BET.com calls it "Diddy Week" and it kicks off tonight, according to Diddy's site with Diddy appearing on 106 & Park tonight (Monday).

There is a new site up. It's a nice design and there are many features that you would expect, such as a mailing list, news, appearances and some YouTube integration. Some notable ones:
- Audio player where you can listen to much of the album.
- Video section is nice and it features a video I don't remember seeing on YouTube, one with Jamie Foxx. Perhaps I just missed it, though.
- A community. I hope they have people actively moderating it.
Some sections, called "Be Seen & Heard", "Words of Advice" and "Diddy Pics" are coming soon.

Gambit at BadBoyForever.com remarked after seeing the Diddy performance on Letterman, that s/he wanted a Diddy unplugged album now. Thinking about it, that really isn't such a bad idea. I mean, most likely it won't happen, but you never know.
AllHipHop.com has part 1 of their interview with Diddy:
AllHipHop.com: You mentioned staying in your lane...there have been instances with songs like, "Hate Me Now" by Nas and "My Downfall" by Biggie where you were angry. How have you changed or evolved since those days?
Diddy: As time goes on, I realize how powerful music is and its important to be honest on record, and it’s also important to put positive feelings out there. Because, whatever you say on record is most likely going to come true. That's how powerful it is. When I make music, I don't censor myself, but I try to make sure I pay attention to what I say and make sure I want that kind of energy out there.

This video (watch below), from Diddy's YouTube channel, features a number of celebrities plugging Diddy TV. It features Q-Tip, Bone Thugs N Harmony, Jack Black, Ludacris, MC Lyte, Xzibit, Ice-T ("Hey yo, check this out, this is Ice-T, for my man Diddy. Diddy, you got Diddy TV, probably got Diddy Radio, probably got the Diddy website. You know what I'm saying, but everytime I've met you and kicked it with you, it's been nothing but love."), Fabolous, Dana Dane, Slum Village, Da Brat, U-God, Big Daddy Kane, Styles P (funnily enough), Kid Capri and others.
They have a nice interview with him.
Ballerstatus.com: Is there any other roles that you really want to play? I interviewed Snoop a couple weeks ago and he mentioned that he's dieing to play the role of Miles Davis.
Diddy: I ain't gone lie, I'll have to agree with Snoop, either Miles Davis or Marvin Gaye. They're highly influential artists.
Ballerstatus.com: If you had to name your top three influences in music, who would they be?
Diddy: Barry Gordy, Dr. Dre and Teddy Riley.
Watch it here. He did verses from "Come to Me", "I Am" and "We Gon' Make It". Good performance, especially the final 2 verses (my favorite was the 3rd verse). His mic needed to be turned up a bit, at various points, though.

As I browse around various online stores looking for "Press Play" exclusives, I am coming across a "Limited Edition." Not sure what is limited about it, but I wonder how it differs from the "Exclusive Limited Edition" that Target has, if at all?
It appears that you can get a free "Press Play" t-shirt when you purchase the album at Circuit City on the 17th. See this page for a picture and more.
