Wikipedia Wars
Posted by Andy Stafford | Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

The latest infographic (erm, information displayed visually) from the wonderful ‘Information is Beautiful’ looks at the most banal ongoing arguments that have been raging on between Wikipedia editors. For those of you that were under the impression that some articles are posted to a chorus of unified approval, whereas others involve some necessary lofty academic style debate over the validity of the facts may be a little surprised to see some of these edits. The debates range from the banal to the ridiculous, but one of the recurring themes hinges on U.S. and English spelling. Well, that’s one that will just run and run…. technology, no matter how social is not going to resolve that one.

You can see the original post here at ‘information is beautiful‘.

5 tips for social network profiles
Posted by Danny Denhard | Thursday, March 4th, 2010

To keep my little tradition going, here are five top tips for your social network profiles.

1. Upload a picture of you – default pictures are rubbish and everyone likes to see your face (however photographic you may or may not be) It’s a personal experience, help people associate your voice and opinions with your face.

2. Do not lie – Best example is LinkedIn, LinkedIn is like your online CV. So if you lie on there you will be found out. Don’t get to an interview and be caught out, many potential employers do check the potential employee’s. (I know I did)

3. Its not all about you – Social networks aren’t always about you, it might be your escape or your own little world, however social networks are all about conversation, so interact….please.

4. No one likes a moaner – Everyone loves a moan, especially us in the UK, but constant moaning online is not cool. 2010 is unofficially (of course) the year to be positive.

5. Status updates are seen by all – Unless you protect your updates or have a hidden identity, do not update your status’ with I hate my job, my boss is…., she’ll never find out. You get the idea, you update your status your likely to cause yourself a few issues.

has: [link/video/image] – finds all posts with either a link, video, or image.

author: – finds all posts in your stream authored by the person whose name you enter.

commenter: – finds all the posts in your reading stream that that person commented on.

source: – source: [buzz/twitter/reader/mobile/picasa]

You can also use OR and AND. For example:
