    …given the most visible use of retweets on Twitter is links, with aggregators like Tweetmemetracking which stories get retweeted the most, it’s a big move for Facebook that makes its service even more Twitter-like maybe it’s just me, but is there any good at all in making facebook more twitter-like?  if facebook is trying to…

  • I’m giving away Google Wave invites!

    is google wave still relevant, or 2009’s biggest disappointment?  i’m still holding out for relevant, but i think it needs the kind of all-hands-in adoption that email has today.  but you’re sick of hearing the hype, right?  all these people talking and you still haven’t even seen what the damn thing looks like.  well you’re…

  • app review: skimmer

    application: skimmer result: undecided with so many great twitter and social networking apps out there, there’s a lot to choose from, and some stiff competition. and with so many social networks and a lot of crossover between them, you’d need to work hard to build something to suit everybody. this is a review for a…

  • add social links to your site

    i spent this morning building and adding some social linking to our site. with all the digging and twittering and facebooking going on, if you have content worth sharing and you aren’t providing ways for people to share it, it’s fairly likely that people won’t. now, i have digg, facebook, and delicious bookmarklets in my…
