Welcome to the David Archuleta Honeybee blog. We BUZZ for David! The honeybee is Utah’s State Insect because it dances to the honey-toned voice of David Archuleta. Haha! If you ever visit Utah, you’ll see honeybee and beehive icons and images everywhere. The State Capitol in Salt Lake City has two giant beehive sculptures signifying “Industry”, the State motto.
The Honeybee Group was formed as a message board on Hey! Nielsen, the social network-market research site created by The Nielsen Company. Nearly 500 David Archuleta fans joined Hey! Nielsen to write opinions about their favorite topic. Our dedicated participation kept David Number 1 in the Music category for many months. Even before the American Idol show ended, David was #1.
DA BUZZing was created for Honeybees.
Alas, Hey! Nielsen is no more. It is slated to be replaced by a “consumer site” in 2009. What will the more than 175,000 members do now? We David Archuleta fans enjoy an abundance of choices among fan sites and David’s official Internet sites. DA Buzzing is one more. We hope our site will fill the gap left by the departure of Hey! Nielsen whose powerful software allowed members to rank and comment on various TV shows, movies, music artists, games and even commercials. We may never know what Nielsen does with all the data it collected, but we now have control over the message and the medium, if not the madness, of David Archuleta “BUZZness”.
We enjoy expressing our knowledge, thoughts, and emotions about David and his music. David’s fans all over the world can come here to learn about him, his music, and the interest he generates.
Let’s start BUZZING!
