| Texas Launches Antitrust Investigation of Google Posted: 03 Sep 2010 08:17 PM PDT      It has been revealed that the office of Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott is conduction an investigation of Google over complaints of antitrust and anti-competitive behavior, and the search giant is responding. According to Search Engine Land, the state of Texas’ investigation is focused on whether Google manipulates its search results to the detriment of its competition. The investigation was sparked by complaints from vertical search engines Foundem, SourceTool/TradeComet and myTriggers. While none of these companies operate out of the state of Texas, they only need customers in the state to help spark an investigation. Google has since responded to the report via a blog post from Deputy General Counsel Don Harrison. In it, Harrison addresses the questions about the “fairness” of the Google search engine while providing background on Foundem, SourceTool/TradeComet and MyTriggers. This background refutes each company’s argument that Google is engaging in anticompetitive behavior. “We look forward to answering their questions because we're confident that Google operates in the best interests of our users,” Harrison said in the company’s response. Google is facing a similar investigation from the European Commission over whether it manipulates search results to stifle competition. What do you think of the investigation? Do you think Google is engaging in antitrust behavior, or is this smoke and mirrors? Let us know in the comments.

| Google Voice Narrowly Defeats Skype in Reader Vote Posted: 03 Sep 2010 07:22 PM PDT   This week’s Web Faceoff between Skype and Google Voice came down to the wire. Last week, Google stepped onto Skype’s turf with the launch of Google Voice integration in Gmail. Since its launch, Gmail users have made over 10 million calls through the new Google Voice integration. Is Google Voice a threat to Skype’s longstanding dominance? On Monday we asked you, the readers, to choose which voice service you preferred. After the closest vote in the history of the Web Faceoff… …Google Voice is the winner by just 20 votes. With 1,438 votes (42.87%), Google’s voice service beat Skype’s 1,418 tallies (42.28%). That’s barely more than a half-percent difference. 498 of you (14.85%) voted that it was a tie. One of the big issues with Google Voice many commenters pointed out was that it’s only available in the U.S., while Skype is worldwide. Perhaps this is a debate we’ll have to revisit when Google’s offering is in the hands of the rest of the world. Let us know what you think of this week’s poll results in the comments.

| Ping Surpasses 1 Million Users Posted: 03 Sep 2010 05:20 PM PDT   In less than two days, Apple’s Ping music social network has surpassed the 1 million user milestone. Apple introduced Ping as the centerpiece of iTunes 10 at its music event earlier this week. It is a music-centric social network where users can follow updates from both their friends and their favorite music artists. It includes custom song and album charts, a news feed and 17,000+ concert listings. Ping has had a rocky road since its launch late on Wednesday. Apple’s social network has been hit with comment spam and international availability issues. The company’s in up-and-down talks with Facebook over integrations and API use. It’s also received lackluster reviews from the media. However, that hasn’t stopped droves of people from trying out the iTunes-based social network. Apple says that 1/3 of users that have downloaded iTunes 10 have joined Ping. Should we be surprised, though? More than 160 million people have iTunes, and curiosity is always at a high after an Apple event. However, while Ping may have 1 million registered users, that doesn’t mean they’ll still be using the social network three months from now. That is the numbers we’ll be interested in, because it is what will determine the fate of Ping as a service.

| Google Settles Buzz Privacy Lawsuit for $8.5 Million Posted: 03 Sep 2010 04:07 PM PDT   Google has agreed to pay a hefty sum to make a class action lawsuit concerning Google Buzz disappear — $8.5 million, to be exact. The lawsuit dates back to February, when lawyers filed a class action complaint against Google on behalf of Eva Hibnick, a 24-year-old Florida resident and Harvard Law School student. The complaint alleged that Buzz violated several communication privacy laws related to protecting user privacy. Google Buzz caught a lot of flak for its auto-follow and opt-in features, so much so that Google quickly made privacy fixes after launch. They weren’t enough to quell the criticism though, so Google launched a privacy reset for Buzz, giving users a new opportunity to adjust their privacy settings. According to the settlement, these changes addressed the key privacy issues surrounding Buzz. “Google has made changes to the Google Buzz user interface that clarify Google Buzz’s operation and users’ options regarding Google Buzz,” it stated. That’s not all, though. While the settlement acknowledges that Google Buzz’s privacy issues have been resolved, it says the company must do more to educate users about Google Buzz’s potential impact on privacy. The $8.5 million from the settelement will go towards lawyer fees (30%) and the seven named plaintiffs (up to $2,500 each), with the remainder going towards organizations and non-profits focused on Internet privacy. Now that the privacy issues have been settled, Google can focus on a more important problem: actually producing a winner in the social media space.

