The 600,000th Visit to WebMetricsguru.com

Posted by Marshall on September 21, 2007 | Link It

Webmetricsguru.com got it's 600,000th visit sometime today…probabaly when I was sleeping. Been in Napa Valley at the XChange Conference which has been a really great experience….the first time for this conference …which has been billed as an event where thought leaders get together to debate/decide what Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 may/will be.

I have been posting less as I'm just to busy and exhausted with all the goings on here, but will be catching up to my normal once I get back to New York late this week.

Anyway, just wanted to show my stats (one more time):

Google, Facebook, MySpace and More Meet to Talk Activity StreamsReadWriteWeb January 9, 2009
<img alt="FacebookFeed.jpg" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/FacebookFeed.jpg" width="150" height="237">Last night at the offices of blogging software company <a href="http://sixapart.com">Six Apart</a>, engineers and social media specialists from a number of companies large and small met to discuss proposed standards for the future of "activity streams" - the system of displaying recent activities of your friends online. Think Facebook Newsfeed, the basic format of <a href="http://friendfeed.com/marshallk">FriendFeed</a>, or the kinds of update chronicles we're seeing now on almost every social network around the web. Sponsor <a href="http://d.openx.org/ck.php?n=13296&cb=13296"><img src="http://d.openx.org/avw.php?zoneid=861&cb=13296&n=13296" border="0" alt="" align="right"></a> Who was in the room? People from Google, MySpace, Facebook, Yahoo!, Nokia, Comcast and a variety of forward looking small startup companies. Thanks to the magic of mobile streaming video, you can be a virtual fly on the wall of this important meeting. Nokia's Ian Kennedy captured the conversation on his phone using Kyte.com and <a href="http://www.kyte.tv/ch/195066-ian-cam">posted it online</a>. <center><img alt="ActivityStreams.jpg" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/ActivityStreams.jpg" width="562" height="424"></center> What are activity streams all about? People are taking actions and publishing content on a wide variety of websites these days; pulling all that data together, with a variety of different permission levels for viewing and different types of data, is much easier said than done. Just like a standard size of railroad track helped the trains get across the US like they had never done before (thus opening a new era of commerce and communication) so to do all these social media signals need some common format standards to travel from one website to another. Thought leader <a href="http://factoryjoe.com">Chris Messina</a> explains it all quite succinctly <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/redgee/videos/39/">in this video from a related meeting</a> over the holidays. <center><embed src="http://www.viddler.com/player/5094f216/" width="437" height="288" allowScriptAccess="never" allowFullScreen="true" name="viddler" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></center> For a detailed summary of last night's meeting on this topic and some good background links, see Comcast's John McCrea's <a href="http://therealmccrea.com/2009/01/08/live-blogging-from-the-activity-streams-meetup/">liveblogging of the session</a>. The hot debates were how to handle media files in activity feed streams and some tension between the big, more proprietary social networks like Facebook and the small, radically open projects like <a href="http://diso-project.org/">DiSo</a>, the Distributed Social Networking Project. Any disagreement aside, though, we find it pretty remarkable that all these heavy hitters are sitting at the same table, along with a variety of small startups, to talk about the future of online community and conversation in the form of activity streams. <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/having_conquered_flickr_and_th.php">Activity streams are already a big deal</a>, but if these conversations can be fruitful, the results will be as big as the point in history when customers of different email providers became able to email each other or different telephone company customers became able to call each others' phones. Unlike those historic transformations, though, much of the planning for this one is being done out in the open. Not just through open public meetings like last night's, but thanks to live mobile video, live blogging with comments and microblogging technologies, this conversation can include the participation of anyone in the world. <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_facebook_myspace_activitystreams.php#comments-open">Discuss</a> <a href="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~at/YUr_i-zGpYlvxzFYCx9kNw2mgzg/a"><img src="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~at/YUr_i-zGpYlvxzFYCx9kNw2mgzg/i" border="0" ismap></a><div> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=B5Mw9EFM"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?d=1035" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=ALk6Kpjl"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?d=41" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=1qXAwn8b"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?i=1qXAwn8b" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=SdN7XMQo"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?i=SdN7XMQo" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=Lz3QlOyG"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?i=Lz3QlOyG" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=R9CUIYFf"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?d=52" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=jqkjfuQl"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?d=1034" border="0"></a> </div><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/readwriteweb/~4/T050fNN433E" height="1" width="1">

