Re: Setting up a linux web development environment on Vista

Thanks for explaining about the kernel update. Now it makes sense! VBox additions certainly work fab for me, allowing proper full-screen linux. It's great.

Re: How To Lose a Fortune in Social Media

Fluid Creativity — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 11:43:59 -0000

The money spent on a website seems to depend on who the client is, it's as backwards as the football transfer market.

Who would spend $16 million on social networking software? They are being taken for a ride.

Reminds us of a story here in the UK. Birmingham City Council spend £2.8 million on a website that doesn't even come close to working...

This is great. Social media at its finest. Whoever was put in charge of this project has done an excellent job...

Re: Tumblr Submissions: Create Your Own Community-Powered Blog

This is a fantastic addition to an already wonderful service. If tumblr was able to integrate seamlessly to third party applications in a similar way to twitter, then I think it would gain significantly more users quite rapidly.

Could it be the service that kills Wordpress?

Re: Facebook’s ’09 Revenue to Top $500 Million

Fluid Creativity — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 09:45:59 -0000

With 200 million active users and revenue of just $500 million, that amounts to $2.5 per user per year. That isn't enough money.

Re: How to Build a Strong Reputation With Blog Comments

Fluid Creativity — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 05:00:44 -0000

Since we installed Discus over at our blog we've seen a decent increase in comments. I'm amazed that I've been online for so many years and have never registered a gravatar before...

Re: Twollars: An Innovative Approach to Fundraising on Twitter

Fluid Creativity — Tue, 26 May 2009 09:24:45 -0000

It may or may not be a good idea but try explaining it to someone who has just started using twitter/the internet and they won't understand it or see the point in it.

Unless you can lock down what the service does in one or two sentences I think it becomes very difficult to promote it.

Re: What is the carbon footprint of twitter?

Fluid Creativity — Tue, 26 May 2009 08:36:16 -0000

It's the number of people who visit twitter.com monthly...I figured it was as good an estimation as any as to the number of twitter users.

Re: You Ignore Ads; VideoEgg Thinks They Can Change That

Fluid Creativity — Thu, 07 May 2009 06:11:28 -0000

People do ignore ads, and a blog as large as mashable wouldn't want to sing from the hill tops about how social media users either:

a) Ignore online ads
b) Block them completely with ad block plus.

Check out our blog post on this very same topic, it's much more cutting!

Re: The Retweeting Movement Adds Some Powerful New Tools

Fluid Creativity — Wed, 06 May 2009 06:52:35 -0000

Twitter needs these aggregation services to sort the wheat from the chaff. The influx of new users means there are a ton of people who aren't adding value to the network, tweetmeme and others make it easier to stay on top of what's hot and what's not.

None the less, @thejonasbrothers make regular appearances on the front page. Is this valuable? Check out our blog post on it...

Re: Twittl: The Love Child of Digg and Twitter

Fluid Creativity — Tue, 05 May 2009 09:39:45 -0000

With Britney Spears and P Diddy being in the wefollow top 25 users twitter NEEDS a new way to sort out the noise from the value.

I like the cut of twittl's jib in trying to achieve this. Maybe the digg model isn't the best suited to this sort of task, something which aggregates tweets naturally in a more concise fashion than twiturly does.

I wrote an article about this very thing over at the fluid blog, check it out.
