Using iGoogle and FriendFeed to tame the Social media madness
Friday, 30 May 2008
Digg!

 

Ok, a friend was musing at my social activities and link collecting habits while observing, “you have no life” - considering my info obsessions. So let me take a few moments to explain one of the many ways one can organize info to save sanity…

For starters, I have been finding it useful to play with my latest toy; FriendFeed. From here I can comment on blog posts, reply to Twitter conversations, share my fav links, see friend’s Stumbles and much more… The best part is that it is all from a single interface.

Not only can I track all of my mates activities in one place, but also keep topic focussed discussions rolling in some FriendFeed Rooms; Learn SEO - Search Engine Marketing - Social Media - The Sphinn Zone

Next we want to bring all of that back to a central location, for me that’s with my Google reader – so some widgets and the iGoogle home page get called into action;

iGoogle makes things work

Now I can monitor my Feed Reader and FriendFeed activity at a glance. In addition, we can comment, like smiley, respond to twitter and more from the FF widget. As you can see I have nine different Tabs in my iGoogle, so there are many ways to segment and localize information.

Hmmm… maybe a closer look into my mysterious iGoogle mahem is in order – a post for another day.

There are other tools I use, but that is how I manage things here… just waiting for my Sphinn widget to read, submit, comment and vote remotely and we’re in business ;0)

Excellent sharing of ideas! I just wonder - this gadget in the middle, what's it? Something you created yourself? I would be interested if you could point me to where I could get something like that!

Actually that is one of the standard widgets for the iGoogle home page. If you search the widgets for 'Google Services' - you should find it.

It lists all the G services so you can access them with one click from G-mail to Analytics and Custom search engines... whole bag.

Social Media truly is madness if you don't get organized. Thanks Dave for informing us on this great tool to help us get organized.

Hey Garrett, I was thinking about digging into my iGoogle set up and posting more... it is a handy way to keep things together... of remotely, off the desktop...

Congrats again on the new addition ;0) --
