			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-685" title="twitter radiography" src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/LordsBird-420x370.jpg" alt="twitter radiography" width="420" height="370" /></p>
<p>Twitter ha enormi costi per l&#8217;infrastruttura e nessun ritorno economico, comunque gli utenti in costante aumento e i capitali investiti hanno condotto ai recenti accordi con Google e Bing per l&#8217;indicizzazione totale dei twit per i due motori di ricerca. Cosa c&#8217;è di davvero interessante in questo Twitter? Ci ho messo un anno, ma alla fine l&#8217;ho capito.</p>
<h3>twitter destruttura l&#8217;informazione</h3>
<p>l&#8217;obbligatoria brevità del messaggio <strong>obbliga la rimozione di molte convenzioni sociali</strong>, per esempio spesso viene ignorata la gentilezza, viene evitata la formulazione verbosa del pensiero, vengono evitate formulazioni troppo complicate dei pensieri. I pensieri devono essere resi modulari e auto esplicativi (mentre per esempio in italiano tendiamo spesso a concludere un concetto nella frase successiva, questo rallenta la comprensione di chi legge).</p>
<h3>twitter permette di comunicare senza un destinatario</h3>
<p>il fatto di scrivere messaggi che tutta la nostra lista di amici &#8220;potrebbe&#8221; leggere, rende i messaggi a volte allusivi, e permette che siano pieni di speranza. Inoltre la formulazione impersonale permette di fare domande &#8220;al nostro insieme di amici&#8221; piuttosto che ad un amico specifico, il che diventa utile in vari casi:</p>
<ul>
<li>flirting</li>
<li>espressione di pensieri che non hanno un preciso destinatario</li>
<li>e-learning granulare</li>
<li>organizzazione di eventi estemporanei</li>
</ul>
<h3>twitter è mobile</h3>
<p>per la composizione dei messaggi a lunghezza limitata twitter è anche adatto alle comunicazioni su reti di dati a consumo</p>
<h3>twitter è una porta di accesso per i pensieri della massa</h3>
<p>brevità, modularità e destrutturazione <strong>se uniti al contesto di pubblicazione</strong> dei messaggi su twitter (di solito le piattaforme mobili, cellulari ecc.) spesso producono modalità comunicative <strong>introspettive</strong> e altamente <strong>tematizzate</strong>.  scrivere un twit è spesso come lanciare un piccolo <strong>messaggio nella bottiglia</strong> al nostro micro universo di conoscenze (anche potenziali, per chi ama allargare il cerchio delle conoscenze).</p>
<h3>twitter e il cazzeggio perenne</h3>
<p>pur non avendo la possibilità di tutti i comuni social network di aggiungere annunci pubblicitari (per la stessa costruzione della struttura comunicativa), twiter ha in comune con i social network il veicolare anche molte informazioni personali ed emozionali che non hanno un diretto collegamento con le realtà lavorativa o istutuzionale. Twitter può anche essere associato a una valvola di sfogo estemporanea per cose che non si riesce a comunicare in faccia ai veri destinatari del nostro messaggio, che magari incontriamo tutti i giorni nella vita reale.</p>

<li><a title="task timer" href="http://clockingit.com/">Clockingit</a> (tracks task duration, thanks <a title="Stefano" href="http://blog.quintarelli.it">Stefano</a>)</li>

<p>give an image to <a title="image search engine" href="http://www.tineye.com">TinEye</a> and the search engine tells you <strong>where </strong>that <strong>image </strong>(or a <strong>similar one</strong>) has been used on the web. The TinEye similar image is a <strong>reverse search engine for images</strong>, is pretty cool and fast is you need an image comparison search engine for your copyright needs and for the moment is free (lets you find unlimited similar images).</p>
<p>TinEys is the perfect image search engine to find image stealing. This website is also very good to find photoshopped versions of original photos, since it can compare even small parts of the original picture inside photo manipulated pics.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/tineye-working.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-498" title="tineye-working" src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/tineye-working-420x289.jpg" alt="image search engine screenshot working" width="420" height="289" /></a></p>
<p>The <a title="browser plugin" href="http://tineye.com/plugin">TinEye image search also features browser plugins</a> to skip the image upload step.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.tineye.com"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-496" title="tineye" src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/tineye.jpg" alt="image search engine logo" width="211" height="82" /></a></p>
<p>here you find the <a title="tineye duplicate image search" href="http://ideeinc.com/products/pixid/print-screencast">video to some features related to TinEye commercial use</a>. TinyEye has been tested by our staff with <strong>goatse images, and it works</strong>!</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Update</strong>: also google is developing a <a title="similar images" href="http://similar-images.googlelabs.com/">new similar image search on google labs</a>.</p></blockquote>

