Buzznet was founded in March 2003 by Anthony Batt. The company is based in Hollywood, California and has secured $43.5 million in funding from various sources including RedPoint Ventures. The site has grown in size since it was launched and has acquired a number of smaller sires including Stereogum, Idolator, and Absolute Punk all of which were acquired in 2008. Buzznet released celebuzz in June 2008 which is a social media destination aimed at celebrity news. Celebuzz is based on the same business model as Buzznet but simply aimed specifically at celebrities and their lives.

Unlike other social networking sites, this site is aimed specifically at musicians. It’s a vibrant community where members will often share millions of photos and videos every single day. The galleries featured on the site are second to none and are the best on the internet.

The application has a very clean and modern design which makes using it a real treat. The most recent stories are featured on the homepage or you can search or click through to find other artists and information about them. Not only is the site home to well known artists but there are also communities for up and coming artists that people are just starting to get to know.

Registering for an account won’t be a problem for anyone. When registering first choose whether you will mainly be registering as an artist or as a personal account, you will be able to change this later so don’t worry too much about it. You will also have to enter your username, email address and password. The password does not need to be confirmed which is slightly unusual. Remember to uncheck the box at the bottom if you don’t want the newsletter. Also watch that if you type anything wrong then the newsletter box will be ticked even if you un-ticked it last time. When registering you can also invite friends from your instant messaging applications or email accounts.

The site is supported by adverts but is completely free to join and use. The adverts aren’t noticeable and don’t make any difference to people wanting to use the site.
