Things That Couldn't Be Done 10 Years Ago
Ten years ago it would have been nearly impossible for a small group of fans to quickly band together and provide any meaningful kind of service for a new star. But today with the amazing reach of the Internet, the instant communications via email, the armchair news creators feeding the blogosphere and the ability to create and sell products online with little or no setup (think Zazzle, iPrint, etc) so much can be done.
I think it's safe to say that only a few weeks ago almost nobody had heard the name Taylor Hicks. Today you can buy a t-shirt showing your support for him. How cool is that? Now that's what I call organic growth.
Now, do I get the black t-shirt or the white one?

If you want this one, you better order it quick! I might be in violation of copyright. My guess is that I'll have to take the "Taylor Hicks" piece off but we'll see.

"New star" is right on! The Soulman's got The Stuff. Great to see him getting good backers.
Groove on Soulman.
