StumbleUpon has officially landed in the Google Chrome Extensions Gallery, but I’ve got to say — it’s just not the same as its counterpart on other browsers.
In fact, it’s little more than the browser-independent toolbar you see on the top of links shortened and shared with their su.pr service. It does tie in to your [...]
It seems, within the last few minutes, Facebook has started to roll out QR barcodes on profile pages. I don’t mean your drunken and/or emo profile photos have been replaced by an ugly barcode — I mean you can generate barcodes to be used by your smartphone. You can now generate either a personal barcode [...]
To kick off his keynote at SXSW, Evan Williams, Twitter’s CEO, announced the @anywhere platform.
This platform will allow site owners to integrate Twitter information and features directly into their sites. For example, a blog with @anywhere integration would allow a user to hover over the blogger’s name to pop up a Twitter box where [...]
Remember those sites that purported to tell you what your website is worth? Just type in a domain name, and out popped an impressive-sounding number that wasn’t worth the pixels it was rendered with. Well, now we have the same thing for Twitter. It’s called TweetValue.
If you were wondering about the validity of the dollar [...]
The folks over at Delicious have been fairly active recently. A month ago they added filtering and browsing features, and yesterday they released a couple of new changes. Well, one is not that new actually — more of a comeback, but it’s still cool (or hot, as the case may be).

It’s been a little while since Facebook launched their (admittedly barebones) application for Palm’s webOS devices — that’s the Pre and Pixi to you and I. However, in amongst the news of the webOS 1.4 update dropping earlier this week, Facebook have also released an all-new version of the application that adds a number of [...]
Welcome to the first Twitter Tuesday of March! There’s plenty to talk about this week, including the big news that Twitter is finally ready to slip a little advertising into your stream. If you’ve been wondering when the Big T was going to start chasing a profit, you’re about to get an answer. We’ll talk [...]
Nothing sets off a good round of speculation like a vague, tantalizing tweet from a developer. Twitter’s Alex Payne (aka @al3x) set a small fire in the tech blogosphere (does anyone still call it that?) when he let slip the following delicious tidbit on Saturday afternoon:

Between December 2008 and 2009, the total time spent on social networks rose by a massive 82% — from an average of three hours a month, to almost six! To nerds like you and I, six hours doesn’t sound like a huge amount, but when you figure in the ‘casuals’ that bring the average down [...]
Meebo has finally released its long-awaited all-in-one native iPhone IM client [iTunes link], and it looks like the wait was worth it. Until now I would have said that Beejive IM held the title of best instant messaging client on the iPhone, but Meebo’s speed and usability moves it solidly ahead of Beejive.
