Best FB App!

     

by Jonathan Liu

The best Facebook app is finally working properly again!

How is this different from the free version?

     

by NickNolty345

I have the free version of this app by the same company, does the exact same thing, so why are they charging for this one?

When I bought this, I expected it to be better than the free version with some additional features with bugs fixed, but alas, its the exact same thing….please give me my money back…..

Works great again, FINALLY!

The latest update fixed the previous one that killed the app. Thank goodness because I really don’t like the other Facebook apps for the iPad. This one is by far the best now that it works again.

FlickStackr brings AirPlay to Flickr videos

Posted on by David Chartier, Macworld.com

Now that iOS 4.3 is making its way to iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch users, app updates that take advantage of its new features are rolling in. FlickStackr, a feature-packed, universal iOS client for Yahoo’s massive photo sharing site, is now leveraging Apple’s latest mobile OS.

The unassuming FlickStackr 1.7.2 update has gained one major new feature: AirPlay support for Flickr videos. You should now be able to browse Flickr and send any videos you find to a second-generation Apple TV () for playing on a larger screen. This new version also adds international support for French and Simplified Chinese, as well as support for the iPad 2’s cameras.

These new perks are in addition to FlickStackr’s already long feature list, which includes the ability to upload media with EXIF and GPS data intact, support for multiple Flickr accounts, background uploading, batch metadata editing, full-screen photo browsing, offline photo browsing, and adding photos to groups.

FlickStackr 1.7.2 is available now in the App Store for $2, though you can try out a free version called FlickStackr Explore that is limited to just browsing Flickr. You’ll need iOS 3.1.3 or later to run it, but iOS 4.3 is required for AirPlay streaming.

Top 7 Ways to Save Time on Twitter

This post originally appeared on the American Express OPEN Forum, where Mashable regularly contributes articles about leveraging social media and technology in small business.

While many small businesses have started using Twitter in their marketing, finding the time to do it right can be a struggle. According to recent research by R2integrated, the number-one barrier to entry into social media for businesses is lack of time and resources.

Here are seven Twitter tricks from the pros that allow you to spend less time on the mechanics and more time engaging.

1. Follow Other People’s Lists

Using Twitter lists is a great way to keep up with what’s happening in your industry and connect with relevant people in an efficient way. And because chances are someone in your industry already went to the trouble of developing a great list of people to follow, there’s no need to recreate the wheel.

You can use a site like Listorious to search for other people’s lists by topic. For example, a boutique clothing merchant could use Listorious to search “fashion” to find lists of fashionable tweeters. Once you’ve identified a comprehensive list, follow the list and also set up a column or running search in your social media tool dedicated to that list’s feed so you don’t miss any tweets. When you find yourself with a few minutes to spare, go back and follow the top people from the list so you can start to build direct connections.

2. Cut Clutter With Microlists

When you’re following more than a few hundred people, your main Twitter feed starts to become more like noise than a conversation, and you’re likely to miss what key influencers are tweeting about… especially if you only have time to check in once or twice a day.

A great way to cut through the clutter is to create your own microlists of key people to follow. For example, I have a list of media, analysts and influencers who are important to my clients running in the center column of my social media dashboard so I can easily stay on top of what they’re tweeting. You can go back through your existing followees and put them into lists, and as you follow new people, simply put them into lists as appropriate. Follow these lists in separate columns to facilitate quick scanning. I’d recommend keeping these lists to no more than 50 people to keep the stream manageable.

3. Automate Routine Processes

While Twitter is a great way to make direct and authentic connections with your customers, there are still many activities that can be automated. For example, some tools, such as SocialOomph, let you send an automated direct message thanking new followers. Ping.fm lets you update your status on Twitter, as well as Facebook, LinkedIn and dozens of other sites, all at the same time from one place.

Another way to fit tweeting into your schedule is to develop tweets in bulk and schedule them to go out later. Many tools are now available that offer this functionality, such as Hootsuite, Tweetdeck and Twaitter. Because most people only check Twitter off and on throughout the day, you can schedule the same or similar tweets to go out over the course of a few days without most people seeing the same thing twice.

4. Follow Keywords and Hashtags

Here’s another time-saving tip: follow keywords and hashtags to easily find relevant content to share. For example, activist blogger @unsuckdcmetro follows the hashtag #wmata (Washington Metro Area Transit Authority) to track real-time tweets about the DC Metro. This allows him to uncover breaking news for his blog and to keep up a steady flow of tweets for his readers without having to spend time searching for content.

