Facebook Takes on Google Reader: Who Said RSS is Dead?
I’ve been playing around with Facebook. Both how to promote brands on Facebook as well as how users consume content within the walled garden (hint: there’s a direct correlation between the two). As blogs and media networks extend their reach using Facebook Pages, I noticed something interesting: Facebook can be used as an RSS reader. [...]
Pandora Makes Music Sharing on Twitter and Facebook Easier but not Music Blogging
Image by SqueegyX via Flickr I’ve had a music blog (kind of) for a while now – Wall-Notes. I say kind of because it’s a pretty effortless blog. And honestly it’s more like a link blog. When I listen to music in Pandora I figured out that there’s an RSS feed for the songs and [...]
FriendFeed as Group RSS Reader [All Things M]
Image via CrunchBase One of the things I love about FriendFeed is it’s versatility. Yes I know FriendFeed was acquired by Facebook and some are dooming it to extinction and I also realize thatsome people believe “RSS is dead.” Whatevs. I love FriendFeed and I love RSS even more. If I were kip I’d write [...]
Why Would You NOT Blog?
Image by Tac Anderson via Flickr Following yesterday’s post (and months of posts really) about how easy Posterous makes blogging, why would you NOT blog? Seriously it’s so freaking easy? If sending an email is too tough, check out Tumblr. Pulling an RSS feed doesn’t get any easier. Check out my music blog http://tacanderson.tumblr.com/. The [...]
Top 10 Blog Posts [May 2009] FriendFeed Steals the Show
Peter Kim has been doing a monthly top post recap for a while now. I like this approach and decided to steal this idea and remix it a little. He does it for convenience if anyone missed any of his posts. I like it for different reasons. It’s a simple way to show you what [...]
FriendFeed is Reaching Critical Mass
Image via CrunchBase Three months ago, while some were proclaiming that the Twitter shark had been jumped, I made the statement that Microblogging was about to go Supernova. Three months ago doesn’t seem like that long ago but in the real-time Web that was eons ago. Real-time content is all the rage right now and [...]
Enterprise 2.0 Needs a FriendFeed
Image by Tac Anderson via Flickr We have dozens of Twitter-like, microblogging applications for inside the enterprise but where’s the LifeStreaming applications? If there is one already, I’m not aware of it. Where is the Enterprise 2.0 version of FriendFeed? Where is the app that captures my work progress? Every time I create a document, [...]
What Makes for a Well Balanced Media Diet?
Image via Wikipedia What Makes for a Well Balanced Media Diet? Farhad Manjoo over at Slate really kicked up a storm in a tea cup 2 weeks ago (wow, that was a really bad mixed metaphor) with his Kill Your RSS Reader post. Mashable covered it and did a poll of their users use of [...]
Will RSS Ever Go Mainstream?
Image by Tac Anderson via Flickr Will RSS Ever Go Mainstream? One of my proudest moments at Highway 12 Ventures was when Mark Solon was demonstrating how he subscribed to RSS feeds in his feed reader to his partners. But even as new people adopt RSS I keep hearing rumblings that some people are abandoning [...]
Why You Should Use Favorites in Twitter
I’m a big fan of using the favorite feature in Twitter. (Here’s my favorite’s page. You can also subscribe to the RSS feed) Why? Well to be honest I mostly use it like a bookmarking feature. I do the same thing with Google Reader’s Star feature. If I like something and want to share it [...]
