ShopItMedia.com - Social Network Advertising  

Posted by: shilpz in , , , , ,


Are you looking for a way to monetize Facebook, MySpace, Bebo et al? This company offers solutions that are geared both towards advertisers and publishers, and these include demographic targeting that takes into account location, gender and age. For its part, publishers are provided advertisements that are pre-filtered by way of ad tags. You can procure as many of these tags as you wish, and put them into practice right away. For the time being, only publishers will be able to use the site to the full, as some adjustments are still taking place regarding the advertising services on offer. If you are a publisher you can get started by furnishing some basic contact and profile information and submitting the URL of your newly-launched application. This solution is presented by Triana Global, and it has launched recently (that is why some features are not already fully implemented). If you would like further information, a contact form is included as part of the “About” page. You can also reach this Los Angeles-based team at media@shopit.com in order to dispel any doubts that you might have.

Posted by: shilpz in , , , ,


There are many things going on in the world nowadays, and there’s really no way to keep up with them. Whether it be a birthday party, your parents’ anniversary, or your graduation, keeping track of events is hard.

Some people use online calendars and Facebook, but what about other events that are beyond your control? That’s where CalFeed.com comes in. With it, you’ll be able to keep track of events in your area, allowing you to know what’s going on and when. This is great for the social sleuth, who is always on the lookout for things that might be interesting. Activities are varied, and should provide you with the wide selection of things you’ve always wanted to do.

You can receive event alerts for your area through Twitter, emails, RSS feeds, etc., so there’s no need to worry about missing out on anything. On the whole, a very useful site.

Twippr.Webs.com - Twitter Meets PayPal  

Posted by: shilpz in , , , , , ,

Oh Twitter, how versatile you are. There’s so much that can be done through Twitter, that Twippr.webs.com shouldn’t come as a surprise. With this new service for the increasingly popular (and almost, if not already, mainstream) Twitter, you’ll be able to send money, much like you would with PayPal.

All you have to do is follow the site through Twitter, send a message that says how much you want to send and to who, and they’ll take care of the rest, using your PayPal account. Why should you care about this? Well, because it’s basically the most useful Twitter
apps has been created for a while. Without leaving your Twitter account, you’ll be able to settle debts, send money to your friends (what’s a better gift than cash?) and do whatever else you want.

It would be interesting to see other businesses adopt this model. For example, can you imagine doing your online shopping through Twitter? That would be huge, and Twippr is on the right path.

Song.ly - Sharing Music The Twitter Way  

Posted by: shilpz in , ,


Can you be defined as a bit of a tweetaholic? Are you keen on listening to music while online? That is quite a common combination, and the solution this review revolves about is geared towards people with these two likes.

In general terms, Song.ly makes for sharing links leading to online audio files via Twitter. That is, you submit the link in question and the same will be transformed into a short link for micro-sharing that you can put across by tweeting.

The one thing you must understand is that the track itself must be hosted online – Song.ly does not offer the option to download the audio file to your computer. It does, however, include a built-in player that will let your friends listen to the song on the spot.

This service is still in its formative stages, and it will be interesting to see where it heads to from here. I think that full incorporation with other browses besides Firefox should top the list of priorities. What do you think?

Hordit.com - Store Anything Then Share It  

Posted by: shilpz in , , ,


Most are saying that the cloud is the future. You know, the theory that you can keep all of your information online, in order to access it from any computer. Well, if you’re a believer in the cloud, then you’re going to love Hordit.com. With the site’s service, you’ll be able to store anything, be it pictures, spreadsheets, PDF files, links, articles, etc.

What does this mean? Well, that you’ll be able to keep track of your online life no matter where you are, all you need is an internet connection. Setting up the service is easy, all you have to do is sign up and start uploading things. Links and files are all neatly organized, allowing you to find them when you need to bring them back.
The downside to this? The download speed seems to be a little slow for our taste, making downloading big files a bit of a hassle.

In no way should this deter you from using the service, as it’s one of the few sites that allows you to keep everything in store, without differentiating from files, links, and videos.

1Click2Destiny.com - Social Bookmarking Mashup  

Posted by: shilpz in , , ,

What do you get when you mix Google’s “I’m feeling lucky” button with the most popular social bookmarking tools? You get 1click2destiny.com. With the site, you’ll be able to come across some of the most shared and highest rated articles in the web, with one click.

It is a mashup, so you know it uses some of the most popular social bookmarking APIs, which in turn will allow you to know what’s popular in Digg, StumbleUpon, and Reddit. The site adds an aura of mysticism to the whole “random article” thing. You might stumble into something that changes your life, but chances are you’ll find a very interesting article to read.

If you’re a sucker for mysticism and luck (some call it serendipity), then you’re going to love this site. If you’re not into that kind of thing, you’ll find a new way to read interesting articles in this site. Take it for a spin, who knows what you’ll find?

Twtwlst.com - A Twitter Wish List App  

Posted by: shilpz in , , ,



A new Twitter app that goes by a hard-to-pronounce name, Twtwlst can be defined as a gift registry that is free and open to any person who desires to give it a try. The system makes for creating wish lists for very different occasions: birthdays, baby showers, graduations… and once a list has been put together, it can be easily embedded on any website or profile page for all to see and act upon.




It goes without saying that the lists themselves adhere to the character length that sets micro-sharing apart. The one aspect that must be mentioned is that when listing out each item you will be able to provide a link where that specific product can be readily purchased by your friends and peers. Other than that, the site is completely intuitive, and - in the same vein of other apps that have been developed by the twapps team - there is not even need to register or create an account in order to get going. Just station your browser at www.twtwlst.com and see whether it will accommodate your needs or not in person.
