A look back on 2008

2008 was a great year as far as I'm concerned..many things come to mind technology wise. The things that come to my mind immediately are the creation of my fave app Digsby, Monty Python got its own youtube channel, my twitter obsession began this year and the political filter and Mr. Tweet didn't help. Facebook changed a bit with Facebook im, a whole new layout all together, and the death of Scrablous. We learned that some will pay for anytype of app on an ipod with the I Am Rich incident. It was proven that the internet was not just for porn. Microsoft made droves of whineing geeks with the Jerry Seinfeld ads. One small thing I think deserves mention is Radars tricked by a muppet but thats just me. It was a great year for inovation as Leo Laporte started up Twit live and Twit Army. All and all a very interesting year and a year for change(and no that was not an Obama refrence). I can't wait to see what come up for everyone in the new year..if all this happened..just wait for the new one.

Mr. Tweet rocks!

It's time I plugged another site that i like Mr. Tweet is designed to show you who you should be following on twitter that you may not even know about. In my case I found the creators of one of my fave online comics "the joy of tech" and others in my list that I didn't even know were on Twitter. Just follow mrtweet on twitter and when your list it ready it will send it to you. Simple yet effective..I love it!