| Better Manage Your Small Business’s Social Media Presence [APPS] Posted: 03 Sep 2010 03:41 PM PDT   This post is part of Mashable's Spark of Genius series, which highlights a unique feature of startups. The series is made possible by Microsoft BizSpark.. If you would like to have your startup considered for inclusion, please see the details here.
Quick Pitch: Sprout Social delivers comprehensive tools that allow businesses to efficiently and effectively manage and grow their social presence across multiple channels. Genius Idea: Sprout Social is a social relationship manager designed to let small businesses, agencies and brands manage multiple social networks from one central dashboard. The fundamental problem is that most social networks were designed for consumers, not for businesses. That means that the tools required to monitor and manage those networks are usually not built into the service itself. In the last 12 months, more and more players have entered the social media management space. Some, like Involver and Vitrue, take a higher-level approach to big brands and also offer app-creation tools. Other services like HootSuite straddle the line between consumer- and business-friendly. We like that Sprout Social is a solid offering for the smaller brand or agency; it offers more robust management tools, but it’s still affordable. Pricing starts at $9.99 per month for managing up to five identities. For $49.99 per month, 10 identities or locations can be managed and additional metrics and more advanced tracking data is available. At the $9.99 per month plan, Sprout Social can monitor Twitter, Facebook (fan and personal pages) and LinkedIn. This means you can search and monitor those networks, cross-post to networks and do things like link and referral tracking. For users that opt to spend $49.99 per month, Sprout Social adds Foursquare and Yelp support, geotargeting and the ability to create daily specials or offers. This makes Sprout Social a particularly useful tool for local businesses like restaurants or retail shops. Check out this video to see what Sprout Social is all about.

| A World Without E-mail: One Man’s Vision of a Social Workplace Posted: 03 Sep 2010 02:38 PM PDT   Luis Suarez has a dream, and it’s one that many of us with our overloaded inboxes could well buy in to — a world without e-mail. In fact, it could be argued that Suarez is living the dream. In less than three years, he’s been able to reduce 90% of his incoming e-mail by communicating through social software, and he works full-time for IBM while living in the Canary Islands. The last six years of his 13-year IBM career have been spent working remotely from Gran Canaria, a place which he describes as “a paradise island,” and not just because his boss is 6,000 kilometers away. So how does a man who works remotely for a major tech company manage to virtually eliminate his e-mail, and why does his mission even exist? We caught up with Suarez and asked.  Under his official title of Knowledge Manager, Community Builder & Social Computing Evangelist in the IBM Software Group division, Suarez promotes the use of social software for enterprise. But in 2008, he decided to take the promotion a bit further by actively showing colleagues how much more productive they could be using social tools on the web, instead of more traditional methods of intra-company communication. “Around two and a half years ago in my role of software evangelism, one of the main hurdles we were hearing from people is … they perceive this software as another set of tools on top of what they were already using,” Suarez tells us. “They had this feeling that, you’re asking me to spend more time online with Twitter, Facebook and whatever the internal social software applications were.” Suarez saw this as a challenge and decided he needed to prove to his colleagues that social software was the answer and not the problem. Two and a half years ago he began “a little experiment.” “As a remote employee, I’m wanted to prove to everyone that I could keep working for the company without using e-mail, relying almost … exclusively on social software tools to communicate daily with my team members.” His plan was to show his coworkers just how dependent they really were on e-mail, emphasizing how many times a day they were compelled to check it, and proving that it was no longer a productivity tool, but a procrastinator’s best friend. He acknowledges that times have changed. Ten years ago, e-mail was absolutely necessary for business interactions. Yet in the last two and a half years, he’s advocated for social software to replace e-mail as the go-to communication method. Rather than restricting file and data sharing conversations to personal inboxes, Suarez persuades employees to first share data more openly behind company firewalls, and then as they ease into the concept (and if it’s relevant), share it on wider social services. “I’ve kept track of progress,” he says. “I’ve gone from 30 to 40 e-mails a day to an average of just 17 per week. Most of those are one-on-one private conversations, for which e-mail is still probably the best tool for anything sensitive or confidential.”  This is his proof, he says. The numbers show that social software isn’t about adding more work and stress, but looking for smarter ways to get the job done. With technology changing rapidly, it’s worthwhile to wonder if ten years down the line, e-mail may still be as prominent in our lives as it is today. “We will still have e-mail in ten years,” says Suarez. “I don’t want to kill all e-mail, but I want to help people re-purpose it. We will see traditional tools like e-mail redesigned to be used for what it was originally designed for.” For Suarez, the e-mail of the future will look something like this: “You get an alert, telling you how and where you can go and grab content … it won’t just be a notification system, but a read-write opportunity with the option to engage back so that information is no longer stuck in an inbox.” While his work focuses on helping businesses make the most of social software, he has shared his how-to advice with us so that individuals can take steps to reduce the amount of e-mail they receive. 1. Don’t ReplyIf you want to stop receiving so much e-mail, the number one rule is don’t reply to it. The more you reply, the more you will get back. If you break that chain, you are already on a good path to kill most of the e-mail you get. 2. Study Your InboxNext, study your inbox. Evaluate the kind of personal interactions that are taking place there. For example, you may find out that you subscribe to a hundred newsletters and you don’t read any of them. After you’ve studied the way you use your inbox, try to group e-mails together into categories — newsletters, Q&As, e-mails from family members, etc. 3. Tackle One Area a WeekAfter you’ve evaluated you intake, slowly move one of those groups away from your inbox. Don’t try to cover them all in one go, because it will be too much. One week, unsubscribe from newsletters and try and find alternative sources such as a feed reader or relevant Twitter accounts. You may find that you are bombarded with e-mail questions from colleagues, and that you get one particular question 40 times from 40 different people in one month. So the next week, sort out the Q&A. The way to deal with that is to set up a blog offering the answers. The blog will be indexed by Google, and your answers will be available to everyone out there. This means you are no longer part of the bottle neck, and you are helping people to feed themselves with the information that they need. “Some people say to me, but you are lucky, you’re [at] a big IT company,” concludes Suarez. “It may seem easy for a big company, but with the huge amounts of options we have out there — all the various social software tools — there is no longer an excuse.” You can read more from Luis Suarez on his Knowledge Management blog, Thinking Outside the Inbox.

