Hard Rock goes Twitter/Facebook: But bookmark me, too

As a servant to the public -- meaning I try to report things that make your life better -- I feel it is my duty to break this news: Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino is now online with Facebook and Twitter, according to a casino news release.

The casino says its Facebook Fan Page (www.seminolehardrockhollywood.com/facebook) gives fans "the direct scoop on concert and sporting event on-sale dates, celebrity appearances and more." Also "the site features exclusive photos and video footage from a variety of events at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Hard Rock Live and Seminole Paradise clubs, restaurants and special events."

Examples: visits from Kim Kardashian, Motley Crue, Juan Luis Guerra, Pamela Anderson, Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez. There's also a lineup of all Hard Rock Live concerts and events plus view rare footage from additional special engagements.

And current casino promotions for Seminole Players Club members and last-minute hotel room deals.

Seminole Hard Rock’s Twitter feed is at www.seminolehardrockhollywood.com/twitter. They'll tweet out casino, poker, food and drink specials, last-minute hotel deals and of-the-minute happenings on the casino floor, they say. (The bad news, if you're like me, is you follow 300 people, and the Tweets get overwhelming. Gotta learn to filter.)

They also have RSS feeds at www.seminolehardrockhollywood.com and www.hardrocklivehollywoodfl.com.

Now, all that is well and good. It's clearly great marketing -- the idea is to reach people via the media they are most comfortable with.

But I'd suggest because I see the world through a journalist's eye (and hopefully that of an everyday South Floridian) you also bookmark Sun-Sentinel.com/action and diligently read me. One click a day, say during your lunch time, and you're covered.

I think they just want to ride with the popularity of Twitter and Facebook to let people know that they are one of the best casino and its the best way of advertisement though. Don;t worry i will add you and them to my followed list.
