Definitely needs something stronger than "like." - Jared Smith

lol - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

diigo for bookmarking. - Tim Hoeck

:) justa wait a week you'll have a new addition - Bryan Thatcher from twhirl

I don't see why everybody is sleepin' on Diigo - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah

Kwippy, Propeller, and Social Median should be added to the list, but Great job Chris! - Richard Kannegieser

There are 10,974,601 apps I could add. That's where YOU come in. : ) - Chris Brogan

Thanks for the great list. I think I'll use about 3 of them. - Ricardo Rabago

Agree on Diigo. Great site, we use it to share info across management team. - Mike Troiano

Hi Chris, thanks for this aggregation, useful. But, what about adding an emerging category named Social Search? Xoost would fit into it. cheers, Felix - Xoost.com

Thanks, great list, but I wonder should Posterous be in microblogging category? It's more like usual blogging service... And +1 for Diigo =) - Anton

perhaps instapaper, alexa, sitemeter, picasa, rssmeme ? - Hayk H.

Awesome list. A relatively new kid on the block: http://www.addictomatic.com - great tool for listening quickly. - Neil Williams

Great list but techmeme.com needs to be on here! Also rememberthemilk.com is a fun way to keep track of todos. - Rich Casey

Socialthing! is a cooler alternative to feedfriend http://socialthing.com - skinflakes

Oooh, nice Kenneth! I knew coffee was on the 'good' list again, but some of those were new to me. Pretty much affirms my dietary regimen: if humans have been eating or drinking it 1000, it's probably not going to kill me. =) - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

If I drank coffee, I would too. The iPod Touch is good, because it is an instant on device and you can get to the internet as soon as you open your eyes - RAPatton

RAPatton, it's probably better I don't have internet access in the bedroom. Would only make insomnia that much more likely... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

thx - Mary Anne Davis

And this is a good reason to keep UAC turned on :) - Soulhuntre from twhirl

And a reason to be very wary of url-shorteners; the obfuscation of the ultimate url can be a real problem. I use tinyurl's preview feature, which doesn't redirect you directly to the new url...it instead takes you to a page which shows the real link. But I'm not sure all these new shortener sites have the same option. - Ken Kennedy

wowowow. And smyrna, the OpenGL browser. - ɐ ɯıʞ sıɹɥɔ

i KNOW! And the best part? It's F-R-E-E - Mona Nomura

yep the price is right. wonder what they've got up their sleeves? Not like them to be giving away stuff. - ɐ ɯıʞ sıɹɥɔ

Perhaps they're trying to take over the internet....? Just saying ;) - Mona Nomura

A picture of the internet! I became frightened looking at it but I don't know why. Subliminal intertubal communications conduit? - Mattb4rd

Wow! Good share. Did anyone else load the PDF (http://www.research.att.com/areas...)? Overwhelming... - Czar

When Joshua finds the launch codes, he's going to launch the missiles! - Akiva Moskovitz

Love it! Anyone else think this looks like a telescopic photograph of a distant galaxy, kind of like how galactic threads look like DNA helixes (helices?). - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Zoomed out it looks like a huge brain! - Richard Kannegieser from twhirl

Neat. Stanford has an older b&w version on the 4th or 5th floor in the Computer Science building. It's neat to look at a 3-4' version and trace IP addresses. Not sure about this version, but the Stanford one says that they left out 25-50% of the smaller nodes (otherwise the map would be totally unreadable). - Mitchell Tsai

For some reason I can't see the secret NSA listening rooms they set up.... - Jonathon

I can see my home network from here! - Jemm

Joni: LOL!! - Mona Nomura

after a quick glance it reminds me of ping.fm. I'm off to sign up and check it out! - Richard Kannegieser from twhirl

can i have a tool to manage my tools please ! - Murali

Good problem to attempt solving. Every profile need not have all fields (need a way to turn off some fields), need for profile groups. On second thoughts isn't it simpler to point to a web site url after some standard about me text? :-) - arunram from twhirl

