Excerpt: The BBC has relaunched the website version of its popular iPlayer service in an effort to give the online telly catch-up service a Web2.0rhea sheen. The Corporation said it had simplified its iPlayer by making TV and radio shows easier to search for via its website. The Beeb has also tweaked the interface to allow users to personalise their iPlayer “experience”, and dipped the whole thing in some social networking dye. Viewers and listeners are now able to share and recommend programmes to friends on Facebook, Twitter and within the iPlayer itself. Interestingly, the Beeb has not only allowed Facebook and Twitter to[More]

Excerpt: Recently I had a chance to spend some quality time with the folks at Bitly, getting to know more about their terrific service. There’s a wealth of data there if you dig in. Not all of my Twitter clients integrate with the Bitly API yet, but I find myself seeking out apps that do allow me to enter my account info since it gives me rich analytics and (hopefully) insights into how I can be more effective. If you like Bitly, here’s a killer tip that Andrew Coen, Bitly’s co-founder, recently shared with our team. You can actually shorten a link[More]

Excerpt: Google Operating System reports that Google is testing a feature for signing in using multiple accounts. While the post itself has a screenshot (which you can see above), it does not include any instructions on how to enable this functionality. This is obviously a limited or closed-beta test; the question is just how limited it is. This functionality is not just “useful” – it is often vital. I have one account tied into an AdWords account, another account tied into Analytics, and yet a third Apps account. Merging them is impossible, especially as long as Google Apps doesn’t support Reader. Having a[More]

Excerpt: China ‘blocks YouTube video site’ China is reported to have blocked the YouTube video-sharing website because it has been carrying video of soldiers beating monks and other Tibetans. The date and location of the footage, posted by a Tibetan exile group, cannot be ascertained. A Chinese government spokesman would not confirm whether YouTube had indeed been blocked. China has a history of blocking websites which carry messages it views as politically unacceptable. In most of China, YouTube has suddenly become inaccessible. The site has been carrying a graphic video released by Tibetan exiles, which shows hundreds of uniformed Chinese troops swarming through a Tibetan[More]

Excerpt: We all love Google and its very famous web mail service, Gmail. I think that Gmail is the best email client as compared to others. Even I had tried lots of other services too but I always came back to Gmail. And after Google enabled the sidebar gadget service in last October, I proudly become the loyal user of Gmail. The best part is these gadgets really worked well on my Gmail sidebar and they don’t even clutter the interface. Everyday lots of applications are made by Google and third-parties to add tons of functionality to Gmail and to make it[More]