| Facebook Search Now Displaying Top “Liked” Stories from Across the Web Posted: 03 Sep 2010 02:00 PM PDT   In today’s world of real-time status updates, search is evolving to account for the social nature of the web. Facebook is pushing forward in this direction with on-site search functionality that now displays search results — for Facebook and web content — based on “Likes” and shares. Facebook appears to have quietly rolled out the beefed-up search offering some time over the past few days; it was first spotted by All Facebook. From the looks of it, Facebook is ranking results based on how users engage with content via its social plugins. It’s unclear how Facebook is defining its formula — the formula seems to account for shares and Likes from a member’s friends as well as shares and Likes from everyone else to determine an item’s placement. Just recently, Facebook was awarded a search patent for “ranking search results based on the frequency of clicks on the search results by members of a social network who are within a predetermined degree of separation." The company has yet to officially announce the new search functionality or explain how it works. We’ve reached out to Facebook for more information and will update this post when we know more. For the time being, consider this yet another small step in Facebook’s designs to capture search share and harness the abundance of data available around their social plugins. Update: Facebook responded to our inquiry explaining, “We launched the ability to see articles shared by your direct friends in the search typeahead. For instance, if your friend is on a news site and clicks "Like" under one of the articles (which will then go into News Feed), when you go to search for that article on Facebook, it will surface in the dropdown.”  Reviews: Facebook More About: facebook, likes, Search For more Social Media coverage:

| NVIDIA Updates Mobile Lineup with GeForce 400M Series GPUs Posted: 03 Sep 2010 01:45 PM PDT   Today, NVIDIA announced the GeForce 400M Series, a major addition to its lineup of mobile graphics processing units (GPUs). The 400M series features seven new processors, including the GTX 470M and GTX 460M monsters aimed at “enthusiast users,” as well as the GT 445M, GT 435M, GT 425M, GT 420M and GT 415M, intended for real-world use. If you’re questioning why NVIDIA is releasing five GT GPUs, you’re not alone. While there will likely be a noticeable difference between GT and GTX models, the variations between any two of the GT processors are likely to be minimal. Like all things currently graphics-related (or so it seems), the 400M will support stereoscopic 3D video. Those of you with a 3D TV will be pleased to know that the 400M GPUs include NVIDIA 3DTV Play software, which enables 3D content playback on compatible TVs. More important, though, is the inclusion of NVIDIA Optimus, a technology that switches the GPU off in order to conserve battery power when its not processing graphics-heavy materials. This allows for flexibility in notebook longevity, while not degrading performance. The GeForce 400M GPUs will be available in upcoming notebooks from Acer, Asus, Dell, Lenovo, Samsung and Toshiba.

