06 Nov 09 TweepML: Twittter Lists Made Easy

I made a little discovery today that might be useful to some…Someone added me to a VIP list at TweepML. To use this site’s own sales pitch: “TweepMLis an extensible, open standard format that allows you to manage and share groups of Twitter users.”  You can create your own lists by entering a twitter username in the ‘enter twitter users’ field on the ‘create a list page’.  You can also enter the twitter list URLs and generate super lists (like the example below). You can also follow all members of a Twitter List directly instead of following the list itself, or use find lists of interest.  All in all, a very useful list management tool.

25 Jun 09 Microsoft drives nails in its own coffin

Does the release of products like Windows Vista, Office 2007 and Internet Explorer 8 represent a massive blunder for Microsoft, or do the new innovations included in these software packages represent the way forward?  It might all depend on who you ask.   Users who have not spent a great deal of time using previous versions of Microsoft software may well like the new versions.  There are surely some new features which can be quite cool such as very nifty formatting effects.  Users who have become familiar with previous versions over the years are coming to quite different conclusions.  I am in the latter group and Microsoft’s new line is certainly not getting an A from me.
