Twitter in Google & Bing – a New Reputation Management Headache?
So the deals are done and now the big boys get to play with all of Twitter’s up-to-the-minute data. Google looked like they had to do a spot of positive reputation management of their own – quickly pushing their story in response to a better prepared Microsoft. But now it’s official there’s lots of discussion [...]
For a Long Time
I’ve been trying hard not to write about search or marketing or social media or any of that stuff. And that’s left me hardly writing about anything (especially not here). Although I have been sharing some random things on posterous and my collection of quotes on tumblr is growing steadily, there’s something missing. So I’m [...]

A Few Twitter Things
Apparently, this is the funniest Twitter account so far, according to Mashable… if you rate them. Oh, and God has one too. And while we’re on the subject, I’m normally rambling @Swerveball.
I passed my 1000th tweet without really noticing (although some people like to keep track of these ‘milestones’ I seem to let them pass [...]

Where’s My Scrabulous Gone?
Not ten minutes ago I was playing Scrabulous on Facebook, something I do every now and again to flex my mental muscles, get my head round some general wordiness, and, of course, whup my friends.
I’m sure most people are familiar with the scrabble game that’s taken the FB by storm since the web game was [...]
Wordpress 2.6 Tyner
When did this happen? Well, hey say it’s a month early and it’s also called Tyner.
Seeing as it was so painless to install, I’m quite impressed. But then, I’m not running any fancy stuff, so I guess you should expect that. Now I’ll have to go look under the hood.
Does Stitcher Have It All Sewn Up?
The other day I was idling around the net (as idling is one of my most important pastimes, but more on that later) and I came across an offer to test out Stitcher.
An interesting idea, having some newfangled web service read headlines from TechCrunch or other big and important sites. I can’t remember where I saw [...]