| HOW TO: Score the Best Fashion Deals on the Social Web Posted: 03 Sep 2010 12:09 PM PDT   Mollie Vandor is the Product Manager for Ranker.com and Media Director for Girls in Tech LA. You can find her on Twitter and on her blog, where she writes about the web, the world and what it's like to be a geek chic chick. Just because the economy is still depressed doesn’t mean you have to be. In fact, there are plenty of ways to live it up without seeing your bank balance plummet — especially if you know how to use social media to live the good life on tight budget. Even the most reclusive social media shut-ins need to leave the house for some in-person networking at some point. And when you do, you don’t want to look like the poor slob who just threw on whichever pants were closest to the computer screen. Nor do you want to be the designer diva who can’t afford cab fare because she blew all her bucks on a brand name bag. Fortunately, thanks to a few online tips and tricks, high fashion doesn’t have to come with a high price tag. Smell the Savings Coco Chanel once said, “A woman who doesn’t wear perfume has no future.” While Coco may have been overstating her case a bit, it’s true that perfume and cologne are great accessories to any outfit. Of course, buying the good stuff can also be a great way to flush a fortune down the drain. That’s why sample sizes should be your new best body-odor-fighting friend. Don’t let their small size fool you — one of these little bottles will still probably give you a good six months of sweet scents, depending on how heavily you use it. Sample perfumes start as low as $1.99 on Amazon, and because they’re so small, shipping is extremely cheap. If you buy from a bigger retailer like FragranceNet, they’ll also usually throw in other goodies like more perfume or makeup samples. Personal Stylists Are Out of Style Before you buy any clothes to go with that signature scent, use a site like Polyvore or ShopStyle to be your own personal wardrobe stylist — no hefty retainer required. These sartorial social networks let you “try before you buy” by giving you the tools to put together looks online, so you can see how clothes and accessories will work together. With huge databases of designer duds, this is a great way to test drive an outfit before you spend cold, hard cash on it, and a great way to keep track of what you already have in your closet. Plus, with everyone posting different looks, these are also great places to get inspiration for new ways to wear the stuff you’ve already shelled out the cash for. Keep Your Cash When you are ready to make a big clothing or beauty purchase, make sure you use a service like eBates, which gives you a percentage of what you spend on their partner sites back as a cash rebate. So, it’s basically like you’re paying yourself to shop — or at least that’s what you can tell yourself to justify spending so much on shoes. Sample Sale Sites Of course, you can avoid spending full price on anything by signing up for a private sale site. These sites are the online equivalent of a sample sale, giving you exclusive access to amazing deals on designer looks. And, many of them will even e-mail you when a sale matching your particular preferences pops up. With so many sale sites to choose from, it can sometimes be difficult to decide which ones are worth opening your inbox too. If you’re looking for basics like great jeans or tees, then BlueFly is probably your best bet. This mainstream online shopping mall also has a fantastic private sale area, where anyone can browse big discounts on designer duds from brands like Theory, Prada and Louboutin. You don’t even have to sign up to use it, although registered users can ask to be notified about new deals via e-mail. If you’re into the higher end of high fashion, then Gilt Groupe, Net-A-Porter and Haute Look are all great bets for big name brands. Gilt Man gives guys the same exclusive deals on a site built just for them. Gilt Groupe even has an iPhone/iPad/Android app to let you shop sales on the go. Net-A-Porter lets you do the same from your iPhone/iPad. For more unique, up-and-coming designers, head to Rue La La, which has a slightly younger aesthetic and a lot of fun, playful finds. If you’ve got little ones to outfit too, use Zulily. They’ve got great clothes and accessories for kids, and a few things for mom too. Vintage: Everything Old is New Again If brand new brands aren’t your bag, the web is also a great place to track down fabulous vintage finds, which often cost far less than their shiny new counterparts. In the dark ages before the Internet, finding that amazing designer piece of vintage clothing was like searching for the proverbial needle in a big, messy thrift store haystack. But now, there are some great options for perusing the previously worn racks from the comfort of your computer screen. Etsy, Rusty Zipper, Archive Vintage and Posh Girl Vintage are just a few of the places where you can score hot looks with a little bit of history behind them. CMadeleines has a great listing of vintage duds by designers, including pieces by Chanel, Dior and Hermes. And, TheFrock has fantastic vintage dresses, including a great bridal boutique. Speaking of brides, if you’re looking to accessorize all of those fabulous outfits you just bought online, you can score great jewelry deals — including deeply discounted bridal bling — at I Do, Now I Don’t. This site specializes in the sale of jewels by scorned exes who want to unload them fast for much less than what they were purchased for in the first place. You can bid on necklaces, bracelets, rings and more, or buy them outright. Just try to avoid reading the stories about why the items are being sold, unless you want to spend a whole lot more in retail therapy to get your mood back up. Why Buy When You Can Rent? If you just need a single look for a particular event, or you want to get all the benefits of a brand name buy without all that pesky commitment and cold, hard cash, then you want a runway rental service. These sites offer what A-list celebrities have been privy to for years; borrowing. Designer duds and amazing accessories can be rented for far less than you’d pay to actually own them. It’s sort of like Netflix for your closet. Bag, Borrow or Steal and From Bags to Riches offer amazing purses and accessories, and Rent the Runway has clothing options guaranteed to get even the most finicky fashionista frothing at the mouth — or the keyboard, as the case may be. Fashion Goes Social Even if you’re not necessarily an online shopper — or renter — you can still get great gear at low prices using the web. You can follow brands like Louis Vuitton on Foursquare and Toms Shoes on Gowalla for insider info, good deals and the chance to win great stuff. Or you can use Stylophane to quickly find your favorite fashion brands on Facebook. If you want to find coupons you can use in the real world, CheapTweet will let quickly scan everyone who is sharing a fashion or beauty sale on Twitter in real time, so you know which coupons to print out and which ones to pass on. You can also send a tweet to @couponbot with the name of your favorite store, and see what deals come back. Of course, you should also make sure you accessorize your favorite mobile device with an app like ShopSavvy, which lets you scan bar codes of stuff you’re thinking about buying to see if there’s a better price elsewhere. Because if you’re paying the bill for a decent smartphone data plan, you definitely can’t afford to pay full price for fashion when there’s a sale going on somewhere else. No matter what your style, saving money is always in. Especially with the recession turning penny-pinching into the hottest trend for fall. But thanks to the Internet, you can be on top of that trend – and many more – without a lot of extra effort or energy. Because saving money on style is great. But saving money on style while sitting at home in your pajama pants is even better. More Social Media Resources from Mashable:

