U2.0

u20

One thing I have always loved about U2 has been their ability to evolve with the times. Today’s U2 webcast concert available as a stream through youtube was no exception. In an apparent world first, not only could you watch (live from pretty much anywhere in the world)  but you could comment (110,000+ comments), live tweet (probably in the millions by now), buy the new album (of course) and donate to their new cause (red). Before the stream had begun, social networking blogs, sites etc were doing their thing – for a more in-depth review with some stats click here. Like them or hate them (and obvously a lot of people are in the like), these guys sure know how to be quick to embrace the best the world has got to offer to spread their music and raise interest around a cause. Me, well this just makes me love em even more!
