FriendFeed Gets Personal and More Manageable
via SheGeeks by Corvida on June 06, 2008

If you haven’t, the filter tracks the most shared items within your FriendFeed network? Personalized recommendations is an expansion on that same concept. So, instead of seeing what the most popular shared items are,...

Add Google Reader, Techmeme, and TechCrunch Tabs to FriendFeed
via TechCrunch by Erick Schonfeld on June 04, 2008
Who knew Duncan Riley was such a Greasemonkey? My former colleague just made FriendFeed a lot more useful for people on Firefox. Using Greasemonkey, an add-on to Firefox that lets developers customize Webpages through the browser, he created some scripts that add tabs to FriendFeed that make it even more of a super start page than it already is. He got the idea from this app called...

Five Tools I Use for Listening
via chrisbrogan.com by chrisbrogan on June 15, 2008
As part of the social media strategy series, I thought I’d start with listening. Social media tools are a great way to get the word out about your passions, your interests, the company’s latest products, but we tend to rush right into the “speaking” side of the toolbox without giving much thought to the “listening” part. Knowing what people are saying about you, your competitors, and...

One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish
via The Official Google Blog by A Googler on June 07, 2008
Posted by Marissa Mayer, VP Search Products & User Experience, and Micheal Lopez, Web DesignerYou may have noticed that Google has a new favicon, the small icon you see in your browser next to the URL or in your bookmarks list. Some people have wondered why we changed our favicon -- after all, we hadn't in 8.5 years(!). The reason is that we wanted to develop a set of icons that would scale...

via Valleywag by Owen Thomas on June 06, 2008
Google has introduced Gmail Labs, a digital playground for Googlers to develop new features for Gmail in their spare time. It's a well-staged PR event, a timely effort to remind the press — and through them, potential hires — that Google lets engineers spend 20 percent of their time on side projects. Gmail Labs, though, is a sign of how 20 percent time as early Googlers knew it is...