| Explore Space with NASA HD for iPad Posted: 03 Sep 2010 12:01 PM PDT   NASA has just released an iPad version of its official NASA app for iPhone. NASA HD is a free app that lets users view thousands of NASA images, information about current NASA images and videos, as well as live stream NASA TV. While the satellite trackers and mission information is interesting, our favorite part of the app are the photographs. NASA has a huge archive of photographs — some of which were released to Flickr earlier this week — and thousands of these images are accessible in the app. You can also share photos and videos via Twitter and Facebook.

| iTunes Ping: The Missing Thing Posted: 03 Sep 2010 11:01 AM PDT
Ping takes the “activity stream” format popularized by Twitter and Facebook and applies it to the music your friends are “talking about, listening to, and downloading”. In theory, this should take us beyond mainstream hits and further down the so-called “long tail” of lesser known artists. It’s here that Ping fails to deliver: The network is currently just another way to follow Lady Gaga. That’s the topic of my CNN column this week.

| Social Media Grammar: The “Checkin” Conundrum Posted: 03 Sep 2010 10:35 AM PDT   Alanna Francis is a SEO Specialist and Grammar Enthusiast at the website design company Blue Fountain Media, where she specializes in e-commerce marketing. She writes for the company’s web design and SEO trends blog and you can follow her on Twitter @AlannaFrancis. We're thrilled that the Associated Press has recently released an updated set of style rules specifically tailored to web and social media terms. But given how quickly new sites and their accompanying terms gain popularity, it can be difficult to keep up. Such is the case for geolocation services like Facebook Places, Foursquare, Gowalla, and Brightkite. Geolocation services allow users to keep friends and followers posted on where they are at all times. We have a specific phrase to describe this action. However, said phrase raises some grammatical quandaries for social media grammar geeks such as myself. You might be familiar with this phrase by now, and it is more than likely that you have seen it represented a few different ways. Check in? Checkin? Checked-in? Check-ed in?You’ve probably seen all of these written one place or another, but which one is right? Is it two words or one? The answer is simple: There are two forms of this phrase. One is a verb, the other a noun. "Checkin" is a noun. When used as such, the two words should be merged:
"Check in" is a verb, and the two words should remain separate and unhyphenated:
“In to” or “Into”? Now that we've settled the issue of checkin vs. check in, it's time to move on to the advanced portion of this lesson. You know to say, "Did Foursquare count my most recent checkin?" but what about when you want to specify the place where you have just checked in? Would you say "checked in to" or "checked into?" The distinction between "into" and "in to" is confusing for most people, not only in this particular context but in everyday grammar usage as well. Because in speech there is little audible difference between saying "into" and "in to," most of us never bothered to learn how to use each one properly. There were many more important things to do in ninth grade English class than pay attention to grammar lessons, right? So, in case you missed it while you were flirting with Suzy who sat behind you in class, "into" is one single preposition and is generally used as an expression of movement.
"Into" is also used to indicate a change of physical state. The phrase "in to," on the other hand, is two separate prepositions. It is correct to say: "Even though the wallet was stuffed with hundred dollar bills and obscenely large diamond rings, I turned it in to the police." If you wrote that you turned the wallet into the police, you would be indicating that you transformed a wallet into a police force, which is nonsensical at best. Instead, you want to indicate that you are handing over the wallet to the police. To recap: Celebrities frequently check in to rehab centers. They also check in to exclusive hotels on Caribbean islands. So it follows that: "I check in to the Williamsburg Bridge when I ride my bike to work." And "I didn't check in to the theater when I went to see Twilight, because I didn't want anyone to know I actually sort of like those movies." Oops…I guess the cat's out of the bag on that one now. This guide should help clear things up for you. Please comment and let us know if there are any other social media grammar rules that you aren’t quite clear about.

