Mashable’s 2009 Open Web Awards is still open for nominations. Nominations started on October 14, 2009 and last until November 15, 2009. Voting is from November 18th – December 13th, 2009. Winner Announcements will be on Tuesday, December 15th, 2009.
You can nominate people/companies for various different categories ranging from:
There is so much going on with Twitter. Links, trends, topics and more but how do you keep up? Here is a list of sites that can be used for searching Twitter friends, tweets and much more.
NOTE: This also includes the sites I previously listed in the blog “28 sites to help you search Twitter and more”
Here is a list of Twitter badges, buttons, counters & widgets:
Have you noticed that the more and more we use Twitter the more and more new tools & sites show up? There’s so many of these sites & tools popping up that sometimes it’s hard to keep up with what’s out there.
If you are asking what is LinkedIn or have been with LinkedIn for awhile this video/blog is for you.
Back in early March CNN held an interview with the CEO of LinkedIn. Reid Hoffman answered questions on how to use LinkedIn. Notice that in the video there is a comment that FaceBook is not something you should use at work.
This is just my two cents so take it as you may.
Before you write a blog or post a comment do you step back and think who might see it?
Have you logged into Twitter recently? If you login today you will notice a new box with a link to widgets/twitter search. It even gives you a definition of what they are if you don’t already know. I have a feeling that this is just a test and pretty soon we will see “Advertise Here” links. My only wish is that they do not start having pop-ups. I personally am not a fan of popups.
We are all searching for something almost 90% of the time. Either we are searching for our next job, an old friend, new gossip, etc. Even though we are all searching for different things we can all use the same tools to find what we need/want.
This is just my two cents so take it as you may.
I haven’t written a blog that focuses on just Twitter but due to the extreme number of tweets I’ve seen since yesterday I thought this was needed. Since yesterday there has been many tweets about a site called tweetgreeter. I am in no way recommending the site since I think it’s a joke. The point of the site is to just add followers as fast as you can.
