Twitter and Facebook get all the press.\u00a0 But there are hundreds of social network tools and sites available.\u00a0 I use both Facebook and Twitter but also am a fan of Tumblr and Foursquare.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Tumblr<\/a> is a blend between Twitter and a Blog.\u00a0 Many use it as a blog.\u00a0 I prefer it for photographs and art.\u00a0\u00a0 It is much more visual than Twitter and the posts mean more.\u00a0 A post on Twitter is for a fleeting moment — it is disposable.\u00a0 But a post on Tumblr is more meaty.<\/p>\n

Tumblr just hit 1,000,000,000 posts.<\/p>\n

Foursquare<\/a> is a location tracking device.\u00a0 Basically the user ‘checks in’ at every location they visit.\u00a0 If they visit enough, the user can become the mayor of the place.\u00a0 It’s fun but also a bit stalkeresque.\u00a0 I do see how business can use it to promote.\u00a0\u00a0 For example, I was in Starbucks the other day.\u00a0 I went to my Foursquare account and checked in.\u00a0\u00a0 Then I looked at the nearby stores.\u00a0 The Gap was about three stores away and had a special 30% off for Foursquare users.\u00a0 I went in and shopped.\u00a0 Location-based sites have just started to blossom.<\/p>\n

Foursquare just hit their 3,000,000 user.<\/p>\n

Web-based marketing, social networking, living on the web — it is all growing.\u00a0 It is fundamentally changing the way we live.\u00a0\u00a0 Embrace it for it will not be going away…. ever.<\/p>\n

Enjoy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
