Social networking 2.0, who will replace Facebook?



If anyone predicted that Facebook would one day rule the Internet, I will be reported to the dismissive attitude. Review the statements before them, they must have predicted Yahoo and Google have the same future. All predictions about the Internet, only one is always right: The waves pushed before.

Facebook giant will not be forever, it is only the pioneer of social networking. One day it will be the impact of the next generation of social networks, and then gradually decline and eventually die, just like on paper as the media industry is about to encounter.

David Fincher's The Social Network coined Facebook's business history, the plot full of tension, but it is why they can not get the Oscar for Best Picture? The reason is that it is irrelevant. Facebook does not represent social networks. Just like you'll never run into a bakery called the bakery, and will not drink coffee brand coffee refreshing. If you think that Facebook social network is your dream, it would be wrong. Crotch like a horse you think to be a joke T-Ford car is the same as short-sighted scrap pile.

The next generation of social networking look like? Want to answer this question, you need to analyze the shortcomings of existing social networks and the development bottleneck, and trying to creatively solve them. Standing on the shoulders of giants to see further.

Social network analysis, focusing on two elements: information pooling and dissemination of nodes. Information pool which means the user can access to information resources; means of information dissemination node to the recipient by the publisher of information between the communicator.

Facebook itself is a large information pool, but no one can access this great information on the full pool. This large information pool is full of the intersection of numerous small pools filled with information, communication nodes exist in the intersection of the complex into.

As a user, you can access to the information from your friends information about the composition of the small pool. But the fact is we are exposed to a wide variety of information, the publisher of the information is often strangers. This information comes from a large information pool of other small information pool. This is the role of communication nodes, a large information pool, it makes the whole flow of information together, to avoid islands of information.

This setup similar to real life, for you would not be in direct contact information, you can only come to understand through the information carrier. Traditional way to obtain such information, often only transmitted through a node, such as search engine or portal media. The Facebook allows you to get through the multi-level information dissemination node, so that the information you have access to exponential growth.

Facebook set up a simple and complex information flow system. This little information there is no separate pool, and no separate communication nodes, the disorder is full of information Facebook. This setup also Faceook brought fatal flaw: the flow of information interfere with each other, they can not be sorted and important information can not be rendered useless information often fill the entire space. Crowded space so that you often neglect the flow of time, endless (and your business) and new information that you can not stop reading. This is the Facebook social way.

Those who are tired of the bombing of the user information, for an easy way to use Facebook: games.39% of users on Facebook to play the social game , 15% of users to play games non-social class (nothing to do with your friends.) Disorderly conduct information allows users to no purpose, Facebook's newsfeed system trapped in a mist in which the user. The nature of social interaction, a necessary condition is to have interactive events allow people to whom the core of the discussion.

And chaotic information directly led to the lack of interaction between Facebook users, each user an average of 120 Facebook friends, but only 10 of which there is interaction between friends [1]. But it seems the interaction between users, Facebook does not let us become a better social life, or even only make it worse (yes, you take the time to participate in Party on Facebook a).

Twitter is not strictly a social network, its exact location is personalized media. Twitter partial solution to the problem of information pool, allowing users to take the initiative to master the information. Facebook to establish rules for small pool of information is your friends decision information, Twitter is the information to decide who you should follow. However, this method can not be completely copied into the social network.

Twitter also a lack of interaction between users of the problem, 32% of users do not follow anyone, 51% of users do not have any follower, What is more, 75% of the information is from 5% of the users (which is 5% of users personal representatives of the media). Perfect solution if the flow of information between users, interference and lack of interaction of these two issues, the next generation of social networking on the ready to come out.

As the representative of the Facebook social network based on acquaintance networks to build the whole person-centered social network, the core functions of information dissemination and sharing. Customer loyalty depends on the information provided in which the value of the information pool.

The next generation of social networks should look like?

First, it should not be based solely on the acquaintances network, users should develop social relationships through it, not just to build relationships online and then mapped to the next line. Its information pool should not be haphazard, and the organizational structure should exist in the pool of unrelated information between two independent, the information flow without interference. Information organization and really should not be done by the user to (such as Twitter, and Facebook Create a List function has not yet introduced the only concern the user to specify friends Newsfeed function), but should be completed by the system to eventually provide to the user is the result of organization.

It should also limit communication node, users need to get valuable information, but can not be allowed to drown in the trivial overseas adventures and living the message in the ocean. Most importantly, it allows users to interact effectively, and promote interaction between people is the highest social networking program.

