Long before the enforcement of copyright laws against online media took place, ireansMusic was one of the biggest social network sites in
ireansMusic was not only unique in its concept and functionality but also for its intuitive and user friendly design and growing community that all cared and shared joys and sorrows with each other. Just like their tagline, Sharing is Caring
Soon after ireansMusic was shut down, their users started going different ways; some started new communities with fellow Ireans users, some went into blogging and some joined other communities
ireansAV was born in mid-May 2009 after months of thorough brainstorming and planning. The actual development phase only took awhile. The pre-production stage was much more important to ensure that ireansAV will have the same aura, the same vibe, the same effect just like ireansMusic. ireansMusic captured hearts all over the world and ireansAV would need to do the same as well
ireansAV is a site to share music videos from YouTube together with its lyrics. Think of it as an interactive lyrics database or online karaoke lounge. Some noticeable features that will be coming up soon are
- Add guitar chords to each video, other than lyrics
- Implementation of social media function
- Integration of inline IM (similarly like Facebook chat) with other ireansAV users
- Covers section for each video, for users who would like to see cover versions of a song
- Comment system on each video
- .. and more to be revealed soon!
Since its launched early today, May 15th 2009, 88 videos have been submitted and shared on the site, and we can predict there would be more to come in the next few weeks.
An email blast has been sent out to the existing user database of ireansMusic. It’s estimated that out of 100, 000 users, only 30, 000 would be back to ireansAV. Nevertheless, that’s already more than enough to kick off a fresh and new community!
