Bands As Buddies - iLike Facebook Update (VIDEO)
iLike Facebook Update

iLike is a cutting edge web service that allows artists and fans to connect over online communities like Facebook.

Trend Hunter was bang on when we predicted the rise of web service, iLike back in March. “iLike is a relatively young music community based software service, having only just reached the rip old age of four months, but I predict that this is going to become a very popular service, and the principles on which it is based will be adopted by many other music services.”

And right we were! Seven months later, AdHoc gives it credit for being the next big thing in music. Music artists are able to connect with their fans over communities like Facebook where they can give fans updates on new concerts, album launches, share photos and videos, or just share personal details.

 Thanks to its popularity among Facebook users, iLike is now one of the fastest growing music services in the world, with 13 million users worldwide and three million more being added monthly. Among music applications built on Facebook Platform, iLike has a dominant first-place position, with over 20 times more daily users than the second-place contender, according to Facebook's public applications directory. As a result, iLike is rapidly being adopted by artists and record labels as their preferred vehicle for promoting music to Facebook users. The new features announced today include iCast, a multimedia blogging tool including mobile video posting for artists, and a personalized News feed for fans to follow what's new among their favorite artists. "We're giving artists the opportunity to communicate directly with their fans on Facebook and iLike.com, whether they're announcing concert dates or simply sharing a personal moment," said Ali Partovi, CEO of iLike. "Over the past few months we've accumulated a tremendous wealth of information about who likes what and now we?re empowering artists to use this data to cultivate their own viral fan communities."
