New Gadgets for your Google Blogs

What are those things I keep seeing on blogs???

I have been having so much fun “digg” ing around the internet for all the new social networking sites and following them to great blogs! The FAVORITE thing of all is all the new gadgets I’ve been finding on other people’s blog sites. If you like any of the one’s I have on the right of my page, usually if you just click on them it will take you to their own “widget maker” page and you can get one for your blog too…

In your Blogspot Blog, just go to your dashboard, layout, page elements, Add a Gadget, you will usually need the Html/Java Script one.. click on that.. copy and paste whatever little script the Gadget maker gave you… save and wala (is that a word?) you have your new gadget… Preview to see where you want to put it and then “grab” the widget box and pull it into position. Save… there you have it.

I just found the twitter box this morning… it’s cute! And then separate from that the twitter updates, My DIGG… things I’ve found online that were interesting… not necessarily all business.. but interesting none the less. Sphinn it… a social website all about Social Networks and Web 2.0, and then of course the two coolest things were the “share this” and “add this” buttons so that you can save this blog or certain articles on any one of the many social networking sites out there…

There are a bunch of these sites.. I’ve listed some of the most popular below for you to check out….
Facebook

Delicious

Digg

Magnolia

MySpace

Newsvine

Reddit

Stumble Upon

My aol

Yahoo Bookmarks

Google Bookmarks

Yahoo My Web

Technorati

Twitter

Any RSS Feed

Furl

MSN Live

So THAT’s what all those cute little things I keep seeing on the net!

It really is fun getting on these sites and seeing if any of your long lost relatives are out there. I so far have found two of my college roommates that I’d lost touch with, so if for now other reason… that made it worth it.

Awesome Twitter Handbook for Free!

twitterbirdI haven’t even gotten to Twitter yet, but this link is just too good to miss! Twitter is a new application.. at least to me that involves Micro-blogging. Twitter defines itself  “Social networking and micro blogging service utilizing instant messaging, SMS or a web interface.” You can only use 140 characters per message that people who are subscribed to you can read on their cell phone text messaging service or on the web. Friends “follow” you and you can “follow” friends, the control is all up to you. Even Barack Obama is on twitter trying to keep the younger web 2.0 people informed and hyped up about voting for him… But enough of me trying to explain it.. Follow this link and download the free Twitter handbook here.

The way I am using this is to follow my “mentors” in the internet business. Take a look and see if it has an application for you.
