This is comes handy, I liked the update status feature. | Facebook Notifications brings notifications and status updates from the popular social networking site to your desktop. |
| You can even update your Facebook status at any time via a simple keyboard shortcut (Cmd+Alt+Ctrl+Space by default). |
Very nice interface, good options. Make your “tiny” portfolio online in which you’ll be able to integrate your networks (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc.), a little about you and how to contact you. Choose between many nice skins and features. |
I have thought about this, specially with mainstream media sites where it’s not easy to leave comments. | When most of us have ideas, they get locked way in the portion of our brain where we house the “if only I had the time or the money to do this” spot. |
Shapiro says that he was tired of visiting sites like CNN and not being able to leave a comment without logging in, so he built a way to get around that using the browser and his Twitter ( ) identity. The idea took shape as AddATweet, giving us all an instantaneous way to leave a comment wherever we’d like.
AddATweet is exactly as it sounds: it’s a service that lets you add a tweet/comment to any webpage. The Firefox ( ) plugin supports comments by creating a browser-based sidebar where you can view, add, filter, and tweet comments. |
What Mashable is for social media topics, TwitterList of Squidoo may/will be for Twitter and its Tweeps So Squidoo, the website where you can create interactive information pages, or lenses, is launching its own solution, Twttrlist, which lets you create a Squidoo lens that compiles tweets based on subject. |
The above might not be particularly useful, however, so I’ve also created a more detailed example from the #wisdomwed hashtag, in which people share nuggets of wisdom on Twitter every Wednesday. Under the screenshot is also a list of some other interesting Twttrlists to check out. |
Doing some good when links are shorten with good.ly, similar to Squidoo.
I wonder if there could be a similar program on which you get paid when you promote somone’s site or blog, the problem may be of course the potential for a new kind of spammers (?) A growing number of URL shorteners - like bit.ly and TinyURL - have sprung up recently to make lengthy links more shareable; many also add toolbars, interim preview pages or statistics. But what if you could create a short URL and help a charity at the same time?
|
Good.ly, a new service from Skimlinks, aims to do just that. Whenever you want to create a link to a product or service online (say, to an item on Amazon) you can create the URL on Good.ly and 55% of any referral fees go to a charity you select on the site’s homepage. The remaining 45% goes back into running the service, the company explains. It would of course be ideal if 100% of the income could go to charity, but it’s certainly a step in the right direction.
