It is no secret that John Edwards is on Twitter (and about 1000 other social software type networks) and Barack Obama also tweets quite regularly. To many this may seem like overkill, but in many ways it makes sense, although it can probably be considered ‘preaching to the choir’. I believe that dedicated followers of [...]

Should we fear duplicate content?
UPDATE: Please make sure to read the comments for this post as they provide you with a more nuanced description of what actually happens. Seems I kinda jumped the gun on this one. Yes, apparently so.

I better watch out, or I’ll end up nothing but a Jaiku fan-boy… Yeah, it’s no secret that I think Jaiku is one of the coolest mobile apps (and so much more) to hit the world in a long time. Oftentimes people ask me what’s so great about Jaiku, and up until now I’ve rambled [...]
