Soziale Netzwerke

Soziale Netzwerke sind China ein Dorn im Auge

Ausländische Internetunternehmen sind in China kaum vertreten oder haben bereits die Segel gestrichen. Denn das Beispiel Ägyptens zeigt: Facebook und Co bieten eine Art virtueller Meinungs- und Versammlungsfreiheit.

Twitter no censorship?

Twitter plans to stop censorship

Twitter is blocked in China since June 2009.

Now, Twitter is developing technology aimed at preventing the governments of China and Iran from censoring Tweets, co-founder Evan Williams told an audience at the World Economic Forum in Davos, the Financial Times is reporting.

Williams didn’t detail Twitter’s approach — in part to give no clues to the governments it hopes to confound — but described the work as “interesting hacks.”

Web 2.0 at T-Systems

Open Space conference to discuss Web 2.0

Today, I am invited to take part in a Open Space conference to discuss Web 2.0 techniques and its impact on T-Systems’ marketing and corporate communication. More than 100 internal and external experts meet at Römerkastell in Stuttgart.

People are especially interested in Blogging, Twitter and mobile communication. But T-Systems employees also worry about side effects… What does it mean to be online night and day, working for the company by receiving mails at 10pm or sending tweets during lunch break? Who are the “Digital Natives” and the less Web 2.0 literate, the “Digital Immigrants”? Who will survive? Will there be a digital divide between cultures or generations? Is “real-time marketing” an answer to the future business communication needs? More questions than answers at the moment and lot of people talk about impacts of techniques they haven’t even used yet…

Tools for Twitter

Tools for your
ultimate Twitter experience

Since Twitter is the new hype (more than 500Mio Google-Hits…), millons of users express themselves with tweets, those short messages where you can inform others what you are up to. (See my tweets in the column on the very right). In a recent poll, they found that Business People Say Twitter (is) More Important Than LinkedIn.
One more reason to finally get organized…
These are the tools which I find very useful and have a great usability …and help you not to get lost in “Twitter space”…

Tweetdeck

Nice dashboard, gives an overview on your Twitter activities: your friend’s tweets, which you can group, replies, Facebook status, favorites, Twitscoop (trend topics of the moment) and you can tweet aswell and shorten included urls
Trendy black interface, a bit slow and unstable though.

similiar but simpler: Twhirl and Twitterfox, an add-on for Firefox

Twittercounter / TwitterRemote

Twittercounter: statistics and predictions, rankings (The top 10 most followed Twitter users), new: email notification
TwitterRemote: see which Twitter users visit your site. After twitter users sign in their profile is displayed on every TwitterRemote enabled website they visit after that. The advantage for site owners is that they see who visits their site and they even have an opportunity to contact these people.

Tool developed by The Next Web, they host a conference and a blog and they tweet of course…

Tweetmeme

Tweetmeme is a service which aggregates all the popular links on twitter. Tweetmeme is able to categorize these links into categories and subcategories, making it easy to filter out the noise to find what you are interested in.
