Just yesterday, Zuck and his team quietly launched a live-commenting feature which takes us back [...]

What Happens When FriendFeed Goes Down?
Earlier this morning, an article was posted on TechCrunch, discussing the fact that FriendFeed was apparently not working. The author claims that the remaining two FriendFeed users were ticked off at being unable to reach their favorite service. With tongue in cheek, he talks of how FriendFeed has become a ghost town since its acquisition [...]
The Buzz About Google
Google has stepped up their game yet again with today’s introduction of Google Buzz.

It’s built into Gmail, so there’s nothing to sign up for, install or configure. Buzz makes use of [...]
What is Twitter Good For?
Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed An acquaintance of mine, Deb, made an interesting assertion at the [re]Think Hawaii conference last week.

What is Your Favorite Palindrome?
My favorite palindrome is officially: “step on no pets.” What is a palindrome, you might ask?

Are Your Online Friends Real?
My “online” friends are just as awesome as my “offline” friends. Why do some people discount them just because they’re not “in the flesh”?! To me, it doesn’t matter if I ever see someone in person. If we connect on some level, and share similar interests, how are they NOT my friend? Believe me, there [...]
What Happens When you Don’t Follow the Norm?
I’m quite active over at FriendFeed. I find that the more I post and read, the more I learn about people around me.
