I loved FB because it wasn’t myspace and wasn’t full of junk, spam and porn and when it opened to everyone, i was afraid it would become just like that. I think people opted for FB over MySpace because of so many of the reasons people are becoming disenchanted with FB right now. This reminds me of Myspace 3 years ago.

Seth Godin predicted that RSS would kill email. Well, it’s certainly weathered the wooden stakes of pundits and the introduction of IM, RSS, Skype, MySpace, Facebook & Twitter quite well. As for email, it’s been declared dead by more pundits, journalists, and entrepreneurs than I care to count. October 2007. March 2009.

You can also set up various searches from Google, Twitter, etc and run the RSS feeds from each search through Yahoo Pipes and have the resulting feed delivered to your inbox or RSS reader to monitor ongoing. Socialmention.com is basically a social search engine, if the business name is unique it can be a good option. Hope that helps!

I think twitter is more of a heavily curated rss reader/feeder rather than a portal, and I suspect that presenting twitter to new users as more of a friendly way to use rss that as a way to push conversation with strangers would help quite a bit.

Facebook and/or MySpace are useful social networks where you can build outposts (see next list). Build RSS outposts on Facebook. Add Flog Blog, and several other RSS tools. Build a similar outpost on MySpace, if your audience might be there. There are 60+ rss readers in my blog, I write daily with at least 1 article.