Although Facebook has not yet left for the delay replacement, I still think that social networking will be the future leaders of the Internet, is difficult to have a service which will exceed it. The reason is simple, human desire to live, the first need is land, then the infrastructure. If this land is the Internet, it is a social networking infrastructure. People-oriented service will never be out of date.

1. Printing natively in Google Docs. It is more useful to download PDFs in Adobe Reader to print. You can print directly from Google Chrome.

Using Livescribe Connect with my Echo Smartpen

Last June, at the ISTE 2010 Conference I had the opportunity to meet with Jim Marggraff where he showed me what was in store for the Livescribe line of smartpens. Well today, Livescribe released Livescribe Connect which provides users with a host of new features and connectivity. One of the most exciting features from my perspective is being able to create an Adobe Acrobat Pencast PDF which is able to be played with the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. In fact today, I found out that the Acrobat Pencast PDF  works just fine with Adobe Acrobat Professional Version 9.4 which is on my Dell computer. In order to use the Livescroibe Connect features you will have to update the Livescribe Desktop software and your pen's firmware. The update went without a hitch and now the moment of truth was about to take place. I turned on my pen and did a short recording on a sticky note which I wanted to send to my Facebook page. After the recording was completed I used the convention of drawing a short line from left to right and back again and then was prompted to write the command- which I did by writing "Facebook" above the line. I was then prompted to select the page by tapping it and I finished the session by double tapping on the page. Now the LED screen on the pen prompted me to dock my pen which I did and within seconds my sticky note appeared in my Facebook page. Now anyone coming to my Facebook page can play and listen to the pencast right with the browser. Livescribe Desktop software supports a number of connectors which I'm sure you will find very handy. These include: Google Docs, Evernote, Email, Facebook, Mobile, Computer, and MyLivescribe. So if you have a Echo Smartpen then rush right over to the Livescribe website and update your software and pen so you too can take advantage of  Livescribe Connect- I'm sure you will enjoy the functionality just as much as I have!

Web designers will use the 11 SEO Tips

Current web design division is not only the look and style. They are also often responsible for the preparation of the main front-end code. In other words, SEO (search engine optimization) and a considerable portion of the responsibility falls on the shoulders of the designer. However a large number of web design division of familiarity in this area is still not enough to make them write a fully optimized for search engines page.
 
This paper aims to normal, and even some advanced web design skills to provide teachers to improve some important SEO tips.

1. Make the code more beautiful than the design
Structures when the front page, using a semantic code. Organizations with a descriptive label page structure can improve the readability of the contents of the search engine. This also makes the work more modified pages simple and clean.

2. Using keywords, but to grasp the sense of proportion
Keywords are words that describe the main content. Strategically placed keywords in the page is very important, for example, URL, title tag (title tag) and the rise of the major label (heading tag) in the. Frequently used keywords in the text is also very important, but not excessive, or your article may be punished because of keyword stuffing.

3. Avoid using Flash for navigation
No matter how gorgeous seductive effect of the drop-down list, do not use it. Search engines can not successfully read the contents of Flash files, so the Flash navigation bar links will not be tracked.

4. Use a different title of the page
Each page of your site should have a title attribute, and each page title should be different. If the title of each page are the same, the search engine will understand as each page of your site is the same theme.

5. Do not forget the pictures
Make good use of the image alt attributes, a reasonable description of it. No matter how intelligent search engine, they can not read pictures. This will let you ignore the loss of a large number of image search traffic.

6. Do not use the common links
Attaches great importance to the search engine links. So when linked to relevant content, use to describe the exact contents of the text. For example, when you visit to provide a link for more information on Photoshop, such as "For more information on Photoshop," the description, not just "more."

7. Avoid using pictures instead of text
As designers, we always want to work the more beautiful the better. So sometimes we will use a pretty picture ugly browser replace the title text. Please try to avoid doing so. As I said earlier, search engines can not understand the image content, but this should be the place where you write keywords.

8. Caution AJAX
Ajax effects to enhance the user experience is like, but do not overuse. Ajax-generated content can not be linked to. Principle is a good thumb: If you use Ajax to load a separate page may be to try not to use it.

9. Be included as soon as possible
Make Web pages indexed by search engines as soon as one of the ways is to try to get high popularity of the relevant niche sites within the chain. Submit it to Google is also an option, but it can sometimes take several days, then weeks of bad luck is also possible.

10. For the chain
The quantity and quality within the chain of the site's location in the search results have a great impact. Let everyone to link to your website is a good way to provide high quality and original content. Another approach is generous to other people's website links.

11. Adhere to the same URL
When you create a website, from the outset decided on whether to use "www". Once you made your decision would not have changed. Search engine will www.sitename.com and sitename.com repeated as two different sites, and search engines do not like to repeat the website.

