"Our twittastic robots scan the Twitter public timeline for new users twits to watch. A few times a day, we calculate individual statistics for each user twit in our database."Yay.
"TwitterBuzz shows you what people using Twitter, a microblogging service, are linking to. It's updated constantly. The default view shows the most popular links over the last day."
"Videoblogger Steve Garfield takes Internet TV creation and viewing to the next level, using only a Nokia N95 phone to shoot and view video1."I just saw Om Malik in the hallway and we talked about this. Yay!

"It's hard to believe that she was once shy. Brought up in Chelsea, Mass. — a city so small a car would have been a nuisance, she says — Millie was sheltered as a child. Her parents were so protective, they gave her only one roller skate, so that she would have less of a chance of falling down."Ironic.
Hi Dave,Now unplugging...
I resisted Twitter for a long time. In fact I sent Chris Brogan a text message to tell him I was getting on a train. I didn't get it.
Now I do.
It's like the IRC backchannel at a conference. There's value in it to enhance the presentation. But if you aren't there to see how it works, you might not get it.
A lot of people got it this week at SXSW.
It's like an extension of Podtech's Bloghaus. In that case you knew where all the vloggers were going to be.
With twitter, you could jack into the net, join the borg mind, and see what was happening all around you.
Scott Beale was at the Yahoo party, we followed, then he moved on and we followed...
Without twitter a lot of people would have been lost.
I also used it to see what session at SXSW to go to... Chusk Olsen was sitting in a Bill Paxton session, I went there...
Chuck was in the politics session.. ahhh... I saw where he was and moved over to sit there...
It's very cool.

"Irina Slutsky chats with Steve Garfield after the Web 2.0 panel at SXSW. "
"The question I brought to SXSW this year is “What can I do to engage a culture of making things?” There are a few things that make sense so far. They seem obvious and simple, but these principles lead to interesting ideas!Bre is figuring it out at SXSW.
-Give them something they want and can use. Flickr is my hero.
-Interact with them. Workbookproject rocked my world!
-Include them. JPGMAG rules at this.
-Make it fun. - My photogamer project is starting and is super fun!
-Include elements of a game. Ze is a master of this!"
