Gossip Girl Bring You In…

In today’s society everyone wants “in”. What they want in to is up for discussion but everyone wants in. The Show Gossip Girl is a show about the glamorous lives of the people who are “In” but the catch is that there is a person out there who is writing all about their dirty little secrets on her blog. She is known as Gossip Girl. Keeping up with the theme, the creators of Gossip Girl teamed up with Verizon Wireless to create a way for the audience to get “in” to the show. If you go to the Gossip Girl website (http://www.cwtv.com/shows/gossip-girl/) at the bottom is a box that links you “into” Gossip Girl. Here you can sign up to get the Gossip Girl texts when the characters get them in the show. You can also fill out some basic questions and have Gossip Girl post something about you. While answering the basic questions the website asks for a picture and allows you to connect to Facebook to get the picture and publish to your wall what Gossip Girl says about you. This is a show that brings the audience “in” to the world that they have created for the show.

NickJr…getting them early

My cousin was about four by the time she could log herself onto the computer find the Nick Jr website and play games by herself. Well that is exactly what Nick Jr wants. Their shows all prompt learning of different things and they extend this learning to the web. The website breaks down to picking a show and then you can play games about the show. While this isn’t technically social media, there is a pre-social media to it. Kids start to learn that the web can include some extensions from their favorite shows. One the Nick Jr website you can watch videos, listen to the radio, and play games with your favorite shows. This website shows how shows aren’t just on TV anymore.
