  • PhotoLooney: Do you Twitter?
    An enthusiastic article about Twitter usage. With an interesting view on what the goal of Twitter is…

    Quote : "You sign up for free - then the goal is to have other Twitterers 'follow' you."

    With this in mind I feel that this article provides a good roundup of what RSS can do for you. If you are new to using RSS, or have often wondered what that orange icon is all about then I highly recommend 30 Different Uses for RSS by Michael Fruchter.

    I’m making an effort to become less reliant on visiting websites for the data I need. Spending a majority of my time in Google Reader, I decided RSS could help me accomplish this task. I no longer have to visit Yahoo to read my horoscopes or sports scores. I now track my Ebay auctions from Google Reader. These are some of the ways I started to recently use and rediscover RSS.

    Real and Fake iPhone, originally uploaded by Robert Scoble.

     

    Unfortunately Apple have not released an iPhone Nano. This is a fake iPhone that you can get in China, as spotted by Robert Scoble during his current trip to China.

    DSC_2672_1, originally uploaded by garrett_ryan_smith.

     

    This is an incredible milestone for the Flickr community.

    While this photo may not be everyones’ cup of tea I do think could be thought as symbolic and rather apt.

    I do wonder what Flickr staff would have decided to do if the 3 billionth photo was deemed too risqué. Perhaps it was and this is actually the three billion and first upload to the photo sharing website.

    Either way, congratulations to the Flickr founders and the people who take so many wonderful images.
