When I was a little boy and when I became a father, one of my favorite holiday traditions was going to the local mall (or for a treat, to Macy's on 34th Street in Manhattan) to see Santa, sit on the old guy's knee, get the annual picture and share …

Back even a few years ago, people sent christmas cards. Now, including me, I have sent an e-card, happy text, or left a holiday greeting on social media communities. So what do you think? Are you a modern day happy holiday wisher or a traditionalist? Do you think that modern …

I came across an [URL="http://dailyme.com/story/2009121300001020/technology-narrowing-broadening-experiences.html"]interesting post[/URL] today by the Kansas City Star's Eric Adler suggesting that technology is robbing us of serendipity, those playful moments of spontaneous discovery. For example, he wonders when the last time a young person went into a library or book store and just found a …

I just read on a blog about Web 3. 0 - collective intelligence and how twitter helped expedite this. But dont you consider Twitter to be part of Web 2.0. Then what would you consider Web 3.0 then? I remember reading on wiki that web 3.0 was semantic driven. Then …

As social media gains more popularity and frequent use, many news outbreaks have started on twitter or other forms of social media just to be validated by established more expensive media. So with this issue becoming more commonplace, do you think that one day, there will be no more established …

What if you had access to the millions of tweets that flow to and from Twitter users every day? Perhaps you'd build something like [url=http://www.daniweb.com/news/story240308.html]PostRank[/url], which amasses them along with other data from social media sites to trackcyber-reaction to posted articles. Or maybe you would filter them by demographic and …

Yes, there are countless number of social media tools but none were able to give me just the answer to: 1. how many threads on "topic a" 2. how many original posts on topic a? 3. how many responses on topic a? Perhaps Radian6 can give me these metrics but …

The British Government's decision to throw £30 million on getting everybody online is of course laudable in its way. The idea is to save a lot of money - and as the last European country still in recession goodness knows we could do with it - by taking Government services …

I just read a nifty new project that Google is testing out - Google Goggles - you take a picture and ask Google what it is. I like the semantic aspect of it.

I was pretty sure I wasn't the only person who cooked Thanksgiving dinner in front of, not a propped-up cookbook, but a laptop. It turns out the [I]New York Times[/I] agrees. In fact, the paper did an [URL="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/26/dining/26search.html?_r=2"]analysis[/URL] of search terms by region and by time, to see what conclusions …

I just read an article that said NYS is planning to issue Emergency Alerts on the XBOX Live. So will this type of interrutption cause you to stay away from that video game?

As we know, Facebook and many other online sites collect our personal and site behavior for behavioral targeting. Think of it as free information exchange. So if Facebook or another online community you belong to allows you to opt out, would you do it?

I noticed that my gmail login allows me to use other google appls and search engine but it also records everything. So an idea came to my mind - do you think that Google can easily search a user and generate a list of search terms the user have visited?

There is all this fuss about Cyber Monday. The holiday itself was officially coined and in circulation by 2005 after the Retail Society reviewed previous year data. I know I shopped since I found a good deal on overstock but most of the other sites I visited, I did not …

This is the christmas season and back in the day (even a few years ago), people wrote cards. Now, I dont even pick up a pen anymore. So what do you think? Does sending a "Happy holiday" on your facebook page suffices?

Is there an easy or efficient way to convert Facebook Friends into Fans of a Facebook Page? Is there a facebook migration program or something? Or is it just the old fashion way of just asking each friend to become fans of a page?

I just read an article that just this past weekend, South Korea saw its first iPhone. As phones are getting smarter and smarter with its technology and apps, I wonder if you would just buy a smart phone just to be more socially connected?
