Are you Socially Bookmarked?

I do not know if you belong to the era of those Internet geeks who used to religiously socially bookmark without really knowing the difference in bookmarking a website or / and a blog. There were Digg, Technorati, Reddit and many more such similar sites where you would actually deposit a link and a non-descript narration about what your website / blog did.

Technorati - I remember having dealt with my fellow American colleague and she would insist me to explain what the F@#@ Technorati was all about. I really never understood the value of that site. It's continually down, too. Seems like every time I attempt to do something, there's an error message, LOL.

And then Digg, a stupid website that boasted of so many links which otherwise should have been Googled out - come what may.

Then there was Furl, Lynx and God knows how many more such websites, each boasting of being the best.

I think now, no one bothers to link. Linking is so boring.

Here are some (really long) list of social bookmarking websites

Not sure if I'd like to use all that. What is your strategy today?

Sanebox - email filtering mechanism - is it really worthy of it?

Have you ever bothered about filtering your emails?

I think Gmail did a pretty good (maybe could have been better) job to filter emails and have them come up on my email list. In a way it filtered my emails. I could mark them as important and even star-mark it.

Here is something if you like -

SaneBox is essentially a massive filter, one that runs defense for your inbox. The service creates a separate folder in your email account. Email comes in, and SaneBox decides if it goes into the boo-boo bin, the folder, or if it stays in your inbox.

SaneBox is quite effective about cutting out email that you didn’t really want in the first place. It does lead to a much better email experience. The largest fear, I think, in using such a service, however, is that you might miss an important email.

Headlines matter

I was reading some parts of a blog here - http://www.socialable.co.uk/woman-gives-birth-to-alien-headlines-that-make-you-look/ - when I realised that Headlines are VERY IMPORTANT part of the article.

100% readership goes for the headlines than the actual contents and here is an awesome post that talks about the same in 11 articles
