Although the perspective focuses on Delicious, the message is clear; Bookmarking has more value when you use a tool that saves your bookmarks out to a website where they can be accessed or shared from any computer to any computer or user… My favorite tool of this sort is called ‘FriendFeed’. Here’s a little on [...]

In December of last year, I embarked upon an experiment to see if I could leverage a website with a blog combined with social media tools to increase traffic to a site. In that month, my sandbox site had a grand total of 670 pageviews. In the month that ended yesterday, I had a total [...]
Testing ‘Google Recommended Reading’…
Posted on April 16, 2011 by Todd Lohenry in Blogging, Content Management, Social Media, Technology, Thoughts

With new Facebook Groups, FriendFeed’s gone mainstream. Two years late.
Posted on October 8, 2010 by Todd Lohenry in Facebook, Just in case
Image via CrunchBase What’s really striking about the new Facebook Groups is that they truly are “FriendFeed gone mainstream”.
