Web 2.0: Music, Movies, and Friends Made Easy
Do you know about Blip.fm? It’s an awesome site! You can look up all the great music you like and add it to your playlist. Become a DJ! I just started today because I’m always reading Tweets from @frankparker (who’s bluebrummie on Blip.fm) and enjoying the tunes he posts. So, I decided to become EclecticRocker there and just do some of my own tuning. Totally fun!
Here’s another set of apps for Twitter you might enjoy: http://twtapps.com This is cool… TwtCard… Twitter greetings, like greeting cards. You choose a little square-head icon and write a Tweet message, then just send the link. Cute.
With TwtPoll you create a poll with a 140-character question, and TwtPoll keeps the stats. Neat!
TwtVite lets you create an event and invite all your Twitter friends.
I swear, every day people are coming up with the coolest Twitter apps and it’s tons of fun. If you aren’t on Twitter, you’re really missing the biggest thing online right now.
My Space?
That was so… yesterday. 
And while we’re on the subject of cool Web 2.0 apps, have you tried TechSmith’s Jing yet? You can create short films of your screen, kind of like Camtasia. Well… that figures since Camtasia is a TechSmith product. Jing doesn’t have all the bells and whistles, but still pretty cool. And what’s really cool is that it’s free.
Oh, and there’s Animoto. Did you see the testimonials montage that Tellman made for the launch? Wow! Sweet. Check it out here: http://budurl.com/OEtestimonials I have to say that it really touched me to see how many people we help. It’s not about the money, really, is it? It’s about the relationships and the people we can make happier in life. God, I love my job! Anyway, Animoto allows you to take photos and text and such and upload it. You choose music, and Animoto makes a really cool professional-looking movie from your stuff. Neat-o times two.
There are so many cool things to do in Web 2.0, and a lot of it is totally SEO helpful. Get ou there and explore!

Hello. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your information! I am downloading web 2.0 as we speak. With all of the file formats that music and movies come in nowadays it gets a bit unorganized. It’s nice to see one library type program to access them all from.

The Twitter apps that continue to come out keep on amazing me. My favorite so far is TwitterFox. It’s a great add on for firefox that allows you to read and post to twitter without ever going to twitter.com and it’s all contained in a little T in the lower right corner of the browser.

Oh, totally. Everyone I know is like, “Tweet Deck,” but I find it annoying and it doesn’t behave. With TwitterFox, I can look when I feel like it, see what’s up and go on my way or Tweet, if the spirit moves me. Right from Firefox. Thanks for that comment!
I’m not alone.
