You sold me on Meetr - I often do those calculations in my head as I sit through meetings. The concept is great - but the app has awhile to go on the interface.
The interface only allows touch enry on salary - no typing - and the touch is not very easy to use if you have big clumsy fingers.
Not very easy to customize and save salaries.
So the CONCEPT is there, but I don't know if I will get my 1.99 of value with this version - but there is always an update coming!
I use google talk as my primary chat resource, is that different from gchat? I've never been to a hangout, at least not to the googke kind. I do use google plus, pretty much the way I use twitter, quietly following people or putting them in my circles or whatever, sharing things to them along with 'liking' them on facebook or 'pinning' them on pinterest. The social Internet is for me mostly about getting people to listen to my Internet radio show or otherwise participate in some activity I'm promoting; I do confess to having some fun interacting with people I haven't seen in years, though. But that's almost always on facebook.
Hey, she sure boosted the her company account's following and amplification. There's something to boast about on the resume and hope that the hiring manager doesn't seek too much context!
I'll start using that French word as soon as I figure out how to pronounce it. My french pronunciation is tres atrocious.
HMV is going to get the last word on that social media coordinator, who I expect is never going to be hired for that kind of work again. What an idiot.
Layoffs happen. Take a week off, brush up your LinkedIn profile, and move on.
I was surprised that no one at HMV really 'got' social media other, apparently, from the woman they laid off. It goes against their whole image -- or maybe it shows why the company is now in some form of financial problem, I guess.
I bet if I made a wildly successful online service of some kind (such as, for example, a secure email provider), and then connected a social network to it and linked the accounts of users of the former to new, mandatory accounts on the latter, my social network would be deemed successful by those metrics too.

As Mitch Wagner discussed today, Yahoo is acquiring Tumblr. The big Internet debate at the moment is whether Tumblr will be good or bad for Yahoo. Regardless of their stances on the future of Yahoo itself, many claim that Yahoo will somehow ruin Tumblr.
Has China stolen a march on the West, developing an Internet architecture that is not only based on IPv6, but is also inherently secure from both internal and external attack?
Recently, the Obama administration has been of two minds where privacy rights are concerned. On one hand, you have an administration that vowed to veto CISPA and mandated open data for government websites. On the other hand, you have an increasingly out-of-control Department of Justice on a fishing expedition at AP and demanding legislation to let the FBI wiretap private, encrypted communications and levy fines if a company fails to comply.
The apartment and house sharing service, Airbnb, now requires members to verify their identities by demonstrating a presence on the web, and by either scanning a government ID or entering detailed personal details. Other enterprises should take a close look at Airbnb's verification policies.
New York's Metropolitan Transit Authority is conducting a pilot test of digital kiosks to guide subway users to where they want to go more efficiently and at lower cost.
The whole Amazon.reader debate is a double-stupid. It's stupid to think that there's any e-book buyer who doesn't know Amazon's URL, and it was stupider to let ICANN launch the whole free-form TLD initiative to start with.
While NFC's original goal was to enhance mobile commerce applications, it is finding its way into a number of other uses, which is creating both opportunity as well as challenges for IT departments.
