What's All This Buzz About a Fantasy-Based Social Network?

A new social network has hit the web, and it’s all centered around fantasy. Middle-earth Network is quickly gaining ground, after their radio station launch last month. Since they hit the air, many prominent figures in the Tolkien world have joined forces with them, and now they’ve gone a step further. My Middle-earth Network became available in it’s beta form to the public just last week, and already it has been flooded with members. Now Tolkien fans have access to forums, chat rooms, calendars, and news as well as the ability to post photos, videos, music, create groups, and write blogs - and it’s all in one place!

Among those to join: Weta Workshop, Ted Nasmith, LOTRO, The White Tree Fund, A Casual Stroll to Mordor, Green Dragon Inn, The Lonely Mountain Band, Gandalf’s Fist, Turbine, Jef Murray, Middle-earth Minutes, Mad Dwarf Workshop, The Tolkien Professor, Arjan Kiel, SQPN etc.

And the news doesn’t stop there. This Tuesday, April 19th at 9:30 PM EST, The Tolkien Professor ( Corey Olsen) will be on Middle-earth Network Radio, LIVE, with a special announcement. It’s rumored that a crazy news journalist ( yours truly) is ready to bombard him with all kids of questions, so be sure to tune in.

You can follow Middle-earth Network on Facebook and Twitter.
