oneConnect for iPhone

Originally uploaded by hey mr glen

Today, Yahoo have released a beta iPhone application called oneConnect. One of the cool features is Pulse, which shows you status updates from your friends on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Flickr. Very handy.

Yahoo! oneConnect™ for iPhone. A new way to stay in touch.

Update your Facebook, Twitter and IM status from one application

MoodBlast
MoodBlast is an excellent little app that allows you to update your status from one place. It currently supports the following services:

  • Skype
  • iChat
  • Adium
  • Twitter
  • Tumblr
  • Pownce
  • Jaiku
  • Facebook

Unfortunately, MoodBlast is Mac-only, but there is a web application called HelloTxt that looks like it will achieve the same thing.

Facebook, MySpace et al : Open up or die

Interesting article from The Economist on how social networks may be falling into the same trap that AOL and Compuserve have done in the past.

Two of the biggest online phenomena of the past couple of years—social networks such as Facebook, and virtual worlds such as Second Life—look an awful lot like AOL did in 1994. They are closed worlds based on proprietary standards. You cannot easily move information in and out of them: try shifting your Facebook profile to MySpace, or moving a piece of clothing or furniture from Second Life to Entropia Universe.

Ringside Networks are addressing this problem with the “first open source platform” for social networks, Ringside Social Application Server.
