The Social Networker

by Chris Miller at 12:04:26 PM on Tuesday, September 8th, 2009



A walkthrough screencast of the new social friend aggregator client Orsiso that runs on Adobe Air.  It was a quick download and easy to configure, although there are a lot of options.

They will need to add plenty of more social networks to make this a real draw into becoming a client for the masses.  It seems they are in direct competition with Digsby and other client aggregators, yet they are providing much more function.  I am trying to see the revenue model and I would imagine an ad based client will come for free, or with limited function.  The upgrade would offer more and no ads.  The question will be if it is worth it.

 It currently supports such sites as Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, Bebo and more with all of the major chat clients.

Corvida and I become official Plurkers by joining and analyzing the new hot site Plurk.  We had a special guest with Wayne Sutton dropping in (he is of course on Plurk and Twitter but has far too many followers we think).


Some announcements were made:

  • the new Twitter hot site EverythingTwitter got released
  • there is a site Plurkable for anything Plurk related

Conference/Article Materials

My Files

Yes this is a blatant theft of the outline that Jess uses on her page, but I asked permission. Why?? Because I am a hardcore admin and can make ugly tables to make you developers frustrated, but this was too nice to pass up.

  • Verizon and they always seem to know how to find me, damn cell

Animals:

One dog, a Pug. He has been on this world before and seems to understand slippers and a fine cigar. Mind you that is him in the chair and not me.

Let us now also add a deranged cat that is in the process of being toilet trained. Update: Toilet traning was very very close.

Music:

Non-stop. At my desk, in my car, walking to work and back to my car downtown. In the house there is a crazy zoned set-up for you home automation geeks.

I am a self-proclaimed MP3 fiend, to which I have tried rehab 4 billion times to no avail. Next is the MP3 hard-drive for the car that I found. Now what kind of music you ask? I will never tell.

Spells:

Hershey’s Stomach of Holding: Jess and I are fighting over who eats more chocolate. TWDUFF can help me out and vouch for me.

Character Bio:

This will take far more time than I have today. I will start with I was born and still live in St. Louis, MO. Even though for a couple years I was never, ever here and always on the road, this is smack in the middle of the US. Everything is just a few hour flight. That part is nice. No beach/ocean/coast isn't the best. But with the travel I make up for it.

Don't Panic

Looking to find me in person? Here is where I will be.
