Social Networking

Smurf You! launches to brighten up the week.

Update: I let my domain expire. It was a fun expieriment, but time for more important things.

Been a long couple weeks for me and several others as we are dealing with some malicious site activity at work. However, Smurf You! is now live and I am very happy with the results.

Smurf You! is a micro blogging application that allows you to post your status to Twitter through SMS and all kinds of cool gadgets, some still in development. Using the open source micro-blogging service, SatusNet, and a javascript written by Adrian Speyer, you can send status updates to your friends and family and translate those into smurf-talk using the translate function.

Just having a bit of fun with it, but eventually I can step through my experience using statusnet and implementing it in a blog series to come.

Enjoy. Now smurf off!

Google Wave Is Coming

If you are looking for the new wave of social networking, watch this video from Google I/O 2009 conference. It shows a sneak peak at the new innovative communication tool. It will be open source and from the looks it can open up a huge role of possibilities. Very cool stuff.
