Yes, it is a good strategy to implement twitter-ish features. It doesn't mean Facebook is trying to become twitter. It doesn't mean they are trying to destroy twitter. It is acknowledgment that twitter capabilities do seem to fit with the existing functionality and direction of Facebook. - ·[▪_▪]·

The only problem for Facebook is if they don't offer any more functionality than Twitter at some stage. Then the two services are basically equal, and neither has more appeal. Except of course, the fact that Twitter is much more accessible, and plays well with FriendFeed. - Carlton

It's kind of a good idea. They need to stay relevant. But at the same time they need to make sure they don't abandon what drew users to them in the first place: Privacy and very selective life-sharing. - LANjackal

"One of the most anticipated days in the history of social networking site Facebook has finally come: the company announced today that it has begun making status messages, photos and videos visible to the public at large by default instead of being visible only to a user's approved friends." - Stephen Dale via Bookmarklet

Is there not a working version of this? - Brad Williamson

I couldn't find the interactive version. There is just a video and it's saying that we r working on interactive version. (BTW, it's a great map.) - Serkan Unsal

Webtrendmap 4 is going live 14th of July, visit: http://webtrendmap.com/ . Enjoy :) - Hanna Wiszniewska

"To manage your followers or friends on twitter is not an easy task. To be successful on twitter you have to analyze different things. You should know how active your followers are, do they retweet your tweets, do they update regularly and you should know those whom you are following are following you. To manage all above things there are some helpful web based applications. Good news is you don’t have to search for them i have already compiled 30 twitter tools for you to manage followers." - Stephen Dale via Bookmarklet

Really great list. This is just what I was looking for! - William McCamment

very interesting comment - ubalda escorza

I prefer no P2P ;) - Mike Bracco

Frost!! - Francisco Espinoza via BuddyFeed

I'm a bit confused about how they can sell blocks of 1000 followers who also just happen to be interested in your topic. The whole concept of buying and selling followers seems so silly and contradictory to the purpose of Twitter altogether. - LuluGirl896 via BuddyFeed

While quaint, it is still nice to receive "real" thank you cards, notes, invitations and letters. :) - Gil Francisco III via Bookmarklet

i like stationery. cards, papers, pens, pencils and handwriting.. i hope we ll never forget them. :o) - Fırat DEMİREL

Looks great! - orionstarr via iPhone

Still needs calendaring support before I'll look at it. Thunderbird isn't great but at least it has a calendaring plug-in that works well. - Noah White

Noah: I hear what you're saying about the calendaring...they're still in beta, so hopefully they'll incorporate it :o) - But pretty awesome client!! - Aline Ohannessian

I think there's some time before burglars in India get Tech Savvy... but it just may be a valid concern. - Parth Awasthi

As an InfoSec guy, this is just a variation on a very old enterprise business concern. Auto-vacation email replies have posed the problem for years and are studiously avoided by many organizations. Why broadcast that you're away in that way if not necessary. - Ken Camp

there goes vacation blogging. - David Parmet

Recommended by people on the west coast. - Darren Chun

Three words: it's about time. - Thomas Ward via Bookmarklet

I started on facebook BECAUSE of the privacy controls. I dont want to have some troll telling me that I am stupid or something on my pages. - James Hague
