How One Would-be Web Friend Turned Into a Stalker In Months
Aug 04, 2008

louisgray.com In advance, my use of the word "stalker" is not intended to belittle any real-life stalking issues that are much more serious.I tend to view the Web and the interactions I have with people online optimistically, trusting first and dismissing only after repeat offenses through odd comments or bad behavior. As Cyndy's article (Read More)

: "In His Sights"
I just pre-ordered this book on amazon. It’s fascinating because its true. Obsession to the point where the hunted has to change her life, and it becomes her obsession to have a life that he cannot see. I will write a review, it should arrive August 5th.

In this day and age of Google, no one is hidden anymore. With every keystroke you are leaving a path to your door. How can we protect ourselves? And are we our worst enemy?
From the book:
“What if the man you’d loved for years vows, when you leave him, to destroy you? What if he transforms into a ruthless tormentor, stealing your freedom, undermining your sanity, and threatening your safety?
This is not a fictional scenario. It is Kate Brennan’s life.”

: Great Ideas, All of them. I'm still going to send a couple suggestion in an Email, only because they need a bit more thought, and will come with possible solutions. I would have already sent it, but, I was in meetings this afternoon and still have some catching up to do . Besides, I've got stories to clip. One little thing I can mention. I'm starting to feel like an orphanage for abandoned networks. I try to throw some stories in them whenever I find something relevant, but I feel like some of their owners might not be coming back. Have you had time to think about abandoned accounts. A couple I wouldn't mind taking over. I know this is low priority, and I would be disappointed to see you waste time on this right now. I read your blog and I had a feeling you might be working with a small team,but that would be an understatement. I'm am truly impressed at how much you've accomplished. Just like with Twitter, less is more. I don't remember your assistants name, but I'm sure he deserves credit also.

Real People Don't Have Time for Social Media
Apr 16, 2008

ReadWriteWeb Let's be honest here: we're all a bunch of social media addicts. We're junkies. Whether it's a new Twitter app, a new Facebook feature, or a new social anything service, we're all over it. But we may not be the norm. The truth is, being involved in social media takes time, something that most people don't have a lot of. So (Read More)

: This is definately a consideration when trying to budget your time online. With websites to manage, forums to moderate and blogs to write, social sites like Twitter and Friendfeed can steal time from more productive activities.

Computerworld - Why the epic fail at Twitter.com will be a major win
Aug 04, 2008

Submitted by Infodiva: Twitter is broken, but that's okay -- every time it breaks, it makes news. Every time it makes news, it squeezes out the competition and makes them look like a pale imitation. Even sites like Plurk just can't keep pace with the Twitter surge: 12 million users and counting. (Read More)

: Yes, that seems to be an error on their part. You can click "share" to share stories on socialmedian on to twitter, but we do not yet have the ability for you to get socialmedian updates tweet'd to you automatically. I do send several tweets per day with popular stories and discussions on socialmedian, but that's manual not automated.

Also, I don't really get that socialmedian is a "Twitter-like" online community?

Isthisstupid,

: Um, SocialMedian is in no way "Twitter-like". Completely different design, user-interface, target market, use intent, not to mention it's up every time I come by. There is, however, the equivalent of an SM fail whale: try editing one of your comments.

» Social Media and Self Importance: Are You Signal or Noise?

: I would venture to say that what is noise to one may in fact be signal to another: personally, I get tired of slogging through all the tech feeds to find the 5% that are useful for work and perhaps 5% that interest me personally. But then again, that's what I've got Yahoo pipes for: to help me filter the noise before it ever gets to me. Don't see why one couldn't go the same route to filter, say, an unwanted Twitter follower.

@nigelwalsh
@isthisstupid Merge them and filter them when you do! I like the notion of a signal to noise ratio, and I also remember not to pigeon hole. Some fool might be mostly noisy (mostly cloudy?), but as the good Bard has helped us to know: often the fool says the most profound thing.

It's possible that the one signal from a noisy "friend" might surpass the many signals from a guru.

Keep having fun!
