...and, LittleSnapper looks more PRO than Skitch... I use it regularly to upload screenshots to my blog... it does everything automatically and also gives me the HTML code to embed the image just uploaded.

QuickSilver is great and you can do much more than just launching apps, but if launching apps is the only purpose, I would recommend Namely. Very (very) light and does its job very well.

Interesting point. I thought it was more a French-Italy issue...

Just wanted to stress that MailChimp is definitely a great tool... I discovered it a few weeks ago and now I love it!

This is a big slap to the blackberry community. As a BB user, the main downside of those devices is memory. On an iPhone, you can play with a lot of apps all together, on a BB you must make choices... Not great.

Btw, that picture of Linus is great!

Well, I actually say "retweet one of his tweets you think COULD be interesting for your followers". There could be a case when you can't do anything of the three things mentioned in my post. Well, in that case the best is just doing nothing (IMHO).

Sorry but I disagree with you. I can't remember how many times my company hired pro translators to make translations of internet services / tech documents in various languages and most of the time the result was almost unusable.

In this case, Twitter made the best possible choice: 25 fluent english speaking italian passionate Twitter users. There is also a forum where we are discussing the best terms to translate some phrases or words. Twitter made a very good move, imho.

Hi Eric,
thanks for dropping by and for sharing that useful information. I mean nothing special. You say "Turkey, assuming one considers it part of Europe (we do, for these purposes), grew the most.". Most poeple in Europe tend to consider Turkey a European country already and it is also among the three countries candidates to become part of the UE. So, I'm just saying that it makes a lot of sense to consider Turkey a European country, for this kind of stats as well as for other purposes.
Best

Hi Ray, thanks for stopping by. Your case is and excellent example of a non social-media/techie/web guy who is leveraging Twitter at its best. Congrats!

It depends on how we define "noisy". People who share a lot of info on Twitter as well as people who reply a lot and engage conversations with other users are rewarded against soliloquist and "ego" kind of people.

Re: Introducing Tweerank, The Definitive Engagement Score for Twitter

filosnet — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 16:56:31 -0000

It makes sense. From my post:

I also wanted to point out that many other “famous” people in the tech industry are not necessarily influential/engaging/active on Twitter. Look at the Twitter founders: @ev has rank 61.72 and @biz has rank 54.93. Not much, if compared with less “popular” tweeps who are using Twitter way better. Well, it just reflects ther actual activity. Just 4600+ tweets since the launch of Twitter and @biz has over 1000 less. So, despite they are undoubtely VIPs in the field of technology, internet and microblogging, they don’t use Twitter in a way their followers can enjoy it.

Peter, the number of tweets you sent is very low, the number of users you are following is almost twice the number of followers you have, your account is very young. These are all points that affect your rank negatively. Check it next week, it changes dynamically.

I think that, as Dave suggests, they are paying for the stolen docs they published on their blog. It makes sense...
