right now this only works with YouTube Video links.

So here are the instructions.
Suppose you just created a video and want to show people on uEmcee. Well there's actually two ways you can obtain the URL from YouTube.

(1) From the address box, (2) From the subscriber box on the right hand side of the YouTube video you want to embed.

The link you want to copy is above the embed link that YouTube provides. Either way the URL should be in the following format

http://www.youtube.com / watch ? v = publishers ID, and should include the full URL including the http:// & www.

So for example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaEStwuW0JE would be an acceptable URL

Placing the special uEmcee tags around the URL will automatically embed the actually video on your uEmcee page.

The special uEmcee tags are {yt} for open and {yt} for closed.
The finish code should look like this

{yt}http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaEStwuW0JE{!yt}

This code should only be posted in your section of your page, this is the only place that it works.

Here's an example of what your video will look like after you post your URL. I used an Eddie Morris FreeStyle Battle from way back for this example… but it's still hot as hell
