Talk have been abound that Twitter is the new RSS feed. In other words it is the new way to deliver information or at least notify everyone that you have a new item posted on one’s blog or website. To me it seems to be more of an alert system when it comes to posts and new items published.
And for me one of the main problems with Twitter is it tends to get annoying. This is so true when you follow more than a hundred or so persons Read More

I recently stumbled upon an essay that divides the world into infophobes and infophiles. It is generally believed that the infophobes outnumber infophiles. Recently, I was able to get into and was able to use Evernote. In a nutshell it is an information, data and knowledge capture tool.

Have you tried Google Reader’s Your Notes feature? It is Google Reader’s new feature that allows you share with one’s friends anything that can be found on the Web that you might find interesting. It is Google Reader’s version of sharing the love and the information.
It is quite simple to install. Just drag Google Readers’ Note in Reader to your browser. Voila! its installed.
Sharing posts, pages and other such things is done with a click on the brower and one can write down notes using Notes page.
Interesting now I have Evernote and Note in Reader in my web browser. Both able to capture but for different purposes. At least for me.
What is interesting though is the Your Notes feature of Google Reader. Aside from annotating pages, post and sites that have been captured it can be posted on its own. Making it somewhat Twitter-like ? Well, It does remind of Twitter.

NewsAlloy has shut down: As of April 29 it was shutting down. This is confirmed in the blog entry of the same date. Read it here. according to the final (?) blog post it seemed that the project was not attracting investors to the enterprise. Now I have never used NewsAlloy but based on their statistics there seems to be a healthy amount of interest for their site. Again, unfortunately these were not the ones who were willing to invest.

This is probably one of my favorite stories I read when I was growing up. And today being RSS Awareness Day. It seems a nice way to celebrate it. Its a nice story and seems to be applicable to most things in life whether it be dealing with issues or a gazillion of posts to read after not opening one’s rss feed for a couple of days.

Admittedly there is a slight pause when one mentions the word RSS. It is as if a mind cloud seems to hover about a person’s brain when one speaks of it. It does not help that RSS stands for more than one set of words. It just seems to scare the beejesus out of anyone. If I had a penny every time someone tells me that A Feed Is Born is about chicken feeds I would be several pennies richer now. But enough of the rant. Now a software application and service company aims to avoid the word and other such phrases together while delivering the service so to speak. Meet ZebTab and its RSS Agreggator er desktop channels.
What is ZebTab? Well according to its website:

If your were a social technology what would you be. Apparently social technology is the term they use now for software applications or more specifically communications and information syndication software applications. Hmm. Ok lets stick to social technology. Lee Oden of the Online Marketing Blog interviewed Forrester Research Vice President & Principal Analyst covering social computing and technologies Charlene Li and asked at her point what social technology she would be.
But who is Charlene Li?
