On 02/09/2010, In twitter apps, By Brian

Twitter is one of the most prominent social networking sites and continues to be widely used by bloggers, business owners, celebrities, techies, social networkers and just about anyone who has an internet connection and an excuse to use it these days. While so many have Twitter accounts, few know how effective their Twitter activity is.

My focus today is on providing you three excellent tools that will show you how often you’re tweeting, who you retweet the most, your twitter rank and score and ways you can improve your Twitter experience.

TweetStats – Twitter analytics is a tool to graph your Twitter stats. The different graphs consist of your Tweet Timeline, average tweets per day, replies, who you retweeted and much more information and statistics. Below you’ll find my @EazyCheezy TweetStats.

Twitter Grader – Twitter Grader is a very interesting tool. It calculates your rank, number of followers and individuals you are following and updates. You get a Grade out of 100. My Grade for @EazyCheezy is 97.4, not bad. :) You’ll also be able to see your tagcloud and garph your trends.

Twitalyzer 2.0 – Twitalyzer is great for businesses and users who are looking to improve their Twitter use. It’s also the closest Twitter tool I’ve found to Google Analytics. From your dashboard, you can get detailed information such as number of clicks for links you Tweet, context, goals, detailed recommendations, referrers and much more. From the main page, you can see scores in areas such as engagement, influence, generosity, clout, retweeted, referenced and many more categories.

The 5 Hottest Firefox Add-ons – Stylish, FlashGot, FastestFox and More

On 01/17/2010, In firefox add-ons, By Brian

To me, there’s no better browser on the planet than Firefox. Firefox gives me everything I need and lets me fully customize my browser, thanks to the countless amazing Add-ons and themes. Today, I wanted to highlight the 5 overall most shared Firefox Add-ons within the last 7 days. If you’re a Firefox user and want to checkout which Add-ons are the hottest, look no further. Enjoy!

5. Stylish lets you customize websites you view. It allows you to remove unnecessary content, modify the colors or accomplish a complete redesign of the site. You’ll be able to add, delete, enable, disable and organize your user styles without any coding.

4. FlashGot is a neat little add-on that gives you the ability to download one link, selected links or all links on a page together quickly with one click. The FlashGot Media command gets video and audio clips while they’re playing.

I’ve used all these Add-ons, with the exception of Facebook Dislike Button. I just personally don’t have interest in it. All the other Add-ons are pretty useful and well done. I can’t wait to have some fun with Stylish. What’s your favorite Firefox Add-ons?

ESPN.com 1998 to 2000 – Fun With the Wayback Machine

On 01/15/2010, In sports, By Brian

As you’ve probably seen in the past, I occasionally enjoy playing around with the Internet Archive to compare sites of today with their previous designs of the past. Today, I decided to do a quick comparison of ESPN from 1998 to 2000. I was going to take it all the way til today, but due to the size of the pics, I’ll instead expand this post into a few extras to showcase the significant design changes. In preparing this post, one of the most intriguing aspects was reading some of the old stories. Relax, take off your shoes and take a look at ESPN.com from 1998 to 2000.

December 3rd, 1998

As I examine the page above, a few things stick out. First of all, what’s this infoseek search stuff? It’s obviously terribly ugly as many webpages were in 1998. John Elway is getting ready to retire, somebody gave up a 6th round pick for Rodney Peete, ESPN can’t spell the Patriots very well and our favorite bad owner Daniel Snyder is about to empty his wallet, $800 Million worth, for the train-wreck that is the Redskins.

October 13th, 1999

Still ugly, but not as ugly. The stories are interesting with the Rams at top of the power rankings. I forgot they were good once upon a time.  Other tidbits include the evil Eagle fans cheering after Michael Irvin’s neck injury, the Vikes in last place, while Cade McNown and Erik Kramer are getting ready to start NFL games. As a Bears fan, I’ll leave the Cade McNown draft blunder alone.

October 19th, 2000

Still ugly, but we’re starting to see a little bit better design. Of the NFL rushing leaders above, guess who is the only one left that’s still playing? Good old Kurt Warner, back in his magical years with the Rams. Looks like the Rams were still a powerhouse. The Top 5 of the Power Rankings feature the Rams, Raiders and Dolphins. And look at that, Ryan Leaf surprises his coach. Yep, that was your number 2 overall pick back in the day.

I hope you enjoyed. Usually when I start playing with the Wayback Machine, it turns into a post. If anyone is interested, I can continue this. Let me know what you think.