I'd like to see this as an air app on the desktop. Seems like a lot of passwords to give to one service. - Shawn McCollum

seems like a neat idea but its too damn slow. Arrgh! - Rahul Das

Optics rule. - Raphael, Raphael

wow! - Anna Haro

Very cool! - Jonathan.Rivera

that's cool! - Oli Kenobi

incredible!! - Susan Beebe

fun, but is it really a good idea to put optical illusions in a parking garage? - Robin Barooah

Plurk was nice for a while but as my number of friends rose, it just became plain unusable (104 friends, almost all of them very active) - Jon Limjap from twhirl

yeah the amount of unread messages becomes too high and there is no way to read all of them. But the mute feature does help on threads you don't want to read. - Rahul Das

I can't spell at all - which is why I'm thankful that there's a firefox plugin to spell check all the stuff on type online.... - George Smith

It usually takes me ages to translate my nieces FB pm's to me, I suck at txt speaka :( - Sally Church

Spelling? Try basic math as a potential problem for our youth... the downside of technology is the absolute reliance on it. - Scott Goldblatt

that's what's known as the myspacing of facebook - Cee Bee

Scott, show me a white collar job that doesn't have these tools readily at hand. I think the most important skills to teach is "How to self-learn" as they have so much info at hand. The second is understanding how to filter value from crap. - Jeremiah Owyang

Jeremiah thats definatly the biggest part is How to self-learn. We have unlimited knowledge at our fingertips, but with out the interest or initiative to learn it does no good. - Richard Kannegieser

Absolutely agree with you Jeremiah re: "self-learning". What I am leaning towards is that while these tools are most certainly readily available, the basic skills like grammar, spelling, addition and subtraction (certainly not all inclusive in this list) might be a lost art. Our absolute reliance on technology has changed society - for the good. Alas the times have changed and you certainly responded to friendfeed before you responded to the smoke signal I sent earlier :) - Scott Goldblatt

Richard - You hit the nail on the head. How do we battle disinterest? - Scott Goldblatt

~15 years ago I was hanging out with the daughter of a friend (age 4). She could spell the long dinosaur names but not simple words. The spelling checker fixed those words for her. It was hilarious and so very cute to watch her type away. Calculators have done away with the need for long division (and square/cube roots). Why is spelling necessary? - Mitchell Tsai

it's too late. i was a lab aide for a high school few years back and one kids tried to turn in a paper with some internet leet speak in it... sad thing was he didn't know the difference. it's happening more and more - Caroline from twhirl

Good list, Chris. I would add: get your co-workers/employees involved and participating on at least one of the three SNS you picked. Good example: Zappos. http://twitter.zappos.com/ - Hao Chen

@Hao Chen - great point. I mentioned having a few folks jump in as backups, but you're right. Having a group visit a social network is a good point, too. - Chris Brogan

Kudos on the book... On time and immensely valuable. - Charles Heflin

Great video you look fantastic. Interesting how the reporter got many of the URLs wrong. - Jeremiah Owyang

Can everyone please just read this book. I'm so sick of hearing, "I don't get social media." :-D We're starting to give it away. - Michael Chin

I have been recommending it to people who call me and ask, do you think I should "get into" social media - Kami Huyse

thx for direct link - Steaprok

maybe Brian was trying to generate some sphinn's. - Joseph Rodgers

@maki thanx for direct link. - Barbara K. Baker

Um, yeah, that was the point... sphinn helps people on sphinn see this article too... that's why it's good to sphinn it. FF isn't enough for me... I like to get salient news from multiple sources. I suppose it would be different if techcrunch had a sphinn button, but as far as I can tell, there's no place to do that from the blog post, not even in the "share" pop-up. And that's pretty much the only news voting service or bookmarking service I use right now, so it's important to me. - Brian Carter

Brian, I know you want more votes for your submission but I still feel its annoying for non-users to have to click twice to get to the article. Seeing that there's zero value-added discussion on Sphinn, its virtually a useless interstitial for those who aren't Sphinn users. Just my two cents... - Maki

Yikes, sorry guys, didn't realize it was such a breech of etiquette here. Noted and changing behavior! :-) - Brian Carter
