Ideas for research? - 103 views

Yeah, I don´t like that either. I think partially it is designed that way so that you can reply to any post on in the thread of the forum, rather than just being able to reply to the most recent. ...

The idea would be to Create community. Not community online. The online part is just a potential enhancement. One that does not currently exist here, and perhaps in very few places. The online ...

  • According to recent reports, there have been significant privacy concerns at the Facebook HQ. It seems that Facebook employees get a great perk – spying on whomever they want. It seems that an employee can learn a lot about you, without you ever knowing it. Not only that, but they can see information on whose profile you’ve been looking at. Do you really want that information tracked?
  • Every time you sign up to play Texas Hold’em or hit your friends with rotten pumpkins (if someone makes this app), you’re giving away all of you personal information to these application providers. How often do you when you play games on yahoo, or MSN first give away all of your information? There are even more applications that exist solely to extract your personal data, and to be used for whatever they want.
  • Now, although not a surprise, the latest deal with Microsoft may make the internet a smaller place. Next time you’re searching on the internet and you find yourself being served advertisements for beer when you’re on a random florist website, it may be thanks to your Facebook cookie. When Facebook launches their new “SocialAds” platform on November 6th, it will unleash a network of sites with information not only on your browsing habits, but on all of your personal information.

  • Remember the announcement of an Facebook’s public listing search of users on Google? Announced on September 5th, you will now be able to search on Google, or any other search engine and see the profile picture of one of the 50 million people on Facebook. Thankfully I’ve already opted out of this service, but for those of you who didn’t set your privacy controls, the display picture of you drinking with your buddies may be plastered all over the web for future employers to see.

    This is a really cool bookshelf service.  It has a lot of ajax and a lot of social networking features.  It is entirely based visually around bookcovers.  You can create a widget to put in your website or blog that show your virtual book covers on your virtual bookshelf.  It is really nice looking.  I am interested to hear from Librarything users how they think it compares.

    I created a group called "quorum" in Shelfari. I think it would be interesting for a group of people to start using Diigo, this Shelfari thing (if people like it) and other really cool services and exploit them for all they can do. Right now it seems to me that very few services are actually used for what they can do. Very fragmented...

    You can check out the little widget from shelfari that you can put into your blog or website. It shows my actual bookshelf, virtual book covers on a virtual bookshelf. Pretty neat if you ask me. I like the idea of moving away from straight text as I tend to get texted out on the internet. Scroll down towards the bottom, after the blog posts, where I list all the books I´ve recently read. http://taylorandmore.blogspot.com/ Oh, and here´s my "shelf" on Shelfari, if you´re interested in checking out what it looks like before you sign up. http://www.shelfari.com/bananahandsome/shelf