SEO : the importance of the site map


There are many SEO tips and tricks to help in optimizing a website, but one whose importance is sometimes underestimated Sitemap. As the name implies, is only site map - that is, in a single page to display your site's structure, its parts, the links between them, etc. Site Map s easy to make your website and have a Web site update Your site is very good for your users and your search engine. Site map s is an important way of communication with your search engine. Although included in your robots.txt to tell search engines which parts of your site to exclude included in your Sitemap you tell your search engine you want them to go.

The importance of site map site map s is not a new thing. They have the best web design practice, SEO optimization but through your search engine site, and now they have become more important. However, it is necessary to make, if you are interested in site map, mainly SEM point of view, you can not go with the traditional sites only (though currently Yahoo and MSN remain the standard HTML format), for example, google site map s using a special (XML) format is different from the general HTMLSitemap to the user browsing.

One might ask why two site maps is necessary. The answer is obvious. One is the user, the other is for the spider (Googlebot will be present, but it is reasonable to expect, other search engines by adding the agreement included shortly.) Necessary in this relationship, there are two site maps is not considered duplicate soft paper. On the Webmaster Tools SEO search engine optimization, google it clear that use the site map will not lead to penalty for your site.

S use the site map has many advantages, not only easy and your search engine visibility is good. Sitemap provides the opportunity to inform immediately of any changes in search engine included on your site. Of course, you can not expect your search engine will immediately rush you to update your pages, but certainly the changes will be included faster than when you do not have a website.

In addition, when you have a website, and submit it to search your engine, you rely less on outside the chain, so that your search engine to your website. Web site can even help confusion within the chain. For example, if you accidentally break or a page within the chain, website optimization SEO search engine can not reach the other way (although there is no doubt, it is much better to resolve your error instead of relying on a site map.)

If your site is new, or if you have a lot of new (or recently updated pages), then use the site map can be crucial to success. Although you can still go without the site map, site map is likely to soon become the standard way s to submit your site to search engines. However, it is certain that, spider will continue to include Web pages and sites will not make the standard search procedures have been outdated, it is logical to say that the importance of the site will continue to increase.

Sitemap can also help categorize your site soft, but the search engine your website is by no means belongs to a class or category that match specific keywords just because you tell them to do.

Taking into account the site included the major search engines (especially google) is still in beta, may not have a huge advantage Sitemap advantages, but as soon as your search engine algorithms to improve their site included in search engine marketing , it is expected, the more and more and more sites will be incorporated into your website quickly through the map s.

Site map generation and submission

These steps need to perform in order to have a website for your website is very simple. First, you need to generate, and then you upload it to your site, and ultimately to inform you that google has.

Depending on your technical skills, there are two ways to download and install the generated sitemap s generate a site map or use the online web site generation tool. The first is more difficult, but you have more control over the output. You can also download google site map s generator.

The second way is to create website using online mapping tools, such tools on the network to many.

Xml version of the site maps and HTML version of Sitemap for the SEM, it is very necessary.

Influence of age on the SEO website

Whether the age of the site has a close relationship with the SEO?

The answer is "YES! And No!"

Ranking the age that there are some relations with the site, but it is important, in fact, may not necessarily. The older the site, in theory, SEO score is also relatively high. There are many network interpretation of these conditions:

1. Web site for registration under the age calculation of time?
2. Web site under age, to calculate the external links exist?
3. Web site online, according to age, to calculate the time?

Comments are also many websites which claim is correct, which statement is wrong. We should make a habit not to comment on some of the technique is right or wrong, but from a reasonable logic to determine if other, please let it be.

Let it because, there is no future without rules does not mean, now does not mean that the future can not be less than a judge. Making these judgments than on rules, development of the latest search technology than on the world's top search engine engineers are engineers, you are not with them than you?

Theory: the old ginger is hot

Logically, the longer survival of the site does indeed credibilty (trustworthiness) higher, like an elderly person to speak to speak more often than a guy credible, I think this is the basis of this theory.

Controversial basis for the influence of low natural

Spicy ginger is the old basis of the theory itself, you and I know there is considerable controversy worthy of a place, because:

1. To determine whether a person with the same trusted, age is not everything;
2.'s Own website is often important no matter how old, can be judged from the angle of the other of its importance;
3. Itself is boring, meaningless content sites, too, can survive for a long time.

From this points of light, we know the age to determine if a site, regardless of age, registered with the site to determine, or use the search records to calculate, have not become a decisive condition.

Since the conditions not be decisive, in fact, you and I know his importance is not high, if a waste of time playing the old URL idea, it is better to focus on other more useful aspects.
