Review: Seesmic Web, web based Twitter client


Review: TweetDeck desktop Twitter client
![]()

Perhaps that is the problem. In my opinion, TweetDeck’s user-interface appears to be a work-in-progress waiting to progress as new features are developed instead. Recent updates haven’t done much to improve the interface, and it certainly could use some love. The tiny buttons which are the key to most of TweetDeck’s features look a bit out of place, and the default color scheme is as dark and gloomy as the TweetDeck website. While you can change the color scheme in the settings window, the default colors are not my idea of a good first impression.
FTC endorsement regulations already apply online


What they fail to report, is that FTC regulations already apply to bloggers and their blogs. In fact, these regulations apply to use of email, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, just to name a few.
Blogs and discussion boards are both discussed in the FTC’s “Guidelines Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, Notice of proposed changes,” but not as newly regulated media. The pending changes to the guide introduce new example scenarios intended to illustrate how FTC regulation may apply in some situations. The guide is not the definition of the law, nor does it encompass every possible scenario in which the FTC can take action. The sole purpose for the guide is to act as, well, a guide.

Social Media, Public Perception, Honesty
These are interesting times in which we live. Never before have so many people been able to spread their message to so many people as now. Social Media is breaking down barriers which only a few years ago seemed impossible to cross. With a few keystrokes and the click of a button, you can get your message out to the world instantly. Of course… that isn’t always a good thing.
Take Twitter for example. In addition to keeping in touch with friends, many people utilize Twitter to stay connected with colleagues and clients and build a personal brand by focusing on what they are doing in their professional lives. The added level of interactivity gives clients a sense of empowerment while introducing a passive referral system to a one’s brand.
This is where things get a little tricky, however.
