Dear Webmaster,

        I want to take this time to offer you a service that you may take a major interest in. Like you I am also a major fan of the Fox Television show American Idol and watched all of the 2003 season and plan to watch the 2004 season. I have even had the great pleasure of  doing interviews with 3 of the contestants from the 2003 season, including Vanessa Olivarez, Julia Demato and Candice Coleman. I have also had the privilege of meeting or conversing by telephone with several of the contestants from the 2003 season. So I am quite familiar with the workings of the show.

    What has changed since then is that I am currently running an internet only radio station/network where we take live and recorded programming and make it available to listeners via the internet.

    I want to extent this offer to anyone with an American Idol website or connections to the show or contestants or any other talent: That if you should have the opportunity to have one of the contestants from any of the seasons of the show grant you a chat session for your website and its viewers then I believe that I can help you greatly enhance the experience. What I am offering is the chance for you to have a live webcast with your favorite talent, instead of just having a closed chat session they can address the fans live via the webcast and answer questions from fans via moderated chat. This way everyone would have a relatively equal chance to ask questions and you would reduce the Mayhem of everyone trying to send questions at the same time. Other advantages would be that hundreds of fans can hear the broadcast and you (web host) would get major exposure for your website.

    How this would work is at the scheduled time the talent or chat moderator would call into our studios or I would call them. Then the web hosts (that's you) would operate the chat room as you normally would, but the questions would be sent to me or the web host can call in on a separate line and I would conference the lines together. You would also have the major advantage of having the audio recorded for archiving.

    If you would like to be part of this project please make sure I have your name on a list I am creating and that way if a chat event should come up I can notify you or if you get to host a chat event I can notify everyone else on the list to spread the word.

    Please write back with any suggestions or other contacts. I want to get this operation in full gear for the start of the 2004 season which should prove to be very interesting I am also planning to do an interactive call-in show where we discuss the events of the 2004 and other seasons as well as other events.

    Sincerely at your service.
    Scott Meenen
