And so Comic Con International: San Diegio have closed registration again after, for the second time, the whole computer system crashed.
Epic, the company handling the online registration tell me that it’s Comic Con’s fault, they are unable to handle the amount of registrations that Epic are sending to them – but evidence is that few people are able to even et that far and the Epic website just can’t handle the traffic. While they boast on their website that hey can handle 100,000 registrations, I guess that doesn’t mean all at the same time. And everyone is making “epic fail” jokes. Comic COn have apologised for the inconvenience, especially for those who got up early/got to work early/went without breakfast to register. And they promise an update soon…
Here are a few people’s experiences
t_WILLI: i got in but then it crashed again. i got my hopes up too!
SirJaffacake: Apparently Epic Registration spent the last three weeks making a bunch of new error pages.
lalabun writin a letter toc10900 Granite St Charlotte, NC 28273 USA i bet it will get there faster than them fixing the reg pag
DRBCH if nerds can’t handle computer server issues, TWICE, what have we come too as a society
slaprabbjt: All I want is a badge with my name on it. made it to step three.
EmilyGuilfoil You know you are a nerd when your Twitter feed is taken over by people complaining about the ComicCon registration site crashing
hyperpearlgirl: They have better servers at McDonalds.
A milestone reached by mobile music discovery service Shazam: the company says it has come good on its promise and reached 100,000 users, picking up 25 million in the last six months alone.
The figures do not break out how many of those are active users, as opposed to those who have dipped into the service once and never again.

But there is evidence that it is making a good return on those who do manage to stay for longer: the original, core service of Shazam lets users enter a snippet of music into an app, or via a mobile website - the service is available via Android, BlackBerry, BREW, iPhone, iPad, J2ME, Symbian and Windows - which Shazam then uses to find the full track. In January Shazam said it was referring 260,000 users to affiliate sites like iTunes on a daily basis as a result of those searches.
Although Shazam has been around for a decade already, it is only in the last few years, with the takeoff in mobile data and smartphone usage, that the service has really come into its own.
This year, Shazam has been moving well beyond its music roots, using the “audio fingerprint” as a way of unlocking other kinds of content. Shazam has partnered with brands in marketing campaigns, and with television shows from the likes of NBC (NYSE: GE) and HBO, to let users “Shazam” clips from ad campaigns and programs to be led to further content: along the lines of an aural version of QR codes.
It has also been trying to further exploit its market footprint by also selling advertising real estate around its own apps: earlier this month it launched expanding ad services, selling the entirety of its inventory to Universal Music until the middle of January, 2011.
While Shazam announced it was profitable back in October 2009, it is still mulling what might be the next step. The company previously told paidContent that it would consider an IPO, more recently Will Mills, head of music and content for Shazam said the company wasn’t focussing on who would buy the company.
