BUZZNET

Buzz Net is a photo, journal, and video-sharing social media network, owned by Buzz Media. Like other social networking sites, Buzz net is a platform for members to share content based on their personal interests.
Unlike classic social networking sites, which focus primarily on messaging and  profile pages, Buzz net members participate in communities that are created around ideas, events and interests, most predominantly music, celebrities, and the media. Buzznet.com was founded by Marc Brown, Steve Haldane, Kevin Woolery and Anthony Bat (CEO). The site was officially launched in 2005 when the company received private funding from Anthem Venture Partners.

User pages are controlled by individual members and can be customized with colors and text. Upon sign in, registered members are prompted to upload videos, photos, or post journals, all of which can be tagged to appropriate tag topic pages.

Tag topic pages house all photos, videos, journals, and links that have been tagged to a particular topic. Topics are most commonly a band, celebrity, or content genre.
Members are recognized for their popularity in the Buzz net community based on the amount of buzz they receive. Each photo, video, and journal can receive buzz from other members. Top buzzed members and top content contributors are recognized throughout the site.

Users can access Buzz net from a mobile device in four different ways. They can upload content directly via email, with ShoZu, or access their account with mobile and I phone versions of the site. With the mobile version, users can update their account, upload photos, and post journals.

The buzz net is a website for people to discuss about different views of music. Banners displayed on the homepage link to Buzz net’s contest groups and Buzz net polls. Each Buzz net contest is typically endorsed by a band, celebrity, or record label. Past contests include “Get Dressed by Avail” March Model Search, endorsed by pop-rock icon, Avail Lavigne, and “Feel the Elite Beat” Dance video Contest sponsored by Nintendo. The homepage also links to music features, festival updates, and Internet stars.
