Occasionally I get an E Mail from some- one questioning what I add to my website! If they read my About page it might give them some insight but then they couldn’t rag on me. “ Why do you add so many Google features or how come you feature The Bing Blog and the Lijit Search Box! ” I could tell them that Andy Quayle at Tech burgh my web hosting service is a Google Expert and has thru his blog taught me about Google! Lijit is not only a great addition to any website but has the best tech support on the WWW. The Bing Blog is a great read and also a fun search application! I use all my blog features period no favorites! My reblogs are done with Zemanta and I add good stuff with Apture
A Great Read!” SEPTEMBER 7 tags: austin american statesman, posterous, social media by Dave Levy There are some things that will newspapers will always be able to uniquely contribute when it comes to news and information. For a fascinating example, Steve Rubel pointed to a case at the American Statesman down in Austin last week, and it’s worth taking a close look not just because of the technology that Rubel is currently poster-childing. Posterous is a cool idea when it comes to expanding what can be done with the current “its” of social media: lifestreaming and microblogging. Looking in part like a Tumblr blog, it’s controlled through a very low participation barrier. No registration – just e-mail what you want to say and it starts your very own stream. That’s it. There is plenty of customization you can do, but there’s no need. It wins on two of the levels that Twitter did – simplicity and universal access – and that’s probably why Steve has gravitated to it. This post is not about Posterous, though, it’s about what the Statesman is doing with it. The paper is using the tool as a new way to continue what papers have been doing for hundreds of years: …bring the local community together with unique content that relates to them and only them.!” Dave Levy
Video: The Wall of Headlines – The Steve Rubel Lifestream Image representing Edelman as depicted in Crun... Image via CrunchBase How About this New Form Of Communication! “This week we moved into our new offices in New York City. Among the highlights, is a giant wall of headlines. Richard Edelman gives us a tour. There’s something about headlines that still gives me goosebumps. I hope that even in the age of streams, headlines don’t lose their punch. Another noteworthy item in our new offices is a giant HP Touchsmart PC. I had a chance to play with it the other day and will shoot some video to share next week. (HP is an Edelman client.)!” Steve Rubel
Share your Search with Bing and Ping We at the Bing team are firm believers in the idea that the only thing better than searching with Bing is sharing what you’ve found with your friends. That’s why we’ve been working on a potential new feature for Bing that does just that in a couple of clicks, which we call Bing & Ping. Let’s break this down with an example: say you use Bing’s Instant Answers feature to check the score of the game, and you notice that your buddy’s favorite team has just been beaten pretty handily. Say you want to “delicately” remind him of their less-than-stellar moves with the ball. Bing & Ping lets you share this NFL instant answer through various places, like Facebook, Twitter, or even email in as few as two clicks. Reminding someone that their team has no defense has never been easier (in spite of the screenshot below, we of course aren’t talking about our beloved Seahawks).
Let Your Passion Shine Through I have had many discussions recently with people striving to be seen in this overwhelming world of social media. They seem to want to be noticed, but find it difficult to be seen. This caused me to think about what is different and similar between the world of social media and what we experience everyday. I started to think about some of the people that are talked about in social media, such as Guy Kawasaki, Gary Vaynerchuk, Tony Hsieh, Chris Brogan, and even myself. What do these individuals have in common? We are all very different, but we show our passion everyday.
OK, this summer I’ve been to a lot of different places. London. New York. Boulder. Seattle. Hollywood. Los Angeles. Indianapolis. San Antonio. In each place it’s become obvious how much Twitter has taken over the world. In every city it seems like every business is drinking the Twitter koolaide.
WILSON: Legislators Sharing The Sacrifice? || WXYZ.com | WXYZ-TV / Detroit | Detroit News, Weather, Sports and More VN:F [1.6.3_896] Vote Saved. New Rating: 1 Shout out For WXYZ TV “(WXYZ) — While state leaders continue to bicker over how best to deal with Michigan’s budget shortfall, plenty of sacrifices are needed. But our Chief Investigative Reporter Steve Wilson has new information that shows some are sacrificing more than others. WATCH STEVE’S LATEST REPORT IN THE VIDEO PLAYER TO THE RIGHT If you were thinking perhaps our state legislators, the second highest-paid in the country, are out front to experience the same financial sacrifice as most other state employees facing drastic cutbacks and furloughs, think again. Like so many others, Amanda and Paul Tefft are struggling hard to survive the economic crisis in Michigan, even as the couple awaits the birth of their second child expected Christmas Eve, a baby brother for little Natalie who’s just two.!” Contributor: Ross Jones
Steve Rubel does a great How To On Posterous ! “As I mentioned last night, as more of my friends join Posterous and use it as a hub to populate their I am becoming a huge fan of their built in reader. It’s helping me discover all kinds of new, substantive content that is hard to find in Twitter or even multiple blog RSS feeds. Today I found out you can actually subscribe to the Posterous peeps you follow via RSS. Here’s how. First, visit posterous.com/reader in your browser. If you’re using Firefox, Safari or IE, the RSS icon should light up. Then all you need to do is subscribe to that feed. I am wondering if this one day will become my preferred input channel — especially if Posterous becomes as real-time as Friendfeed, Facebook and Twitter. It still feels slow right now, like blogging. Then again, much of the content already finds its way into all three sites. So this might be moot. Still, for now, it’s cool for me. !” Steve Rubel http://blog.posterous.com/
