I am a jazz musician by trade; I psend a hell of a lot of time on the internet; but it seems not many people "get it" - it's as if "Jazz" = "no need for an online presence". I will take a very close look at Dave Holland's site for sure. Meanwhile, as a jazz player who DOES Twitter, blog, and etc. allow me to introduce myself: Neil Alexander - Jazz Synthesist. Believe me - they don't get that, either. Thanks - ! Excellent post, and I agree: Jazz needs to Wake the fuck up.

Good stuff all around, Ian. Thanks for the smart look at this issue. And thus begins my shameless plug: I interview jazz people who are making music I like on my online show The Jazz Session (http://thejazzsession.com). The 84 episodes of the show have been downloaded 300,000+ times, which I think speaks to your "build it and they will come" point. The design of my site is not particularly sexy, but I think it's functional and easily navigable. That said, I always welcome critical feedback (or design assitance!). And I'll also second your opinion of Garrett Shelton. He loves the music very much and is fiercely committed to expanding its audience. Great guy. Thanks again for this insightful post. Jason Wow.
