New site encourages fans to put band's content on their own pages and blogs
Jamiroquai has launched a new social networking site with the aim of getting the English funk band's content onto fans' websites.
Content on the new site includes songs, video, event details, merchandise and artist resources.
Fans will be able to interact with the band, enabling them to place popular widgets and Jamiroquai content on their own social networking and blog pages easily.
The website also employs a new calendar software called Spongecell that allows updates on where the band is and what they're doing.
The software catalogues the bands journey from its arrival on the London Acid Jazz scene in the early 1990s to the present day.
The new Jamiroquai.com website is driven by an e-commerce platform that enables fans to buy CDs, digital downloads, exclusive merchandise and news using RSS to distribute content, calendars and photos.
The new Jamiroquai site was created by content management system (CMS) and software specialists Modera.
Jay Kay of Jamiroquai said: "The internet is shaping the future of music and I'm excited by the potential it offers artists. The new Jamiroquai.com site takes advantage of the internet's growing ability to connect and share more intimately with our fans."
"They are now more involved building and sharing what they wish from the content on our site, even creating content themselves to share with us and each other," he added.
