I'm starting to see "Dwigger" floating around in lots of places on the internet.
Congrats!
Anything that gets out there that fast has a really good chance of making it big.



Thanks it hit Mashable, and then the Digg front page - and we were completely swamped. It's calmed down a bit now.

Mashable discusses the video in detail:

You don't have to follow people who follow you. Also, you do have the ability to block people if you need to.

I suggest checking the Tweets people post to decide. Maybe they post worthwhile article or site links. Maybe they share funny/entertaining links. Perhaps they found a cool video that is Sift worthy. It depends on what interests you. Some Twits are just interesting to follow.

Some famous people post Tweets as well. And some websites have someone post official Tweets, i.e., Twitter (naturally), Pandora, Mashable, MyBlogLog, BlogCatalog. Who knows, maybe SiftBot will start Tweeting.

Links are converted automatically to "tiny URLs." The character limit is 140.

Should you become a Twittering Twit, here is my profile in case you feel compelled to follow me. Yes, there is Twitter lingo too . . .

Yay!

Mashable pointed out that Ricky Astley now has his own channel now because of the YouTube shenanigans on April Fool's Day. http://mashable.com/2008/04/02/rick-roll/

Interview with Rick Astley by the L.A. Times
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/webscout/2008/03/rick-astley-kin.html

Over Christmas I went on a massive Christopher Moore binge starting with Stupidest Angel. Comedic horror, am I'm not a horror fan at all. Lust Lizard, Fluke, You Suck, Dirty Job, Practical Demonkeeping, Coyote Blue..devoured em all. Couldn't get into Biff, though it may be his best work.

Just finished Positively Fifth Street - Middle-aged guy takes a writing assignment to cover the World Series of Poker. It's well written and weaves together poker action, a man's struggle to control his impulses, and a lurid ongoing murder trial. Even if you're not a poker buff this is a good read.

Goodreads.com looks like an interesting social site..I'll ask em about embed's to have reviews shareable / mashable. I created a VideoSift group there if anyone's interested.

There was an update on the Mashable "Deck the Trolls" competition:

Mashable is still soliciting Trolls for it's "Deck the Trolls Competition":

Mark "Rizzn" Hopkins wrote a follow up article to this one. It concerns Web 3.0 and Web 4.0. It appeared on Mashable last night.

I've started another thread to handle that discussion:
Blogging Is Dead; Long Live Blogging

Mashable posts daily a dizzying number of articles that chronicle the changes happening now on the Internet. It regularly provides lists of resource sites for different web activities.

This update was posted on Tuesday:
