Too many?
“Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook CEO, came up with the idea for Facebook one day in his dorm room. Perhaps he had snacked on too many magic mushrooms that day, or maybe he tired of watching the same Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reruns and decided to conjure up wild plans for new ways to foster his unsociability. Whatever. Who knows.”
Social Media Predictions
In 2009 marketers will find their accidental spokespeople (employees & customers) and give them ways to amplify their voices. – Rohit Bhargava
Live conversations with consumers, empathetically executed, can have far bigger payout and viral word of mouth impact than most social media tools. – Pete Blackshaw.
We’ll need to do more dot-connecting between existing processes and social media output. We’ll see a flatlining of references to “my Twitter programme” and more references to my offline/online “conversational ecosystem”. – Pete Blackshaw.
Shopping goes social. Using Facebook Connect & Open Social Platform, shoppers will be able to see what friends are recommending, buying and rating integrated into the shopping experience.
Facebook is new television
I agree. Do you?
“Ker je nerazumnost bolj čustveno nabita in zahteva manj znanja, ljudem več pove in jo je lažje požreti. Teorije zarote so kot mamilo, ki gre naravnost v kri in vas “razvestli”. Zdaj se priključite na internet. Ne vbrizgate si, pač pa naložite. Naložite si točno tisto, kar ustreza vsem vašim pristranskim stališčem.” (Yaron Ezrahi).
Facebook je odličen pripomoček.
Are they really your friends?
Back in October there was an article in the New York Times called “Facebook in a Crowd” by Hal Niedzviecki. In the article he describes how he reached out to his almost 700 friends to invite them to a Facebook party. After tabulating the responses Hal had 15 people who said they were attending, 60 that said maybe, a few hundred that said no and no responses from the rest. On the evening of the Facebook party one person (a friend of a friend) showed up to meet him.

Del.icio.us oz. spletna hramba naših bookmarkov. Za ta servis obstaja addon za brkljalnik, ki omogoča tagiranje spletnih strani iz menija na desni mišji klik, kar omoča enako preprostost, kot smo je vajeni pri klasičnem bookmarkanju. Mnoge strani že same ponudijo primerne označbe za določeno spletno stran, tako da je beleženje zaznamkov precej enostavno. Bolje kot označimo vsebino strani, lažje zadevo najdemo. Sam uporabljam klasične označbe pri čemer dodam še TAG slovene, če je stran v slovenskem jeziku in blogroll, če smatram, da stran spada med osebne zaznamke. Vsi ti servisi praviloma omogočajo XML izmenjavo, tako da lahko vsebino shrambe v celoti ali po posameznih TAGih prenesemo kamorkoli. Na blogu ali npr. na Facebooku lahko prikažemo zaznamke blogrool, slovenske strani … ali v celoti. Na podoben način je mogoče povezati tudi druge servise. Kako najpreprosteje dostopati do shrambe bookmarkov? Če imate nameščen addon: SHIFT CTRL . (pika) … s postavitvijo iskalnika ali TAG oblačka na blogu ali preko virtualnega spletnega omizja -> Netvibes.

Nekaj osnov weba dva nula
Blogi so preplavili splet, mnogi pa se zanj še vedno ne odločijo. Zdi se jim brezveze, so preleni, nimajo znanja. Če nimate volje sporočati, lepite slike, rezultate priljubljenih tekem, zbirajte skrinšote priljubljenih igric, rož … blog je univerzalno orodje.
Ponudb za začet je preveč, najdejo pa se rešitve od najpreprostejše do advanced users only.
Blogger. Dobro se poveže z očetom Googlom, kjer nas ima veliko primarni G-email in kjer je še kopica drugih drobnih goodijev, ki nam omogočajo lažje življenje. Blogger je preprosto orodje, prijavite se lahko že z obstoječim Google računom, sporočila in slikice lahko objavljate z mobilnikom, izbirate različne teme, ni reklam. Enostavno, super, vendar omejeno. Za skromno doplačilo pa lahko blog obesite tudi na svojo domeno.
A Day of Safer Internet
Old and young kids use the Internet daily for hours and hours. Some of them exist just on the Internet. A lot of people lead two or more lives/personalities (net life, net friends, etc.) not understanding the principles of globalisation and the Internet.
Today compare to years ago?
Today almost everybody is on the Internet, starting with small kids, housewives up to most advanced users, so called hackers and developers who together build Internet safety and the infrastructure. Governments all over the world are putting a lot of pressure on those people because they are directly connected to personal data of lots of users. This fact puts them into constant fear, dangerous situations and unhuman pressure. Small people have access to servers, routers, infrastructure. The Internet is an open system and millions of pieces of personal data can get out through a single, small system hole, notebooks can be stolen … and there is no law, that can protect us. We have to know how to live with it. We lost the battle for the clean Internet when the Internet was invented.
Social networking sites
If we connect through a social network site, our relationship remains that of a stranger to stranger. We have to be as careful as possible – making real friends is not that easy and this process cannot be changed by a technologial approach. Use social networking service carefully, keep in touch with your real friends, share photos, thoughts and ideas. It is dangerous to have lots of virtual friends all around the world, but none in your basic, primary everyday social network.
There are many traps and risks – the Internet is large, free to all, information are not always good, nice and clean. That makes the Internet the most polluted information channel of mankind. We cannot change this fact, but we can change relations, educate kids how to live healthy, avoid danger and traps.
What is once on the Internet it remains there
The Net is an information junkyard. People are surfing around and using Internet services more and more. The most popular application today is social networking and those sites are affecting the political order of the world.
Internet 2.0 (share as much you can)
Internet revolution or going to 2.0 – global competition, global information exchange. We share our work, intelligence and our minds. Are we being controlled by Google, Microsoft or … by all? You decide.
Information that you produce, you can be shared with Facebook, Microsoft, the government or with God. You have to decide who to trust.
Spread information online, have your 2.0 profile, put yourself on a blog, make presentations online, build a professional network with LinkedIN, be present on Myspace or Facebook, but connect with people that you can trust or use an alter personallity for making new relations. Get to know them better and then bring them into your primary social network.
Forgiveness, faith, love
The world is bad, we are sorrounded by fear and we all can become victims of torture and violence, but no one can kill the faith in a better future.
If you get into trouble, torture mixed with bad emotions, don’t become an EMO, don’t stop. Move on, live and make tomorrow.
