Together with the film "This is It", Sony has released a fan website at thisisitfans.com. Meant as the ultimate tribute to the one and only true King of Pop, Michael Jackson, they have recreated the concert, film and album's poster image with thousands of fan-submitted photos.

A lot can be said about the way Michael was treated in the time before his death. A group of fans has even started an initiative to draw more attention to the behaviour of the people around him. More will be said about that in the next years, and I wouldn't be surprised if several people will be facing "death by cause" like charges.

But for now, enough with the negativity. For this once, Sony has actually created something which the King himself could look on and like it. A lot. Fans from all over the world used to gather together to see his concerts or to give him support during the trials.

Those fans have now once again gathered, and will now be able to, virtually, be with their idol for all eternity.

Or, well - at least as long as Sony bothers to pay the hosting bill.

I saw some short vids on the tv last night. I do not like Michael Jackson (or did not like to say correctly), but he was a true artist until his death.

Had to be said, Wouter. He has been one of my heroes ever since Thriller. Innovator of the group dancing which was quickly copied by others, I believe it was the Pat Benatar song who were the first copycats of the group dance. I'll post a likealot about that soon