Amazon's New Management Console Makes Setting up a Server in the Cloud EasyReadWriteWeb January 9, 2009
<img alt="amazon-logo.png" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/amazon-logo.png">Amazon today <a href="http://aws.typepad.com/aws/2009/01/manage-amazon-ec2-with-new-webbased-console.html">announced</a> its new web-based <a href="https://console.aws.amazon.com/">AWS Management Console</a>, which makes it very easy for users of Amazon <a href="http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/">EC2 cloud computing </a>service to set up and manage their servers. As cloud computing companies are starting to offer a relatively standard set of features and uptime guarantees, user-friendly interfaces are clearly a way for service providers like Amazon to differentiate themselves from the competition. Sponsor <a href="http://d.openx.org/ck.php?n=13292&cb=13292"><img src="http://d.openx.org/avw.php?zoneid=861&cb=13292&n=13292" border="0" alt="" align="right"></a> At the same time, however, it should also be noted that Cloud Ave <a href="http://www.cloudave.com/link/amazon-web-services-makes-it-easy-for-the-hackers-oops-users">points out </a>that Amazon's reliance on relatively weak passwords could be a potential security issue. Currently, you can only manage your EC2 instances through the new console, but over time, Amazon will give users the ability to mange other AWS services like its <a href="http://aws.amazon.com/s3/">S3</a> storage service. <img alt="ec2_aws_management_console.png" src="http://www.readwriteweb.com/images/ec2_aws_management_console.png"> <h2>Ease of Use</h2> The new console makes it especially easy for first-time users to set up their instances on EC2. While you can choose from a bewildering array of community-created instances (think custom Ubuntu mail servers), Amazon will present you with a sane amount of 'quick start' instances and relatively conservative security settings. Amazon also created a <a href="http://media.amazonwebservices.com/console/AwsConsole.html">great screencast</a> that walks you through creating your first EC2 instance. While using Amazon's web services was already pretty manageable thanks to tools like <a href="http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?externalID=609&categoryID=88">Elasticfox</a>, this new console gives users an easy way to control their instances, while also allowing new users to start using EC2 without too much hassle. If you always wanted to experiment with EC2, but were intimidated by the set-up process, now would be a good time to give it a try. <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/amazons_new_aws_management_console.php#comments-open">Discuss</a> <a href="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~at/mVXHDjYFJU5H4CsXKCUHL9tEstE/a"><img src="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~at/mVXHDjYFJU5H4CsXKCUHL9tEstE/i" border="0" ismap></a><div> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=CSa6yTS2"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?d=1035" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=z5NLY5jt"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?d=41" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=uEzOUOG3"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?i=uEzOUOG3" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=ntFT7OgT"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?i=ntFT7OgT" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=aWd9W6y3"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?i=aWd9W6y3" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=GLvOkYNg"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?d=52" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?a=FnQ4I64X"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/readwriteweb?d=1034" border="0"></a> </div><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/readwriteweb/~4/uW4oIXh-__Y" height="1" width="1">

Tweetvisor.com - A New Twitter InterfaceKillerStartups.com - all January 9, 2009
 What it does If you are a tweetaholic, you can’t really complain about the amount of support for your best-loved platform. Tweetvisor is a new addition to that wide family of tools and applications, and it can be termed an activity-displayer which also lets you reply to any tweet you have received on the spot. The implementation of this system is roughly as follows: you have a set of sidebars where messages are clearly displayed for your viewing convenience, and a search tool is provided for you to look up any term that interests you right away. Next to this search tool you will also find a list of keywords showcasing your interests, based on what you tweet the most. A quite remarkable aspect that merits a mention is the option to switch from one Twitter account to the other easily. Those who keep their personal and businesses activities as separate as possible and opt to go for different accounts can tell you how vital such an option is, and how much time could be saved this way. In finishing, this is a very interesting solution if only because the emphasis is on keeping things as smooth-flowing as possible. You can reach it at the provided address and see whether it resonates with you or not, but chances are you will quite like it. In their own words “Real-time updates about your favorite topics, news and tweets.” Why it might be a killer It is a free and flexible tool that does its job with distinction. Some questions How configurable is it?
