Blog Community Widgets Need to Work Together

Recently, we have seen the public release of Google FriendConnect and Facebook Connect. As a result of this, there is a massive land grab on all blogs. Which widget are you installing? Some people say you should install the Facebook widget because it basically opens things up to the whole social network. Others say that… Read More Blog Community Widgets Need to Work Together

YAGP: Blogging’s Future and Administrivia

Yes, it is that time again. I have another guest post at LouisGray.com. I would also like to announce that I will not be announcing guest posts at LouisGray.com anymore. I have been “given the keys” as Louis likes to say and will be an irregular contributor on the site. I say irregular because I… Read More YAGP: Blogging’s Future and Administrivia

Did Twitter Just Buy Revenue?

Twitter has been in the news a lot the past few days. Besides the various reports and commentary regarding their rejection of the Facebook offer, they also bought a company, closed its services and kept the founder. This seems really odd at first, until you realize what they have done. First, according to his own… Read More Did Twitter Just Buy Revenue?

What is The Right Price For Twitter?

Well, at least we know what the topic of conversation will be on many major sites today. Kara Swisher reported that Twitter and Facebook have had acquisition talks, but they have failed. The price is said to be $500 million in Facebook stock, with no cash changing hands. Personally, I was surprised at this price… Read More What is The Right Price For Twitter?

Facebook Is Not The Place To Blow Off Steam

For some reason, many people have the idea that if they use a social network or other popular website they can say whatever they want. People feel that sites like Facebook are their playground. They can talk about their employer or former employer without any recourse. People are finding out that this is not true.… Read More Facebook Is Not The Place To Blow Off Steam

Newspapers, RSS for the Mainstream User

Steve Rubel started a lively discussion about how RSS adoption has peaked. I only somewhat agree with his assertion, and it is because I agree with his reasoning: Lord knows, as someone who spends three hours a day in Google Reader, I am a giant evangelist for RSS. But I am also a realist. Feeds… Read More Newspapers, RSS for the Mainstream User

What is Digg Planning?

Image via CrunchBase Digg has done a lot of interesting things over the years, but recently they did something that confuses me. First, they banned Zaibatsu, possibly the third most active user of Digg. A few days later they announced new funding for what they call international expansion. About one week after that announcement, they… Read More What is Digg Planning?

Facebook is the Key to the Mainstream

Image via CrunchBase As usual, Chris Brogan has a very good post regarding people in the real world and social media. The basic idea is that “normal” people live in a different world than the social media crowd: Sometimes, it’s worth flashing a bit of a public reminder that even though it seems like lots… Read More Facebook is the Key to the Mainstream

Insights From Three Years of Blogging

This is a guest post from David Peralty of Xfep and a member of the Grand Effect blog network. When I first started blogging, it had already become old hat for some, and while the term didn’t exist in popular culture there was already a shift happening among the idealists and technophiles: things were moving… Read More Insights From Three Years of Blogging

I Want To Change The Way I Work

Recently, I was asked why my current company hired me and why I joined. It was an honest question (or at least I thought it was), and I answered the question as honestly as I could, “I was hired in order to help us change.” My hiring manager made a point of asking “change related”… Read More I Want To Change The Way I Work
