POPSClipmarks encourages censorship? I thought I might share some tidbits I have learned about censorship here on Clipmarks. Many of know (or maybe not) that you can 'block' comments by other clip users on your clipmarks. While this may be a tool, it appears it only supports those who would mis-use it. Anyone with an opposing opinion can be silenced if the clipper doesnt want others to see anyones comments but those they agree with. I'm ashamed of Clipmarks for allowing this 'tool' to be so easily misused, without any administrative or moderator based decision. So much for the open exchange of free thought and viewpoints.

POPSLifestreaming sites can organize Web lives
Friendfeed can gather updates from dozens of social Web sites, making it simple to arrange all my Twitter posts, Gmail Chat status updates and other online tidbits in one profile. Profilactic: People looking to funnel the most social Web content onto one site may like Profilactic. The site can tap into almost 200 social media sites, which run the gamut from social review site Yelp to ones I had never heard of, such as TwitPic, which lets you share images on Twitter. Users can also add feeds from other sites. Swurl: Though it can't gather information from as many sites as FriendFeed or Profilactic, Swurl's looks set it apart. The site was my favorite in part because of its very clever "Timeline" feature, which let me see all my online activities on one page, organized into a calendar-like grid. I could then click each square of the grid to see details, like the full text of a review of a bar I wrote on Yelp, or larger versions of photos I had uploaded to Flickr

POPSA Trojan Horse? This seems far fetched but let's see how it plays out. After the allegation was removed from another clip by the clipper, that paid trolls are on our site, I don't know what to believe anymore. The evil in people's hearts all in the name of greed and money never cease to amaze me.
