oneforty Creates The Ultimate Twitter App Store. Take That Apple!
It was inevitable. Someone was just going to put it together. Well someone did. Laura Fitton, author of the incredible book Twitter for Dummies has put together an incredible directory that lets the Twitter community “discover and share tools and services that make Twitter valuable”. No longer are you stuck with simply sitting there and wondering […]
Keeping An Eye Out For Those Tricky Twitter Spammers.
After reading a post on Los Angeles blog, lalawag, I thought it would be insightful to put something together myself. A while back I wrote a post commenting on how the number of people following you on Twitter were rather irrelevant and I still stand by it – although everyone’s ego is always getting the […]
Let’s Face It: We Don’t Know How To Optimize This Traffic.
Everything related to campaigns and marketing programs are all required to answer the one crucial question: What is the return on investment (ROI)? What does this mean?

Testing The Theory That Social Media Isn’t A “Field”.
Last Thursday, at an event called Lunch for Good, I was talking to Susan Tenby who informed me about an interesting debate she was having with someone on Twitter where the core issue being discussed was whether or not social media, in all its glory, actually constituted being considered a “field”. Is it more than […]

Twitter activity originally started through Lijit’s own Micah Baldwin to help connect Twitterers. For this week’s selection, to honor those who were affected by the tragedies of September 11 eight years ago, I present this list of some of […]
Shrinking The Size of the Web into Facebook.
The web is a vast array of websites, social networks, applications and many other things. Quite simply, it’s like a gigantic solar system with planets being websites interspersed with comets, asteroids and an occasional sun. But all of that has pretty much changed with Facebook. Sure, Facebook isn’t the first social network out there, nor […]
Brizzly: Taking Twitter To The Browser In Real-Time.
Yet another Twitter client? Yeah, it seems to be. Aren’t we sick of hearing about the next version of Tweetdeck or Seesmic Desktop? First we had Twhirl, then came Tweetdeck, Seesmic Desktop, Destroy Twitter, Cotweets, PeopleBrowsr and other Twitter third-party desktop and web applications. So when I heard all the “hype” about Brizzly, I thought […]
5 Apps That We Can’t Live Without
This past week has been a weird one in terms of technology. First, there was some issues (perhaps residual) from Twitter’s downtime and then Google had issues with Gmail being down for at least a day and Foursquare having trouble yesterday and now WordPress is reporting a major security issue with its self-hosted option.