I recommend setting up a running search or column in your social media tool on particular terms and hashtags so you can quickly scan for interesting content to retweet and for people to engage with. Some tools will also let you set up alerts to monitor particular keywords and will even periodically e-mail you a digest of the tweets that contain those keywords.

5. Mine Existing Content

If you’ve got a company blog, you’ve likely got a ton of great content that’s only been tweeted out once with a simple headline. Social media consultant David Spark recommends going back through your blog and pulling out good quotes as tweets with a link back to the article, and then scheduling all those tweets over time. You can do the same thing with your news and customer case studies as well. And while you’re at it, why not assign this project to a sharp team member who’s eager to participate in the company’s social media and marketing efforts? You’ll have one less task on your plate.

6. Share Responsibility

Ad hoc projects aren’t the only jobs you can offload. If your business has more than just a few employees, chances are there are several trustworthy people who could actually be tweeting on behalf of the company. Simply come up with a few simple ground rules for tweeting, review the protocol with your team and let them have a go. Supervise the tweets for a week or two to make sure they’re on the right track.

Citrix Online’s @GoToMeeting is a great example of how to do this right. It has multiple people tweeting and includes their initials with each tweet. The Twitter page also features the names and photos of these tweeters. This approach not only distributes responsibility and makes the Twitter conversation more lively, but also gives the company a more human face and personality.

7. Plan Less, Experiment More

Don’t spend ages planning — just start trying new things. Spark suggests that instead of having a one-hour meeting to plan your social media strategy, cancel the meeting and require team members to spend that hour writing a blog post. And instead of having another meeting, spend the next free hour reading the other blog posts, leaving comments and promoting it to your social networks.

SmartNotes adds iPad support, note syncing

Posted on by Danny Gallagher, Macworld.com

Note-sharing technology sure has come a long way from when my buddies and I used to pass notes behind the teacher’s back. The newest version of Left Coast Logic’s SmartNotes adds the ability to sync notes between devices, as well as iPad support, and more.

With version 2.0 of the note organization and to-do app, users can sync all of their notes data—including voice and photo attachments—with the new Left Coast Cloud server. They can also enter a security code to protect their data and they’ll be able to take advantage of a new landscape view for easier scrolling on both the iPad and the iPhone.

The new version also comes with an organizational interface that allows users to group notes and integrate information from address book contacts and Google Maps, as well as new personalized features including font styles, background images, and product skins.

SmartNotes 2.0 is available on the App Store for $10. It works with any device running iOS 3.1.3 or later.

Honestly, let’s just skip past the small talk — we’re ordering a bunch of these ASAP. AppleCores are available in a variety of sizes and colors, and it looks like an ingenious way to organize your cords and cables, especially those Apple white headphones and chargers. They range in price from $2-$5, practically a steal, no?

Flexible future: Forget the iPhone, here’s the smartphone made out of ‘paper’ that will shape with your pocket

By Daily Mail Reporter

Last updated at 10:10 AM on 6th May 2011

• The PaperPhone’s flexible display makes it more portable that any current mobile computer

In an industry where unbreakable and smaller are best, the world’s first interactive paper computer looks set to dominate for years to come.

The PaperPhone has a flexible electronic display that is set to herald a new generation of computers.

Extremely lightweight and made out of a thin-film, the prototype device can do everything a smartphone currently does.

Prototype: The PaperPhone has a flexible electronic display, is extremely lightweight, made out of a thin-film, and can do everything a smartphone currently does

It can store books, play music, send text messages – and, of course, make phone calls.

Most impressively, the PaperPhone uses no power when nobody is interacting with it.

Inventor Roel Vertegaal, the director of Queen’s University Human Media Lab in Kingston, Ontario, said: ‘This is the future. Everything is going to look and feel like this within five years.

‘This computer looks, feels and operates like a small sheet of interactive paper, meaning that when users are reading they don’t feel like they are holding a sheet of glass or metal.

‘You interact with it by bending it into a cell phone, flipping the corner to turn pages, or writing on it with a pen.’

Arm-band: The device uses no power when nobody is interacting with it

Its display consists of a 9.5cm diagonal, thin-film flexible E Ink display.

The flexible form of the display makes it much more portable that any current mobile computer – it will shape with your pocket.

Being able to store and interact with documents on larger versions of these light, flexible computers means offices will no longer require paper or printers.

‘The paperless office is here,’ said Dr Vertegaal. ‘Everything can be stored digitally and you can place these computers on top of each other just like a stack of paper, or throw them around the desk.’

Dr Vertegaal will officially unveil his paper computer on Tuesday at the Association of Computing Machinery’s Computer Human Interaction 2011 conference in Vancouver.
