10 Top Social News Sites Ranked by Design
November
An article originally posted on emitgraphics.com
“Digg, Reddit, Mixx, Slashdot, and so on. They are all great social news and media websites, but how do they rank in terms of how easy they are on the eyes? Here I will rank all the top social news and media websites based solely on their layout.”
Read the full article at emitgraphics.com
In my opinion…
The amount of social websites is increasing rapidly and the concurrency is hard on the internet between all those websites which are providing almost the same services. That is why they need to distinguish themselves from the others.
There are several ways to get out of the mass and try to be “the chosen one” for the final user. A very important aspect, even if it could seem insignificant to some developers, is the design and the layout of their application. Indeed, the first thing the final user see is the look and feel of the website, and for this reason they will stay or they will leave.
This article is just discussing about that point and is trying to compare some famous social news websites on the level of their look and design. It’s interesting to see how a final user is considering the sites he visited and to understand why he made that ranking.
A good design is indeed one of the major factors in user-adoption, besides usability and the functionalities offered, which are all determining the ‘lifetime’ of these social tools.

140 characters to knowledge share
September
An article originally posted on Library Clips
“I feel that people will indeed post to a micro-blog as the content is the length of an SMS, ie. a max of 140 characters. This is not hard at all, and the format encourages a type of informalness. Another low barrier is posting via email or some sort of app that’s real easy to get to and post, perhaps via the browser or a desktop widget. Actually micro-blog posting via IM feels right, it feels more casual and something people may be inclined to do, unlike a blog they are not fearing that lot’s of people will see their published post, in fact micro-blog streams fall off the radar quite quickly.
This is not a mirror replacement for typical blog content, using micro-blogs we also tend to share stuff we wouldn’t blog, more akin to IM…so this makes blogs and micro-blogs (or presence networks) very complementary.”

In my opinion…
If you are wondering whether microblogging can be a useful tool inside your company and can complement existing blog/wiki platforms, read through this post as it gives concrete examples of messages/conversations which can be captured and further fill in communication gaps between employees.

Chrome Not Ready For Enterprise
September
An article originally posted on www.readwriteweb.com
“We’ve covered the launch of Google’s new browser Chrome extensively this week. But as we near the end of the week, one of the questions yet to be answered is how Chrome will fare in the enterprise. As we all know Google is making a strong push into the enterprise with Google Apps, which received a further boost this week with the launch of Google Video for Business.
However, there is a lot of work needed to get Chrome ready for the office. Already our readers have noticed compatibility and usability issues that will hamper enterprise adoption.”
Read the full article at www.readwriteweb.com
In my opinion…
In this article, the author evaluates the readiness of Google Chrome for use in a corporate environment. All in all, it seems to mostly come down to the lack of ActiveX support in Google’s latest browser.
Personally I think that the lack of ActiveX support is a “good” thing. It is not Google Chrome that needs to change, it is the applications using ActiveX.
With Google Chrome, the user base of Internet Explorer will most likely continue to decline, hopefully forcing vendors to finally evolve and use standard technology, making the web a better place both for users and web app developpers.