<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/greader.jpg" alt="google reader" width="249" height="250" /></h2>
<h3><a href="http://www.google.com/reader">RSS with Google reader</a></h3>
<p>staying informed with a lot of RSS is  important&#8230; and having great RSS sources is also very important, so every morning i browse the internet searching for something intersting.</p>
<h2>2 &#8211; Chat client</h2>
<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/pidgin.jpg" alt="pidgin" width="250" height="321" /></h2>
<h3><a href="http://www.pidgin.im">Pidgin and huge chat list</a></h3>
<p>with pidgin I keep together my Gmail, MSN, ICQ and AOL contacts (it have also other features but i do not use them)</p>
<h2>3 &#8211; Spam cleaner</h2>
<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/spamfighter.jpg" alt="spamfighter" width="249" height="250" /></h2>
<h3><a href="http://www.spamfighter.com/">Spam fighter plugin for outlook</a></h3>
<p>this little plugin saves a lot of time, it checks for the spam emails and puts them in the spam folder. it can be trained and customized (too bad it needs subscription)</p>
<h2>4 &#8211; Email marketing</h2>
<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/sendblaster.jpg" alt="email marketing software" width="250" height="221" /></h2>
<h3>SendBlaster <a title="email marketing software and bulk email software" href="http://www.sendblaster.com">email marketing program</a></h3>
<p>when I send my  news and offers I use this mass emailing software, comes in 2 versions: freeware and PRO.</p>
<h2>5  &#8211; Spam check</h2>
<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/mailingcheck.jpg" alt="email spam check" width="249" height="250" /></h2>
<h3><a href="http://www.mailingcheck.com">Mailing check email spam check</a></h3>
<p><strong>before</strong> sending a mass email I always check it with this free tool, so that it won&#8217;t be caught by mistake by my recipients&#8217; spam checkers. It gives a spam rate to my outbox folder, if they are too spammy the signal becomes RED and you have to correct something inside your email.</p>
<h2>6 &#8211; SEO CMS</h2>
<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/wordpress.jpg" alt="wp" width="249" height="250" /></h2>
<h3><a href="http://www.wordpress.org">Wordpress and ALL in one seo</a></h3>
<p>I write my websites using wordpress + All in one SEO pack, this gives to me great control on contents and also made new readers. Wordpress is indeed the best SEO content management system around.</p>
<h2>7 &#8211; Seo Copywriting</h2>
<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/seoquake.jpg" alt="seoquake" width="249" height="250" /></h2>
<h3><a href="http://www.seoquake.com/">SEO Quake</a></h3>
<p>When I have to optimize my articles for the search engines, I always check my <strong>words density </strong>with this free tool.</p>
<h2>8 &#8211; Daily rank check</h2>
<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/webmasters.jpg" alt="webmaster" width="249" height="250" /></h2>
<h3><a href="http://www.google.com/webmasters/">Google webmaster tools</a></h3>
<p>Once a day I check my ranks in the search engine with the google webmasters free tool, and i learn what is working in my website and what is not cool for my readers. It changes everyday so can be pretty though to follow at the beginning, but constant control over the website contents gives the best results.</p>
<h2>9 &#8211; New points of view</h2>
<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/new.jpg" alt="new" width="250" height="250" /></h2>
<h3>Read something new every day</h3>
<p>I buy books from amazon and always read something new (just a IRL clone of RSS reader anyway). When you get out from work, unplugging your mind from human beings constant contact can be very relaxing.</p>
<h2>10 &#8211; Social Share</h2>
<h2><img src="http://www.nerdgranny.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/socialnetworks.jpg" alt="social" width="249" height="250" /></h2>
<h3>Share thoughts and knowledge on social networks</h3>
<p>Staying in contact with new and old people is very important, and to achieve the contact we have something to share (like this page for example). I personally use:</p>
<ul>
<li> <a href="http://www.last.fm">last.fm</a> &#8211; music community</li>
<li><a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com">stumbleupon</a> &#8211; web discover community</li>
<li><a href="http://del.icio.us">del.icio.us</a> &#8211; bookmark community</li>
<li><a href="http://deviantart.com">deviantart</a> &#8211; artsy community</li>
<li><a href="http://facebook.com">facebook</a> &#8211; pure social</li>
<li><a href="http://linkedin.com">linkedIN</a> &#8211; job related</li>
</ul>
