Gotta DIGG! - The Song - Viral Promotion Tactic

Kina Grannis' music video, "Gotta DIGG!" , is getting some attention in the blogosphere - TechCrunch pointed me towards it. Kina is a finalist in the Doritos "Crash the Super Bowl" contest - the winner will get a music deal with Interscope and airtime for their music video during the Super Bowl. Targetting DIGG users was a very smart way to spread the word on-line. The contest is a smart way for Interscope to to find new talent for their label - I think we'll be seeing more of this kind of thing in 08. Social networks, like Facebook and Myspace.com, are providing record labels with a very effective tool for developing new talent.