| iTunes Ping’s Latest Problem: Spam Posted: 03 Sep 2010 09:38 AM PDT   iTunes Ping is apparently full of spam, yet another hiccup in Apple’s road to establishing a legitimate social network. As Sophos notes on its blog, a barrage of spam links are hitting the music-themed social network. Many of these links are to offers promising free iPad, iPhone or iPod touch devices. Apple released iTunes 10 and iTunes Ping earlier this week and the rollout has been a little bit rocky. Beyond the latest spam attacks, issues with Facebook Connect, international access issues and unclear policies for musicians have plagued the service. These messages, which you can see in the screenshot below, are showing up in comments to posts from iTunes Featured Artists or in responses to posts from other users who make their content accessible to anyone. Online spam is perhaps the annoyance that unifies us all. No matter how big a company or network or blog is (or small), the spammers will come. What’s curious is that it doesn’t appear that Apple has any spam safe-guards in place. While it’s true that iTunes Ping has a approval process for all profile photos used with Ping (presumably to prevent nude or other NSFW photos from showing up), the real-time nature of Ping prevents that sort of scrutiny for comments on posts.  Real time is actually pretty new for Apple. Users have long been able to leave reviews for music, movies and applications using iTunes, but like the profile photos in Ping, these reviews are held for review before publishing. Still, it appears as though Apple did anticipate the problem, at least in part. On any post on your wall, there is a “Report” button next to “Like.” That button lets users report content for lots of reasons, including spam. Clearly Apple anticipated people using the post feature to spam friends or followers.  What isn’t an option, however, is the ability to report individual replies to those posts as spam. A simple starter solution would be to reject any comments that contain “http://” or “www.” in the text box. Comments are not hyperlinked so this would stave off some of the automated spam that seems to be showing up right now. What is clear is that Apple will need to institute a much stronger anti-spam algorithm into its commenting system to ebb the flow of spam on Ping.

| Determine Restaurant Wait Times Before You Leave the House [APPS] Posted: 03 Sep 2010 09:10 AM PDT   If you’re anything like me (too impatient to boil water), you hate waiting to be seated at restaurants — those blinking, vibrating beeper things really are instruments of the devil, no? Well, The Onion’s A.V. Club has come up with a solution for you: a crowdsourced iPhone app that lets you know about wait times at local eateries. According to The A.V. Club’s website, the idea was inspired by popular Chicago hot dog maker, Hot Doug. If you’ve ever been to Chi-Town, you’ve probably partaken in Hot Doug’s wondrous wares — dude even braved a fine for serving up foie gras hot dogs during the ban of that particular duck product in the Windy City. In short: He makes good hot dogs, and the line is often long to procure one. First came a Twitter feed, designed to keep tabs on wait times, and then the Onion partnered with Invoke to develop WaitList, a free iPhone app for the hungry and the impatient. Basically, it’s like a super-specialized Foursquare. Simply send a tip with regard to your wait time the next time you’re stuck bar-side and other app users will benefit from your frustration. But, hey, if you pay it forward it will pay off for you eventually. Still, all users will have to be active on the app in order for it to really work. This idea reminds us of Google’s Open Spot app, which crowd sources users to share news about open parking spots. Both require users to be active with checkins in order for the app to work best. (However, this particular app doesn’t encourage people to check in behind the wheel.) Currently, the app is only available for the iPhone, which is a pain for all of us Android users out there. I hate waiting… In the meantime, check out some screenshots below:   Image courtesy of Flickr, Geoff Peters 604 Reviews: Android, Flickr, Foursquare, Twitter For more Mobile coverage:

