That right kids Toluu announced today that tagging is now a feature for the feed discovery/sharing service. I think this should take the service to the next level and allow users to find feeds for certain subjects they are looking for like “Apple”, “Tech”, “8-Bit”, ect. Here are the juicy details: *Tag Tab* On every feed page (the page with the blog post summaries) there is a new tab called ‘Tags’ . In this Tab, ...

How did I get that to work? With Twitterfeed! If you are not familiar with twitterfeed it allows you to grab any rss feed and feed it through you twitter account. Its what I use ...

one thing I have really been missing on twitter these days has been the ‘track’ feature which would let you get any tweets that matched a string you wanted to follow. For myself one I would track was ‘@jeffisageek’. The sad news though is twitter has shut off the track feature for the time being. For myself I created a little work around that I figured I would share with everyone. It involves using twitter, ...

Over the last few weeks I have been playing around with 12seconds.tv a lot and have to say its a fun little service. Not gonna change the world or find a cure for cancer but a kool little service.

Kohina is a free “just ...

Just found out about this sweet project over at mozilla labs called Ubiquity. What is Ubiquity you ask? An experiment into connecting the Web with language. Ubiquity’s goals are to: Empower users to control the web browser with language-based instructions. (With search, users type what they want to find. With Ubiquity, they type what they want to do.) Enable on-demand, user-generated mashups with existing open Web APIs. (In other words, allowing everyone (not just Web ...
