NELSON, BC--(Marketwire -03/27/12)- Fans watching NBC's stunning two-hour snowboarding competition Red Bull Supernatural on Saturday, March 31 at 1 pm ET/10 am PT can use the Shazam App to tag the show for exclusive Contour point-of-view footage from the eyes of the world's most progressive riders.

As part of the Red Bull Signature Series, this show brings the best of snowboarding to a national TV audience and harnesses the power of Shazam, the world's leading media discovery app, and Contour, a leader in inspiring video storytelling through hands free point of view cameras.

By Shazam-enabling Red Bull Supernatural, a national TV audience will unlock and share dream runs, jaw-dropping landings and buttery transitions from the best mountain shredders in the world. Viewers activate the Shazam App with a single touch of a button on their mobile or tablet devices to automatically identify the in-show sounds and instantly unlock the exploits of the riders. Once the Shazam App identifies the audio of Red Bull Supernatural on NBC, fans can also connect to related social media to enhance the overall experience of watching the best snowboarders in the world.

There will be both verbal and visual prompts during NBC's Red Bull Supernatural broadcast to encourage people to use Shazam and get access to exclusive Contour point-of-view footage from select competitors, including Travis Rice and John Jackson, who will also be encouraging their fans to use Shazam during the show via their social networks.

The brainchild of snowboarding icon Travis Rice, Red Bull Supernatural is a first-of-its-kind backcountry competition designed to showcase the skills of the best all-around riders on the planet. Over 100 man-made features were built on the slope over the summer, so that once snow fell, a series of tree-line features, jumps and drops emerged creating the ultimate backcountry run.

Supernatural is part of the Red Bull Signature Series -- made up of 35 hours of one-of-a-kind programming on NBC and NBC Sports all year long. Red Bull Media House and Alli Sports, a division of the NBC Sports Group, are building the most progressive and innovative snowboarding, mountain biking, freestyle motocross, ice cross downhill, skiing and BMX events, showcased on custom courses from the inspiration of the athletes themselves.

AUSTIN, Texas, March 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --tweetTV (http://www.tweet.tv), the real-time social TV guide that groups and enhances TV-based conversations happening on Twitter, has raised $750,000 from angel investor Joe Kalfa. tweetTV will use the funds to build and release mobile applications, hire talent, make enhancements to its proprietary algorithms, and power its upcoming partner and social rewards programs.

tweetTV's unique social TV guide updates every minute to show real-time TV watching trends along with localized channel numbers for the user's TV provider. Its real-time search feature enables users to find where the social buzz is among currently airing TV programs based on any combination of genres and networks. And, its cloud-based, embeddable "tweet rooms" go beyond generic hashtags to curate Twitter-based conversations happening around TV programs, adding enhancements such as filters, editorial content,fan polls,and multi-user video chats to the tweet-based TV conversations.

Founder/CEO Bradley Markham says, "I couldn't be more excited about the future of tweetTV. Not all investors or investments are created equally, and in Mr. Kalfa, we found the perfect seed-stage investor who shares tweetTV's vision to create a platform for meaningful social TV conversations and TV discovery tools that re-invent the TV guide."

Says Kalfa, "I strongly believe in tweetTV's vision for becoming the de-facto way for socially active TV viewers users to engage with each other while watching TV."

The tweetTV project was started by former Googler Bradley Markham in 2009 and, until now, has been funded exclusively by Markham as it built out a robust backend and limited beta website that was released to the public in November 2011. Markham says, "We set out in 2009 to give context to the TV-related trends on Twitter, noticing that we could curate and group together TV-related tweets into program-specific conversations and make them filterable, while also showing users how the TV programs on their TVs provider rank in social popularity in real-time."

tweetTV is also among the first startups to be accepted into the Wahooly social startup accelerator program, whereby 5000 social influencers with Klout scores in the 90th percentile will aggressively promote tweetTV beginning later this spring. tweetTV is advised by Joshua Baer (OtherInbox, Capital Factory).

Too many DJs. No, really, way too many DJs.

As the electronic dance-music wave crests, its hard to imagine what it would have felt like to hang out through all of the just concluded Miami Music Week. We spent less than 24 sleepless hours there over the weekend, and we left with our ears ringing, exhausted and wondering when we would ever want to hear Feel So Close again. (OK, now that weve slept, well be happy to hear it today.)

Our Saturday started around 1 p.m. at the Shelborne for photographer Seth Browarniks Art of Night: The DJ Series exhibit and the Pacha Ibiza bash poolside (where DJ Jazzy Jeff and Bob Sinclar would spin later in the day), and it was close to 4 a.m. when we wrapped up at the W South Beachs Wall lounge (where we enjoyed sets by Swedish House Mafia proteges Tim Mason and Third Party).

Steve Aoki climbs out of the DJ booth at the Dream South Beachs Highbar.

These spots would have been enough partying for most people on most days, but this is what we also did in between:

* We popped by the Dim Mak party at the Dream South Beachs Highbar just in time to randomly run into XS co-owner Jesse Waits, who was holding court with DJs including R3hab and Steve Aoki. XS is part of Steve Wynns collection of Las Vegas nightclubs, and Wynn made a monster announcement earlier in the week about 34 exclusive DJ residencies, including Tiesto, David Guetta, Calvin Harris, Skrillex and Swedish House Mafias Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso. Wynn, no doubt, is one of the largest forces financing the DJ craze in America. Vegas, in general, is responsible for keeping so many of the biggest international DJs well-fed. Both Wynn and the group behind Vegas clubs Marquee, Tao and Lavo (which ran the VIP tables at the Ultra Music Festival) flew huge banners above the beach to remind visitors of that.

Aoki jumped into the DJ booth and was soon joined by Lil Jon. Aoki took off his shirt, climbed into an inflatable raft, got thrown in the pool and jumped back into the booth, soaked. S.S. Aoki fans were delighted. Not long after, Afrojack (who brought girlfriend Paris Hilton) joined Aoki in the booth.

* The outdoor Belve Music Lounge at the W South Beach fit maybe a few hundred people. So imagine the crowds delight when Sander Van Doorn spun a fantastic intimate set while Kaskade and Guetta were doing interviews nearby. We were lucky to catch the Dutch up-and-comers set after seeing another Holland hero, Hardwell, get things started in the early afternoon at the W.

* Swedish House Mafia created its Masquerade Motel at Grand Central Park as an alternative to the massive Ultra Music Festival nearby. Friends and family including Alesso, Harris and AN21 spun, but the highlight was SHM itself, with its elaborate light show and special ability to get people to dance happily to songs about love and loss and redemption while wondering if you need all three to save the world.