| Twitter Surpasses 145 Million Registered Users Posted: 03 Sep 2010 08:44 AM PDT   Buried in last night’s update on skyrocketing mobile usage, Twitter CEO Evan Williams revealed that the company now has more than 145 million registered users. The last time Twitter went on the record with member registrations, it was touting 105 million registered users. That stat came just four months ago, which makes last night’s reveal quite significant and proves that Twitter is adding nearly 300,000 new users per day, as previously disclosed. Of course, mobile plays a huge role in Twitter’s growth. Sixteen percent of new Twitter users now join via mobile device, as opposed to signing up on the web. The official Twitter mobile apps have significantly helped the company on this front. This week’s Twitter for iPad unveiling could also help the company recruit even more new members through mobile. The application offers a fresh iPad-specific application experience with an innovative panel design.

| The Top 10 Most Watched Web Series, July 2010 Posted: 03 Sep 2010 08:22 AM PDT   Each month, our partner Visible Measures compiles a list of the top 10 most popular web video series, and we share those results with you and provide analysis. Visible Measures tracks views, comments and other data on web video. If you’re looking for some video entertainment to watch online during your lunch break, this chart is a great place to start. Just find a show you’re interested in and click the play button to the right to check it out. The top 10 series received more views in July than in any previous month, so web video is growing, but there haven’t been any major shakeups since the June list. This month saw the return of Jake & Amir and a bunch of new content from long-time top performer Fred after a long dry spell. It gives some evidence that if you want to get to the top, you have to keep cranking out new content. The Chart: July 2010
*The Visible Measures Top 10 Webisodes Chart focuses on digital studio-driven Web series that appear on Internet video-sharing destinations and publisher microsites. Each Web series is measured on a True Reach™ basis, which includes viewership of both studio-syndicated video clips and viewer-driven social video placements. The data are compiled using the Visible Measures platform, a constantly growing repository of analytic data on more than 200 million Internet videos across more than 200 video destinations. If you are a webisode publisher and would like clips from your microsites to be counted towards the chart, please contact Visible Measures. Note: This chart does not include vloggers, interviews, how-to series, news shows, or product review shows. View-count results are incremental by month. To notify Visible Measures of an upcoming Web series, or for an end-to-end assessment of your campaign's overall performance, please contact Visible Measures directly. If you're interested in exploring this data further, go to visiblemeasures.com/mashable . Fred’s Back! Back in April we noted that YouTube superstar Fred had stopped producing new episodes regularly because he was working on a Nickelodean TV movie. Well, the movie has wrapped and Fred’s hiatus is at an end. Thanks to new episodes, Fred broke 30 million for the first time since December — a 42% increase in views since June. That meant Fred was able to retain his #3 spot behind relative newcomers The Annoying Orange and Key of Awesome. It pays to produce rather than rest on your laurels, it seems. Jake & Amir Replaces Charlie the Unicorn Charlie the Unicorn and Potter Puppet Pals both hung out on the chart for a while, riding entirely on content that was months or even years old. For Charlie the Unicorn that came to an end this month; Jake & Amir returned to the chart in eight place and Charlie the Unicorn is no where to be seen. There is such a thing as evergreen content for web series, but as with blogs and other online media, you can’t stay at the top of the heap without generating new content to supplement or support the old.

