First foray into social media is dead

August 5th, 2008 by Andy Merchant

I shed a little tear yesterday for my first truly online social experience which has sadly passed away. The site in question is Social FM or Mercora as I new it back in 2005. This was probably one of the first applications/networking sites that got me interested in the social media space.

Mecora was founded in 2003 and Re-branded to compete with the likes of online music giants Last FM, it was a free music network that allows users to listen to a digital radio network of over three million songs with in personalised profile pages.

Thanks for the memory’s Mercora, I leave you with this!

"There is no hesitation in my mind that Liberate Media is the agency of choice for PR. Their understanding of our business - but better still their ability to communicate it effectively - has been unbelievable. Over the last decade at the forefront of the digital arena I have met and worked with numerous agencies - but none come close to the expertise of Liberate Media."
