What are MashUps?

Too bad Common Craft has not made a MashUp video yet so I needed to check You Tube and found this video.

Social networking @ Common Craft

Social networking video explains the idea behind the networking services, e.g. LinkedIn, Facebook or Twitter.

LinkedIn for Dummies

When I create a training material I often call it "... for dummmies" and people find it funny (since they don't actually want to be called as dummies). "For Dummies" is however a synonym for basics, i.e. no background knowledge is required to understand the presentation. Now I found LinkedIn for Dummies video that tells you everything you need to know about the service :).

Web 2.0 ... The Machine is Us/ing Us

I noticed I haven't shown one of my favorite videos here yet, so here we go:

Second Life introduction

I found this video through this blog.
.

I visited Second Life for the first time last week and it was kind of fascinating. Need to go there again sometimes.

Web2.0 @ IBM

See the video and read more from Elsua.net.

Twitter's new competitor: Flutter

I wonder if this video was posted 1st of April?

AdSense -easy money?

I just need to try this - can I make easy money with AdSense. Here are instructions how you add it to your blog. For my Finnish readers I recommend Mikko's Rahasta blog, he tells there e.g. useful stuff about AdSense. Check also AdSense policies in English or in Finnish

People normally hate ads but since they should be optimized for my blog you might see some links that are really interesting. If e.g. ten of you click an ad, they will pay me something like a buck. Yey - I'll be rich ;). Or maybe not but at least there's no harm done if I try out.

The problem with money making is that the regular readers won't come to my page, they follow the feeds with a feed reader. I noticed that you can add ads to feeds too, here are the instructions for that.
