Pundits speculate just what 3.0 will be, and in my opinion the next level of the internet will be full blown collaboration across industries, disciplines, crossing borders, barriers, and timezones. The world ...

This is such an interesting concept design I just had to write about it. The project is called “Brick” and is from Apple and could potentially be the world’s first all-screen laptop. The project is currently being designed by Yves Behar and some concept designs are to the left. Once seeing this project it automatically looks like a hybrid between the iPhone and a Macbook-Air. Apple’s “Brick” would be a hybrid laptop/tablet/ebook that dispenses with ...

I came across a new search engine this morning called Social Mention. Social Mention is a social media search engine, search areas include blogs, micro-blogs, bookmarks, comments, images and more. Social Mention is great for website owners/ceo’s for keeping track of the buzz surounding their web properties. However, I would have liked to see the text size in the main column a little smaller, thus allowing more articles above the fold. Social Mention is a ...

One of the biggest critiques that has come against Twitter aside form scaling issues, has been it’s lack of grouping and/or allowing for Twitter contacts to be grouped. This has been one failure of Twitter to better help users organize their contacts, or speak directly to a group of contacts without messaging their entire follower list. As a result, various small groups have popped up to fill the need, but all of them based on ...
