Integrated Social Media Interaction
I’ve been trying to find the best environment that can help me to manage my social media interaction, all in one place. The best I ever had was Ping.fm which can provide me with easy status updates upon multiple social networks (I counted, there are at least 45 social network being supported by Ping.fm). But the lack point is, it only provides me a one way access, to broadcast my updates without any area to watch how others are doing.
NameCheap Contest this Friday!
This Friday, prepare yourself for another twitter trivia contest!
The prizes are: five domain names per hour, and for five winners will be eligible for the grand prizes that will consist of three MacBook Pros, a 16GB WiFi iPad, and a WiFi Amazon Kindle.
I’m a loyal participant in this NameCheap contest, just to let you know, I got this domain from entering their earlier contest. So there is a big chance you’ll find my twitter account enlisted in the winners list *LOL* (a little confidence won’t hurt, rite?)
How to Participate
To join this contest you have to fulfill these requirements (it is so damn simple):
- You have to own a twitter account, because that’s where we’ll play the game
- The question will be tweeted by @NameCheap, so make sure you follow them
- The prizes for domain names are actually funds for your NameCheap account, so make sure you register a NameCheap account (it’s free)
Preview bit.ly Link from Twitter
Choosing Twitter as your media of promotion is nothing new these days, and believe me it sure does the job efficiently. But there are times when someone mention something in your timeline which could be vague enough, that it lure suspicions, and the only way to tell the truth is by clicking the bit.ly link that mentioned in the tweet.
Now I don’t have to tell you about the risk that can be exposed through a single click, but here I’m going to share you one FireFox Add-ons that will help you to “peek” the content of the shortened link in those tweets.
bit.ly preview 1.272
With the bit.ly Preview Plugin for Firefox, whenever you hover over a bit.ly URL on any web page (not only Twitter, as a matter of fact), you will have a tooltip showing the Page Title, Long URL, and any Click Data available regarding the page that the URL links to.
