Explaining the Widgets

Posted on January 4, 2008 at 5:33 pm (731) by Alex in General

As you can see on your right hand side, there is a sidebar with widgets in it. I just want to explain what services you see and what you can do with them.

Startingimage with Last.FM.

Last.FM is a Social Music site, The idea is that you let Last.FM see what you are listening to so they can find neighbours. These Neighbours are other users of Last.FM that listen to the same stuff as you do. and also other artists. And because  they like artists that you like, you might like the other artists they listen to. So you can discover different artists. View my profile here

Next up Twitter . imageSo what is Twitter?

It’s hard to explain, Twitter.com says:

Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?

So it’s like a mini blog where during the day you answer the question: ‘What are you doing?’ There’s only one rule (I think). A ‘twitter’ can only have 140 characters. have a look and see if you like it. My profile here

And the last one today: ‘Flickr’

Flickr logo. If you click it, you'll go homeFlickr is a photo sharing site, you upload you’re photos and you can have you’re photo’s online for friends to view. this is also a good way to let people Rate your pictures. Check out my photo stream here
