Zune-Online.com Zune News, user Forum and more.
Zune-Online.com is a brand new website dedicated to the Zune player and its community. It is based on near-real time News inclusion but also the social philosophy of the Zune itself.
The power of Zune-Online.com is the fast news updates and their categorization as facts, rumors or opinions. For those who need real time news there are also live feeds updating their contents on a 24/7 basis. Site's features include a list of Zune official and unofficial accessories, a collection of Zune videos, and of course the features that Zune will have at launch.
Respect to the visitors and users is obvious through the site's look and feel altering. The are seven available themes to match everyone's style and mood. The users of the site can also express their opinions on various topics after subscribing to the also multi-themed user Forum or just comment on a published news article. And the user's opinions have been always the most interesting part. The RSS and lots of social bookmark services icons on every article, help the viewers keep track of the news and the user comments.
The Zune Newsletter keeps the subscribers informed. Normally, as the picture in the Newsletter implies, this is a light one with only a couple of emails per month sent but with breaking news extras when appropriate.
But what there is for people that love music? The site created the first Zune related group on Last.FM, the social music revolution site. You can find and join it at http://www.last.fm/group/Zune-Online . The music is a social experience, its cool to meet other people with the same taste in music, interact and share the music experience with them.
The site also includes an online store with Zune and all its accessories available but also music CDs and DVDs. Always updated and ready to ship the products to its customers worldwide.
Zune is a social product and Zune-Online.com has understood this.
