This is a paragraph from sitefever.com . Anyone want to translate this for me?  superpoked, bitten by vampires, how much of this is slang that is commonly used, and how much is it just cool things he found while using facebook.  I would appreciate any information regarding slang used in social networking. Thanks

However, recently many of my friends join Facebook and keep telling me that it is fun. With peer influence, i decided to register and just take a peep. Within a few days, i’ve found most of my friends who are in myspace friendster also in facebook! This is crazy. I begin to update my profile and look around… then i was being superpoked, being bitten by vampire, getting gifts, got a fluff pet, confirmed friends details, being nominated for Superlatives, being challenged to a race, got a Ford Mustang, compare movie reviews and ratings, threw some turkeys and sheeps, received virtual iphone, got some growing gifts, received superwall posts…

A friend of mine asked about tags so I found this video for you,you know who you are.  This explains the benefis of switching from bookmarks or favorites to a social bookmarking site. It is a quick and very clear YouTube video.  I continue to enjoy these cheap and resource poor videos.  They get their point across with little more than a camcorder. Notice the tags I use in this post as well.

A simple story that illustrates the forces shaping social media.  I want to begin making presenations like this. Do you suppose it is Flash?  I need to start studying this again. I love simple technology like this and would especially like mixing it up with video and photos.   Very interesting analogy though I would have liked to see it contrasted with a real life example using a blog, twitter etc. 

I know I probably bore you all with my little photo slideshows... but i just have to say, I am really loving my most recent photo storage site.  www.photobucket.com

It has an application that I just tried out today and LOVE... it's called REMIX.  I created this entire slideshow... transitions, captions, music... everything... in less than an hour... super fun to do as well.

Anyways... try it out yourself.

Have you ever used Snag It?

Have you ever made a screenshot and then open it up in Photoshop just to crop what you were wanting to post?

Well look no further (especially Mac Users!) - The Jing Project is here!  Download this baby and you'll be able to snag graphics anywhere for free (I believe Snag It is around $50 and it's for PCs only).  I tried it a few weeks ago on my Mac and I was quite pleased.  I especially liked the fact that you can upload the image you captured onto Flickr.

So what are you waiting for??  Get The Jing Project.
