NextBestAction - Twitter-Clone Launches its Microbloggin Platform

NextBestAction.com, what seems like an evil entrepreneural brother of Twitter, launches its microbloggin platform. From what I can tell, the startup lacks a lot of visual graphics. But perhaps that could be their selling point, just like Craigslist looked horrible. (and still looks horrible!)

While to the untrained eye, it looks like a mess of dialogue and conversation bits– sort of like a nerdy im conversation with lots of links and nonsense. However, it’s more than meets the eye. NextBestAction uses the concept of microblogging and the Twitter phenomenon with the purpose of better business. It’s Twitter for the entrepreneurial spirit. If you want business or management advice, or if you want some good old fashioned philosophy, NextBestAction’s a good place to go. So far, it’s very beta and doesn’t look like much, but it’s a interesting use of the platform.

PikiWiki Launches Application for Facebook Users!

PikiWiki Launches Facebook Application!

It seems like Web 3.0 is nearing and you see Wikis popping up everywhere.  These days, most wikis don’t require and wiki markup language.  (That’s the whole process of moving to Web 3.0.  Sometimes, you can’t even tell it’s a wiki.)

PikiPages, is an evil-brother of PikiWiki, a wiki site that let’s you create wiki pages with sounds, pictures, and video on your Facebook.  (Pretty neat I’d say, they are on the verge of Web 3.0 here)

I am not an avid (ab)user of Facebook anymore but these guys have their wikis straight.

Go check out PikiPages on Facebook and found out what you can do.  I think this is one Facebook app I might actually log in and check out.  (and probably has a good chance of going viral…)

The PikiPages editor is relatively simple to operate. It’s not the most aesthetically pleasing device in the Facebook application marketplace, but it’s no eyesore, either. And more importantly, it gets the job done. As long as the job is a fairly elementary one. No finagling with CSS here from what we can gather. Just options to add backgrounds, change layouts, add text, designs, various embeds, photos from your Facebook archive (or uploaded from your PC), audio and video recordings. Is that enough to get by? Only the individual user can decide that, of course, but for most people interested enough to find a place for the application in their personal library of choice services, what’s included may generally be what’s needed.
