Sad on one hand since Posterous was a user friendly tool to use.

Moving toward Twitter with Mobile makes logical sense, Twitter has developed into a great platform for business and is mobile ready.

Thanks for the heads up on this move Michael, so long as pricing is right people will make use of a platform. Both LinkedIn and Facebook are extremely popular with many changes in the pipeline going toward mobile, we live in interesting times.

Tested seems to work OK. Facebook now asking for cloud servers to be used with apps and lead you straight onto Heroku. Did anyone sign up using that route? Seems FB requirements are becoming excessive, possible swing across to Google+. Is this going to be added?

Hello Pine, How is PE? Have you signed up for your Google + yet, it is amazing to see how quickly this is growing.

I agree Lesley, Google is great but by the time you have logged in checked the few things you really need to do you tend to move on. I can see the value however if you log in, and stay in each day as you work to keep up with what might be happening, but that too is a distraction from actual work. Most sites you have a tool bar somewhere to keep you up to date so why not Google.

Wow Jay, I really do not envy you, now you have to start from scratch to find an easy effective way to work online in e-commerce. Here in South Africa we had no PayPal available for quite sometime and it really does create problems, since most online guests are familiar with PayPal and happy to use their facility. Sorry to hear that they have dished you out this nonsense.

Hi JD,

This is a very interesting piece of information, I realized from the outset of going online, living in South Africa the possibility existed of streamlined news appearing. But not quite to this degree!

Newspapers and TV news as we know it, all have "Gate Keepers", unless the journalist is totally independent of an established company.

So yes the internet does reflect a more realistic approach to democracy, knowing what is actually happening.

Instead of "personalizing" , the big players should be watching out for the scallywags feeding mis-information.

Gate Keepers are required, taking into consideration culture and creed but not demographics, Global will become Local once again.

Hi Simon,

Thanks for your comment, going local is the way to go and using Facebook which is the most popular at the moment, you can achieve the local feel by naming your page Bristol XYZ.

Currently on Facebook you can find Jo Barnes (originally UK now living in Australia) who steps you through the whole process. Here is her link to her page in facebook to get a feel of what she offers, !/freefanpaget... - it is insightful and directs you on how to start up a page for business, after you have registered a personal page, but don't worry she takes you through everything. When you are all set up and ready to go, facebook offers very localized advertising (needless to say you can also link a Twitter account through to read on your fb account).

If you are on Firefox grab the add on tool Yoono for your side bar, you can have this streaming whilst you work and answer questions, or put feed back in comments passed in Twitter, Facebook, You Tube, LinkedIn etc. all in one place.

LinkedIn is exceptionally good for business building contacts, just adhere to their rules then look for business' in Bristol, type in and search for local and then send out invitations to become friends. When you sign up fill in as much detail about yourself as possible. This may feel a bit slower than the abovementioned, but really stands you in good stead working into the future.
