Bill is returning to the spotlight to promote "The Cosnarati", a socially conscious hip-hop group he hopes will guide young people to do good with their lives.

As such, Bill's "people" have determined that Cosby needs to get involved with this glitzy new "social media marketing" thing the kids are all doing these days. Bill's social media tendrils have reached out across 12seconds, Facebook, Flickr, Blog Talk Radio, MySpace and Cinch among others, and he'll be hosting a live stream on Ustream.tv on Monday October 19 (tomorrow) at 7pm ET. He's got a Facebook app too - it lets you dress yourself in a Cosby-style sweater.

Meanwhile, Cosby is getting to grips with a certain micro-blogging site that he calls "Twit and Tweetie" (he's @billcosby). And he's learning the ropes at the "Twitter for video" site 12seconds, as the video below attests.
