I was wondering when Radio stations were going to get on the ball. They have the built in following so I see this as a great move.
Now if they can manage to find different developers than the ones they use to create their normal sites. Most every radio station site I visit is less than up to par.

The Clear Channel thing highlights an interesting point I’ve been considering lately. Probably the biggest draw of the social sites is the community. If that community continues to fragment with more and more social sites coming onto the scene won’t that dilute things back to the point they are now? Tons of sites with small cliques of fans etc?
