They should add a contract option to make it easier on the camera.

Giannii you're mixed with black so you don't count :) I'm kidding. I own an HP laptop and most of my laptops have been HP up until this year. I don't think they're racist either, but you have to wonder who else they tested their software on before taking it to the public. If it wasn't tested on darker complexions what was the reason for not doing so?

I'm not on any, at least not to my knowledge. But as you said, better safe than sorry Cheryl.

Nice counter Marina. I'll have to save this for a future post! Thanks for leaving your thoughts.

Great questions Dylan. I'm not sure what you might be doing wrong with Byline, but Newsie will only download new items from the feeds you select. It won't ruin your experience by trying to download everything at once. It will save "starred" articles for later offline viewing too.

I agree Cha! I just wish they'd start working on more themes soon. Tumblr definitely has the upper hand in that department.

Well the autopost feature on Posterous makes it a must-use tool for me even though I do like how you can import feeds into Tumblr. I think Posterous has more useful features and they keep adding more on a regular basis.

If I need a Mac, I can't try it out. I'm on a PC. Though I'm working on getting an iMac for Christmas.

Corvida — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 10:49:04 -0000

I didn't click with their AIR app either. I find Seesmic for Windows much more efficient (not to mentionally visually appealing) for my Twitter needs. Tweetdeck was getting kind of bulky for me.

Coreburn this seems to be a bug within the client. Loic stopped by the comments earlier so they may have noted your feedback. If not: Fix Lists in Seesmic for Windows

Thanks Loic. Again, keep up the great work. Also check out the comments, there's some nice feedback being passed around for the team too.

Corvida — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 10:43:47 -0000

Those are great suggestions that, I agree, need to be added to make it really up to par with the Seesmic AIR app. Personally, I prefer the Facebook site, so Facebook support isn't the biggest deal for me. Seesmic for Windows allows me to focus solely on Twitter in a way that feels more efficient than using Seesmic AIR for me.

Same here Terri. I'm really looking forward to feedly putting out an iPhone app. I think it would be killer.

I agree Ahad. It really doesn't take that long to genuinely connect with someone. Sometimes we do it everyday through the most random conversations from people we don't even know. And sometimes, that makes a huge difference.

I thought I'd start with the least expensive and work my way up if I need to. So far, it looks like Reeder will do the job.

I think your masturbation observation is an absurd analogy and these tips aren't a one size fits all. They're only guidance to help others discover what is actually the best fit. While listening to music may not fit someone, reading a book might. These tips are for others to draw parallels to what might work for them too.

Re: How To Eliminate Social Media Distractions And Get Work Done

Corvida — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 13:42:39 -0000

These suggestions are to be used to help anyone's lack of focus, concentration, or motivation. One size won't fit all, but what I suggested are popular and effective ways to combat typical and average problems that take us away from our work. Disconnecting is a great way, but the majority of my readers can't afford to do that for every block, especially when they're work is online.

However just like any type of knowledge, it's only good when you use it.
