It’s just that Google wants to be online marketing. Everywhere, and to everyone, including Facebook- and Twitter-using brand marketers (and let’s not forget that Google has a testy relationship with Twitter, as well, due to mutual disagreements over social search and who’s indexing whom). If this is the case, we’d expect to see a comprehensive ad management platform for the entire web emerging from the bowels of Google within the next six to 12 months. For now, Wildfire will continue to operate as-is, a standalone social marketing shop. Via The New Company

Hey, really interesting post!
I agree with you that Business Intelligence (BI) is a set of tools and techniques that process raw data into meaningful information and useful statistics that are used in business analysis, which can help in achieving beneficial results. Here I need to mention a very useful BI tool that helped me a lot in successfully visualizing my data. Tableau is a very well-known BI tool that creates visualization for data and enables users to communicate with the data to make effective decisions. Have a look at http://www.actiknow.com/tableau-consulting/ to get knowledge about this tool.

Robin Good: Paper.li one of the early players in the news aggregation, discovery and auto-curation space has been significantly improving its service which now offers also a $9/month Pro version.
Paper.li allows you to set a number of search queries on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, YouTube and to import specific RSS feeds to "aggregate" the most relevant on a certain topic or theme.
You as a curator can "preview" your yet-to-be-published news magazine and can manually pick and decide which "stories" to publish and which ones to drop by simply hovering your mouse on anyone of them.
"Editions" can be auto-scheduled and Paper.li can automatically announce on Twitter and via email to your subscribers when a new one is out.
PRO users get to have the last word before any edition gets published, by way of a "preview before promotion" feature that lets you control when notifications go out and gives you time to make changes, can add promotional banners, standard ads or other marketing materials in a set of predefined hot spots on their news page, and can "brand" their magazine with their own banner, background image and personalized colors.

Thanks for the review Robin and the clear explanation of what users can do. Much appreciated.

Microsoft a révélé mardi la nouvelle version d’Hotmail, son service gratuit de messagerie électronique. Pour son renouveau, Hotmail est rebaptisé Outlook. Outlook conserve les fonctionnalités classiques d’un webmail : envoyer des mails et y répondre, les transférer, les classer et appliquer des filtres, notamment pour contrer le spam.
Robin Good: Zeen, the new app from the original founder of YouTube is finally coming, and it has opened its doors to private beta users.
While I am waiting to get in and start testing it myself, I share with you the official launch news as picked up by Giuseppe Mauriello from TheNextWeb review:
"YouTube founders launched a teaser for a new project called Zeen. It’s similarly based around the idea of content curation, but whereas Delicious is about tags and bookmarks, Zeen is a more developed version of the ‘social newspaper’ services like Paper.li.
After connecting your Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts, you get the option to create your first magazine, choosing from a number of template styles and color schemes.
You then dive into creating the magazine, without quite so much guidance about what you’re doing or why. Tools along the top of the magazine allow you to add content from the likes of Google searches, YouTube content, Instagram photos, Twitter, RSS feeds (you have to enter the feed URL) – or content you’ve clipped from around the Web using a blookmarklet.
Once you’ve added as much content as you like, one piece of content per page, you can publish your magazine to share with others..."

Mike, you are very welcome.
By the way, if I may ask, which is the original scoop that you are referring to with your thanks?

Robin, good question, as your original scoop has been reScooped several times in this thread. I was thanking RPattinson-Daily for reScooping my reScoop, and so on, down to your original scoop. So thanks for this scoop, and for all the great scooping you do!

Shona Whyte: The free subtitling platform for video has added a new feature for users: ”We want video with the transcription! We want it to highlight the currently spoken line! We want it to seek when I click on a line in the transcription!”
So now you can make your own transcriptions of videos, embed both in your webpage for users to watch and read interactively (like TED talks).
The dotSUB site was already very useful for language teachers and learners: the transcription tool is easy to learn, and anyone can save and share transcriptions, making it possible to translate the same clip into different languages. Teachers can find resources, or subtitle their own choices in the original language or in translation to help listening comprehension, and learners can make their own subtitles for close listening and/or translation practice.

If people are given the right tools and the right environment, will they spontaneously collaborate and share knowledge? Why do some people find it difficult to share and collaborate? Would incentives and rewards make a difference?
Collaboration in the workplace is now high on the priority list of many organisations seeking to leverage social technologies to free-up knowledge and provide opportunities for co-creation, co-production and innovation.
Gust MEES: I was one of the TOP10 Knol authors (Google Knol discontinued its service as on May 1, 2012) and I was involved in a lot of collaborative articles with multicultural authors and it was a very positive experience... I hope one day having the same opportunity back again on WordPress now...

If you want to understand digital fluency, consider what it takes to be fluent in a language. So what's the difference between digital literacy and digital fluency? According to Briggs and Makice, literacy means you know what tools to use and how to use them, while fluency means you also know when and why to use them. Via Alastair Creelman