| A Beginner’s Guide to Facebook Insights Posted: 03 Sep 2010 07:27 AM PDT   Ekaterina Walter is a social media strategist at Intel. She is a part of Intel's Social Media Center of Excellence and is responsible for company-wide social media enablement and corporate social networking strategy. You have created a Facebook Fan Page. Now what? I bet these questions come to mind: "Is my page a success?" "Who is engaging with us?" "Is our engagement effective?" "Does our content strategy work?" The Facebook Insights dashboard will help you answer some of these questions. As defined by Facebook, "Insights provides Facebook Page owners … with metrics around their content. By understanding and analyzing trends within user growth and demographics, consumption of content, and creation of content, Page owners … are better equipped to improve their business with Facebook." So what’s the best way to use this relatively new tool? We’ve outlined some steps below that should have you measuring Facebook engagement in no time. Note that only page administrators can view Insights data for the properties they own or administer. Examine a Wide Range of DataThere are two types of Facebook insights:
The question then becomes: "What do you want to track and measure?" There is a lot of data offered, but you want to sort through it and identify what information is meaningful and will help you make decisions about your engagement and content strategy. If that data is not readily available, you might want to do some manual calculations to derive the numbers you’re looking for. Below are the insights I recommend you pay attention to and track.
    Some of these metrics require constant manual tracking and analysis, which is a big downside. However, the above metrics will help you make decisions about your engagement and content strategy that would allow more effective interactions with your customers.

| iOS Bigger than Linux and Android Combined [STATS] Posted: 03 Sep 2010 07:07 AM PDT   According to the latest numbers from Net Applications, iOS is the third most popular platform on the Internet, surpassing Linux and Android combined. In August 2010, Android had a 0.20% market share, Linux was at 0.85%, while iOS devices – the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad – had a 1.13% market share. Net Applications’ figures do not include device sales – they merely show which devices are being used to access the web. "It's something to take note of when a mobile operating system passes something that's been around forever. Mobile's growth curve is strong and mobile is becoming quite a phenomenon on the Internet." said Net Applications’ vice president Vince Vizzaccaro.”  As always, take these numbers with a grain of salt; Linux users are more tech-savvy than most users and are thus more likely to block Net Applications from tracking their web usage. One could also argue in favor of Android devices being counted as Linux, since Android is based on the Linux kernel. Regardless, one number stands out: put all the different mobile devices together, and they account for 2.6 percent of all devices accessing the web. And that’s just the beginning: the smartphone market has been growing fast in the last year, the iPad is still relatively new to the market, and first serious competitors are yet to make an impact.

| Morning Brief: Ubuntu 10.10 Beta, Plex Partners with LG, Verizon Prepaid Plans Posted: 03 Sep 2010 06:36 AM PDT This series is brought to you by HTC EVO 4G, America’s first 4G phone. Only from Sprint. The “First to Know” series keeps you in the know on what’s happening now in the world of social media and technology.   Welcome to this morning’s edition of “First To Know,” a series in which we keep you in the know on what’s happening in the digital world. We’re keeping our eyes on three particular stories of interest today. Ubuntu 10.10 Beta Now Available The first beta for the next version of the popular Linux distribution Ubuntu, dubbed Maverick Meerkat, is now available for testing. While the final release isn’t expected to ship until October 10, users who aren’t afraid of encountering some bugs are encouraged to download and test the new version. For netbook users, the Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook Edition features a brand new default user interface designed to better take advantage of screen proportions for smaller devices. The desktop version will feature improvements to the Ubuntu Software Center and faster boot times. Users can download Ubuntu 10.10 beta 1 from Ubuntu.com. Plex Partners with LG to Take On Apple TV, Boxee Plex, a popular media center for Mac OS X, has announced that it will be partnering with LG Electronics to bring the Plex platform to LG’s 2011 NetCast line of HDTVs and Blu-ray devices. On the Plex blog, Co-founder Elan Feingold discusses how Plex will now be able to compete with Boxee and the Apple TV, while remaining free to use on a Mac or iOS device (Android coming soon) or via an LG HDTV or Blu-ray player. Plex, which like Boxee is a fork of the original XBMC project, recently released its latest version, Plex Nine. For users interested in running their own home media server, Plex is a very attractive option. Verizon Offers Pre-paid Data Plans for Some Smartphones Verizon Wireless will be offering no-contract prepaid data plans for some smartphones later this month. The company will be offering a $30 per month unlimited data pay-as-you-go plan for eligible devices. Multimedia phones (non-smartphones with media features built in), customers can prepay $10 per month for 25MB of data, plus 20 cents per megabyte over that limit. Eligible smartphones include select BlackBerry models (Curve, Storm, Storm2, Tour, Bold); the Palm Pre Plus and Pixi Plus; Motorola’s DROID, DROID X and DROID 2; and HTC DROID Eris, HTC DROID Incredible. Prepaid smartphone data plans will be available on September 28. Further News
