There’s been a mad dash of people invading Twitter and it’s getting to the point where it would be neigh impossible to track every person of interest.
Enter Tweetmeme, a Techmeme for Twitter!
Just like Techmeme, Tweetmeme looks for hot topics and aggregates the conversations into a list so you can see at a glance what people are discussing.
By having hot topics and seeing at a glance what people are discussing, you can easily make your blog the ’site to visit’. You just might be the first ‘Twitter Celebrity’! but only if you get over to Tweetmeme.

As Gabe Rivera, builder of this software, says:
“At this moment, the next big story in technology may reside on a blog you’ve never heard of or a news site you don’t have time to scan……”
What a trip! Read more of what he has to say and how this can keep you on top of the ‘hill’.
WAIT! There’s more. Kinda like Christmas all over again. Two for the price of one. And it’s FREE.
Want to know who’s on the top? Just visit the Techmeme Leaderboard.
Who’s your daddy!

Here’s a nifty tool that can help you get organized.
You can schedule text messages, remind others about at event, bring up birthday reminders and have your to-do items sent to you throughout the day – and a whole lot more.
And here’s something else for you to chew on – this tool was introduced to me by someone who commented on one of my previous Tool Time Friday’s.
If you don’t give, you don’t get. Get it?

What’s Googlewashing? Bet you wished you watched the video, huh?
Just kidding.
(Oh, feed subscribers, please click through if you can’t see the MSNBC video above.)
Googlewashing is the process of burying negative results about your company in Google. Some companies offer to go into Google and delete those results for you. Should you spend money on this? Probably not, and here’s why.
- People are going to be unsatisfied sometimes even if you do your absolute best. The important thing is what you do about it.

Truth time? I never truly, deeply loved Facebook like I love, say, Sphinn. You could take Facebook out of my life and I’d be pissed at first, but I’d adjust, and life on the planet would continue. Take away my Sphinn and furniture is going to move around in here.
Yes, I love Sphinn, but I’m not an SEO specialist anymore, haven’t been for years. Why not is another story I’ll tell you later. Let’s get back to the point…

Now don’t any of you start bitching about this not having to do with Free Traffic or I just might have to smack you upside your pointy little heads. I’ll bet you a dollar to a doughnut that 0-100% of the people that visit this site and comment are also MBLer’s. How’s that for some great stats!
How many of you have noticed that since Yahoo! took over – things have gotten a little ‘clunkier’? And what’s with this ‘validate’ my site crap – I mean, I’m not stupid, but trying to follow their directions to have my site validated is insane. I follow their instructions – and bupkiss – I even went to their help section – oh lord, what cheesehead wrote that – and I emailed them as well – and you know the results of that.
So here’s the deal. A short time ago most of us who are MBLer’s got an email from Ian Kennedy, Product Manager. How exciting. For those of you who didn’t get it, didn’t read, read it and don’t remember it – here it is:
