Thanks to Pownce, I was introduced to 8apps.com today. It’s a social network for productivity geeks! I was so excited – still am (if anyone wants to pass alomng an invite…) – only to find that the development team behind it seems to have gone their separate ways in the last couple of weeks. Would [...]
A Backlash Against Facebook Applications Will Come — This is How. This came to me from my Twitter link to Scoble’s Link Blog. I’ve been following the Jason Calacanis posts (and he actually “friended” me on Facebook today – after I first “friended” him. It gets confusing.). I can understand how the “A-List” bloggers MUST [...]
This is a recent (May 2007) report from eMarketer that estimates that ad spending on social networks will continue to increase(30% increases?) significantly in the next 5 years. And that was before the Facebook platform opened up. What companies and agencies need to realize is that they need to be educated about Web 2.0 and [...]
Great story on Pownce in yesterday’s NY Times – I’ve been on Powne for about a month and, while it hasn’t integrated into my life as easily as Twitter has, I’ve found new “friends” (different from Twitter and Jaiku). And I have noticed my use growing in the last 2 weeks. So it’ll be interesting [...]

Best definition I read so far – when anyone asks me from now on, I’m sending this!

Congrats to the lead investors, Union Square Ventures and the angels, and the entrepreneurs.  I’ve been [...]
The big ban on employees accessing Facebook at NevilleHobson.com: “Earlier this month, in FIR #254, Shel and I discussed quite an interesting story of what one company did regarding employee access to and use of Facebook. That story, of the law firm Allen and Overy’s Facebook U-turn, is a good example of how a company [...]
techPresident %u2013 Candidate Noshows at BlogHer: Obama, Giuliani, Richardson, McCain, Thompson, Romney…: “” So incredibly stupid, one of the largest congregations of bloggers this year – ignored. (Via Scobleizer-Link Blog.)
I’ve just started reading “Marketing to the Social Web: How Digital Customer Communities Build Your Business”, by Larry Weber. The book talks about how he future of marketing is “a two-way street” (Amazon.com) and that you have to “communicate with, not at, customers”. I agree. Companies, especially large corporate entities, don’t own their brand or [...]
This is a Wired Magazine Throwdown, y’all! Second Life and other metaverses started a marketing frenzy in some of the well-established brands, like Coke, IBM (who’s the model of Second Life adaption) and Starwood Hotels (I have a SL conference center for companies to be able to explore a SL event without investing in their [...]
