Gone are the simple days of running a small business; gone is the time when a disgruntled customer's voice had a lifespan of a few days. We live in the future now, where reviews live forever....
... OwnerListens, a startup that spun out of a hummus shop in Palo Alto, is trying to give customers a more direct alternative to Yelp — and they’ve just raised over a million bucks to do it. Through OwnerListens, customers can send messages directly and anonymously to a business owner, who can then respond immediately via SMS. Feedback doesn’t have to be negative, of course — it can be positive, or even just a suggestion.
The logic behind OwnerListens is pretty straight-forward: if you give customers a direct, pain-free line to the owner, they’ll (hopefully) try to get things fixed instead of storming straight to Yelp to punch out a 200-word tirade. And because it’s anonymous and private, customers will — at least theoretically — be honest and upfront....

With Google pulling the plug on popular apps like Google Reader and Google Alerts, Jim Berkowitz takes an objective look at several alternative applications that can help with your content curation....
When Google announced that they were discontinuing Google Reader and made Google Alerts disappear I was perturbed to say the least. My initial knee-jerk reaction was to try to find a set of tools that were as similar to the ones I was using as possible. It wasn’t really all that hard. With a little research I was able to come up with Talkwalker Alerts as an alternative to Google Alerts and Feedly as my Google Reader replacement.
I was a happy camper and back in my comfort zone. But, you know what? When it comes to digital marketing best practices and the technologies to support them, a comfort zone is not always the best place to be. You miss a lot, you fall behind, you slowly lose your edge. Don’t get me wrong… I still love the value I get from finding new great content sources with “alerts” and then using RSS Feeds to deliver all the new content from my favorite sources to one easy to use platform....

With Google ringing the death knell for its RSS Reader application, the July 1 curtain call has kicked a number of companies into action as they vie for the market left by Google Reader’s closure. Digg has already thrown its hat into the ring, as it plans to build an RSS app with the best of Google Reader’s features. And Feedly is benefiting too. Earlier this week, another RSS service opened in public beta called Ping.it, offering an interesting feature called ‘Probes’ which lets users create very specific feeds based on keywords and popularity. Ping.it and probes Ping.it launched initially in private beta back in December, before Google revealed it was pulling the plug on Reader. At its most basic level, Ping.it is an RSS reader. But it’s the new Probes feature that’s particularly interesting. For example, if you only want to receive feeds on “YouTube videos on Reddit with more than 1,000 Likes”, you can create a Probe that taps both YouTube and Reddit to present this information directly in your feed. Without creating a Ping.it account, all you can really do is subscribe to probes created by other users....
