Techmeme Puts Users First Syndicate content

Popular tech news aggregation site Techmeme is going from algorithmic news to human-edited news. In other words, they will be choosing which stories appear on the site now. This of course leads to bias and "unfairness" to other sites who look forward to getting their stories on Techmeme. But as the site's owner Gabe Rivera says, "Techmeme isn't fair because life isn't fair." Well put.

Twitter Places Blame On Users For Problems Syndicate content

I almost did a Mike Arrington headline, like the one he used recently against Wired magazine, when he was frustrated that they were calling him out. It would have been so satisfying. But, I decided to play it straight. At least here. Over on FriendFeed I let my full fury out.

New Site For AOL & Job Listings On TechMeme? Syndicate content

This afternoon it was a little surreal to see a job posting appear among the headlines at TechMeme. Just last week, BusinessWire seemed pretty jazzed about getting press releases to show up there. But really? A job posting?

Fun With TechMeme Numbers Syndicate content

Last week, I posted an opinion piece about TechCrunch's prominence on TechMeme. There wasn't a lot of response—if that tells you anything about what my opinion's worth—but there was a point brought out in the comments section of that post, and a blog post elsewhere echoing.

Changing Search Results with Google Experimental Syndicate content

Some users are reportedly seeing a new experiment in Google Experimental: the ability to re-order and even hide specific items in web search results.

The Social Media Playbook Syndicate content

Muhammad Saleem has written a great introductory guide on how to approach social media.

Wrong Techcrunch Reaction On Paid Links? Syndicate content

I think this is one possibly for the water cooler on Sphinn, because I find it comical in a sad kind of way. Ted Murphy rightly questions Google quite openly to explain why PPP bloggers are being punished for not using nofollow on links, yet many prominent bloggers post quite blatant pagerank passing links to their advertisers every chance they get.

AP Is Dead ... Killed By Blogs & Aggregation Syndicate content

Old media is epitomized by no news source more than the Associated Press. Literally thousands of journalists are employed around the world to bring current event coverage to readers of thousands of newspapers and their online sites.
