Is social media out of control?
Jan 29, 2009

Delicious/joe.dawson I was on YouTube the other day looking for some dance videos, when I saw my 5yr old dancing her little heart out. I was horrified. Some overly enthusiastic parent had recorded one of the dance sessions from her class and posted it on YT. I don’t know what bothered me more, that I wasn’t asked for permission or the belief th (Read More)

Hutch,

: "Social media is still the wild wild west without any defined rules of engagement and we are changing the rules and making new ones up as we go along. As social media mature and users realize that following or befriending ten thousand strangers doesn’t make our social life any more fulfilling, rational thinking will (hopefully) prevail and we will start taking our privacy that much more seriously."

: Miad, no thanks needed. As a parent of two girls (really - that is irrelevent) privacy needs to be treated very carefully when it is not your own ;) I learned very early on (7 years ago) when I posted some pictures of my first daughter to share with friends that when i searched her name her picture came up. In the wrong hands or if someone is online social profiling you as a prospective employee, photos that are posted without your consent can be damaging. This affects lives. There is a reason why the old adage "Think first - do second" still is a valid mantra to live by - Cheers

TechCrunch So far the downward spiral of credit and financial markets seems to have left venture capital firms and startups relatively unharmed.

: This is ridiculous, why would anyone care what Al Gore tweets about? He is not in government, he is not in the media, he is in the movie business.

I would much rather see more congressional reps. using Twitter. I don't need anymore tweets about environmentally friendly stuff, I already have plenty of them.

Twitter Testing a New Design - Getting Ready to Integrate Summize?
Jul 18, 2008

ReadWriteWeb There have been various sightings of a new design for Twitter this afternoon, though by now, Twitter has reverted back to its old design. Possibly, Twitter is testing this new design as it prepares to integrate Summize's search into its current look. The new design moves the navigation bar away from the top and to the right (Read More)

Twitter vs Plurk
Jun 02, 2008

MEDIAdeluge With all the downtime problems Twitter has been experiencing lately, it could be just a matter of time before there is a mass exodus to another service. My guess is it wouldn’t take much to trigger the exodus — at least among the early-adopting tech crowd. Because the microblogging space is so nascent, a departure of even a (Read More)

: LAME-O! Plurk has decided to forbid people and also highly recommend against the things I find very helpful about Twitter! Twitter does have problems, but one of the things I like about it, is it's ability to connect me with like-minded (ie techie) people. Plurk has no search feature to help me connect, and advises "Only add people who are your good buddies. Don't add people you met for 3 minutes at a party." Dudes! Your missing the point!

: Interesting UI. I'm game to trying new social apps. The problem though is that they don't give me any instant gratification unless I patiently hang out over there and create my friends' network. Hope the recent initiatives like friend connect etc goes mainstream soon.
