Not long ago , Yahoo is launching a secret weapon call “Yahoo meme”  that targeting the micro blogging/statusphere , i believe this is more aimining on tumblr style of service, in stead of status base service like twitter. I manage to get the invite and beta testing the service, just want to share some of my view.

yahoo-meme-dashboard

As you can see the dashboard interface, you are allow to post 4 type of media , there are follow feature for social purpose and repost feature for reblogging, one of the important feature that tumblr is missing will be the comment feature. Yahoo meme weakness will be the permalink of post, currently the url strucuture is not really SEO friendly. There are no option for you to customize your meme currently, but  there are some very clean looking theme available for you to change.

That’s all for my short review, you can visit my yahoo meme or leave your comment here to request a meme invite , i still have 6 more invite to send.

I might be slow, but until now i just realiase there is big banner on top of twitter, i seldom visit the twitter site, that’s why i m not sure since when the big banner is on top.

I just wonder will this work ? if i compare plurk with twitter, i feel that twitter more like a service that you will use a 3rd party tools to access it , it doesn’t have some very personal feature like plurk, which you must login tthe main site to use it. The example i m talking is like those action “ask”, “say”,”share” and the time line.

The long banner on top of you twitter home page

You can choose to minimize it and it will become a smaller tab beside the menu bar.

twitter-ads-alert-after-minimize.jpg

this raise a question, if twitter really go commercial, will you spend $$ on it ?

I think begining of last weekend Jaiku was down for a few day and the main reason is they are moving to google app engine , which mean they will be integrate into google infrastructure.

Now they are back online and the first shot will be no more limitation on invitation, i believe before this , each user is having 10 invitation only. It seem like Jaiku will be back to active mode again.

I believe a lot of people might think , is it too late ? twitter is almost the mainstream , plurk is represent the new wave and there is open source version – identi.ca , it seem like Jaiku have a tough war to fight.

Currently i m using Jaiku as a lifestream service – my jaiku , too bad most of my friend is either on twitter or plurk, lets see what surprize Jaiku can show us. Do leave a comment here, if you need a Jaiku invitation.

I m not sure can i consider posterous a micro blogging service, although i tag it as mciro blogging on my delicious, but i think it more consider as tumblog , which mean someting like tumblr.

So what it does is getting email from you and publish it as a blog post, sounds straight forward and i think major blog service do have this feature, the unique part of posterous is – it will host the file that you attach with your email.

Be it a doc, ppt , pdf , jpg/gif/png or mp3, it will upload to posterous and you can set it with a download link or not in your setting. You can try to put youtube url in the email, which posterous will auto embeded the player in your post, similar feature for mp3 file too.

The last cool thing posterous did is cross posting, a cool example is i write a short review attach with some image and post it to posterous , by activate the cross posting feature, it will post my image to my flickr account and at the same time posting it to my blog , all these done by just email.

A few thing to take note is , there are no theme feature yet, although is in their todo list, i can’t find any backup feature too, if i need to remove my account and backup my upload file ? One good thing is it allow you to use your own custom domain.

check out the rest of photo on my flickr. This remind me on Sandy , an email based GTD tools.

With the success of micro blogging service like twitter/tumblr , we can expect to see a few more similar service with different unique feature, youare.com is one of the latest .

What i can see youare is tryin to combine SNS with micro blogging, that’s the reason you need to fill some extra info in order for this thing work, example fill in your location, so that you find out who else is within your same location, fill in your work or education, to find user that working at similiar work or study at same place before or even fill in your status , are you single and Interested Woman/ Man ?

Although more info require to fill in in order to make this work, but there are privacy setting available, which allow you to trigger what info can be view by public. Taking on the latest lifestream idea, one of the feature web life which allow you to import your delicious link , flickr photo and youtube video. Layout design part might be the weakest , you can only tweak a few color, which cause the design don’t really give personal feeling.

Check out some of the screenshot at my flickr.

Happen to see this tool service few day ago , it’s like a cross posting service that can post to most of the micro blogging service, include twitter, jaiku , pownce and tumblr. I believe some of you guys might be using more then 1 micro blogging service and multiple service update it’s quite troublesome.

So far my testing on twitter, jaiku and tumblr working ok , all 3 services getting update immediately but tumblr display this entry twice, i wonder is it because of  tumblr v3 release causing this ? i m quite impress by some tiny thing, like after you input your username and password for other micro blogging service, it will actually verify first, when you did posting, a small animate icon will be show to inform you which service is posting now, after it complete the posting, a hyper link is show for you to access to the posted entry on the related micro blogging site.

hellotxt

actually i been hoping to develop a similiar idea like this, but who know someone did it already, geez you can’t just think sometime. Oh the only minus point of this site is not so english friendly ? some other language showing and mix with english , i think a clean up need to be done on this.

This is one of the question that my friend ask me , how do i microblogging on wordpress ?

  • Microblogging refers to publishing very short status messages or updates of two to three sentences
  • Tumblelogging refers to publishing short-form, mixed media posts that can incorporate photos and videos.

via lorelle.wordpress.com

i think the microblogging which my friend mention is include these 2 type, you can just limit yourself to write a short blog post within 140 char in wordpress, but that lost some fun of microblogging, i will suggest using twitter’s or jaiku’s client which you can find in every platform interact with wordpress. This will allow you to have best of both world, you can have fun with microblogging feature , at the same time it will generate nicely as wordpress post. These are some of the useful plugins.

  • Twitter Tools – update your twitter text to your wordpress blog
  • WP-Jaiku – update your wordpress blog to jaiku

for Tumblelogging just make use of QuickPost , which is a wordpress plugin, it will create similiar interface like tumblr , which allow you to post different media post, example post/links , photo and video, you can try a full suite of tumblelog for wordpress , which even support theme options.

i think this should be one of the hot topic this week, Google acquires Jaiku , in stead of twitter . I think there are lots of blog entry talking about this already, one of the main reason should be because Jaiku Mobile ( hints : Gphone ? )

When starting of micro blogging trends, this 2 are consider the leads of the trends, but i think Jaiku is a bit unlucky, didn’t getting as much hype as twitter . Jaiku is always my favourite , if compare to twitter . but when the people around you all is using twitter , you got not much choice.

Without social network, micro blogging is bored, one good example that i always remember is some people describe micro blogging is just like the status text that you set on your msn, to tell the rest of friend, what happen to you or what are you currently doing, but without friends that added your msn ( social network ) all those status is just meaningless.

By the way, currently Jaiku is working on the new backend ( link to google ? ) , you need invitation to register Jaiku , i still have 9 invitation, leave your email if you need one. My jaiku is https://imknight.jaiku.com , i built it when i blog about how to use Jaiku for lifestream
