The Google Plus 1 Tab looks a lot like Stumble Upon

The Google Plus 1 Tab looks a lot like Stumble Upon

By Dan Morrill on September 30, 2011

Should Stumble Upon worry about Google Plus? One of the things I really do like about Google Plus is that it has the plus one list so I can keep track of what I am plussing. It does not mean I had to make this public, if anything you have to consciously click a button […]

I am not sorry that Digg is slowly dying

I am not sorry that Digg is slowly dying

By Dan Morrill on March 20, 2011

Digg has always been problematic for me, and watching it slowly fade away in favor of other systems like Facebook, Twitter, even Reddit has its advantages. While Louis Gray points out that Digg seemed to peak in 2007, about the time the AACS and DMCA takedown happened, Digg really faltered after that event, and never […]

Mafia Sourcing – How Insiders Game User Generated News for Money

Mafia Sourcing – How Insiders Game User Generated News for Money

By Mark Suster on September 1, 2010

The Web.  Open, democratic, leveling, freeing information from closed networks.  The wisdom of the crowds. Or so it seems. I originally came from the entreprise software world (for 10 years) and before that I was in mobile & telecoms (8 years) so the last three years of immersing myself in consumer Internet, digital media & […]

Why Technical Communicators will need a Enterprise 2.0 Content Curation Strategy

Why Technical Communicators will need a Enterprise 2.0 Content Curation Strategy

By Mark Fidelman on May 26, 2010

Ever wonder how Wikipedia maintains such a high degree of quality material on any given subject?  They have an army of unpaid content curators.   They also have you.  The all-volunteer team of curators is constantly checking new submissions to ensure they meet  the rules that Wikipedia established that were designed to prevent self-promotion, that articles […]

Why I Quit Reddit – Actually, Reddit Quit Me

Why I Quit Reddit – Actually, Reddit Quit Me

By Zoli Erdos on March 4, 2010

Three years ago I was quite active on Reddit – at least for a while, until I realized just how manipulated it became. I’m not really holding it against reddit, the same happens on Digg and probably on all similar sites – nothing new here, you’ve probably read all this a thousand times, so I […]

Digg needs Transparency not a new Candy Coating

Digg needs Transparency not a new Candy Coating

By Dan Morrill on February 4, 2010

That is great that Digg wants to redesign their web site and do cool stuff like making it more social. The problem with Digg is not that it is a bad system technologically; it is that it is impossible to get traction on the web site for some users because the way that the community […]

OAuth Beginning to Rock the World

OAuth Beginning to Rock the World

By Ben Kepes on October 21, 2009

OAuth, or Open Authentication is “an open protocol to allow secure API authorization in a simple and standard method from desktop and web applications”. Basically it’s a way to allow one web application to utilize another without the need for users to worry about pesky authentication keys or the like. It also allows for data […]

The Problem with URL Shorteners: ow.ly Server Errors

The Problem with URL Shorteners: ow.ly Server Errors

By Guest Authors on April 14, 2009

If you currently click on a ow.ly shortened URL you will be shown a server error page at ow.ly – not the URL you or the publisher intended you to see. Proponents of these services have so far ignored the main problem; trusting a third party. I guess they see the problem now when potential visitors to their […]

WeFollow – the Echo Chamber Gets Louder

By Ben Kepes on March 15, 2009

Digg founder and (so it would seem) tech heartthrob Kevin Rose has launched another service that looks set to set the world on fire. Kevin obviously ignored (or was too busy Twittering to hear) Tim O’Reilly’s recent plea to “build stuff that matters” and has instead developed WeFollow. WeFollow is a service where by Twitter […]
