Verified profiles are now commonplace on Twitter for artists, celebrities and other corporate accounts, to show that the account really does belong to that person or company. Now social music startup Turntable.fm is using the same idea for its avatar-based service. Talib Kweli has become the first artist to get a verified account and his own avatar for Turntable.fm, having visited the company’s office. The company has already announced that it has an avatar reserved for deadmau5, but it will be interesting to see how many other artists jump on the bandwagon. We’re awaiting confirmation of the news that Lady Gaga and Kanye West are among the investors in the company’s first round of funding, too. Source: Mashable
