On Twitter a Retweet can be a valuable way to share information with your network, build your following and pay homage to the person retweeted. If you are in a Twitter application there is likely a RT button. On Twitter if you click the retweet link under the post it will retweet it for you but will not allow you to edit.

Well maybe, but from some of the posts I’ve seen recently there’s a lot of people out there who are upset about what they see as an invasion of privacy since you can’t even log in to see it unless you give up access to the application, which then harvests your information to create the display.

I had a very interesting conversation with a Facebook application developer today. I really do think this is important stuff, and that’s probably what Guy Kawasaki means when he calls people Twitter Nazis , I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Twitter is like having a conversation while running a marathon.

Part of my job is to try out applications, tools, networks and such so I can tell my clients if they’re worth the learning curve or a waste of their bandwidth. You visit a site and you have the option to share it on Facebook and/or Twitter from the bottom of the page. Big deal right?

Facebook shut the application down immediately, and I’m thinking that’s not exactly a bad thing. “I let people I didn’t really know into my Facebook friends and now it’s full of people I don’t really talk to.&# “My Twitter following is out of control with noise and spam&#. ARRGGGHHH!!

Looks at your blo, Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter presences and rates you by your apparent influence, activity level and authority on topics you frequently discuss. Like Momentus Media’s application it can be quite revealing to see how it scores your friends and competitors and even compare them through a nifty drag-and-drop interface.

But just posting a video, creating a Twitter account or a Facebook page will not bring droves to sit at your feet and learn from the master and it certainly won’t guarantee the success of your fundraising initiative.

On Twitter today Myspace is trending, not because it’s about Myspace but because people are suggesting Facebook is doomed to the same fate as Myspace. If you want to hide an application or a type of post (games, quizzes etc.) confused about the changes?

If you’re getting an error message on your Twitter desktop or mobile application it’s likely because Twitter recently changed the way authorization works. Read more about the Twitter API change if you’re geeky too. Open your Twitter application on your phone or desktop and check for updates.

This is where you can add other email addresses to login with, decide what applications have access to your profile, turn Google+ on on non-Google sites etc. Hmm, this is interesting since the accounts are connected to your Google profile, but so far there’s no way to say, share a message from Google+ to Twitter. Mute posts.

This year flew by and the sheer number of new social networks and applications is simply stunning. FYI profile images link to Twitter and names link to blogs or websites. Keeping on top of it all is definitely a full-time job, and for those of us who learn new stuff for fun, it’s been fantastic. Michael Martine. Denise Wakeman.
