POPSA San Francisco-based startup called 12seconds is a video version of Twitter, but how useful will it 12seconds borrows heavily from the concepts of Twitter, an increasingly popular tool for so-called microblogging, in which people write pithy, 140-character updates on the status of their daily lives. A posted "tweet" can be published on Twitter's main page and sent directly to people who are following the person who posted. While initially laughed off as a waste of time, Twitter, founded in 2006, has slowly been gaining traction as more and more people and companies are finding it a useful way to quickly share information with a broad audience.

POPSGet Satisfaction...Gets it. Great example of a web 2.0 company that has identified a real business need; this new service (overheard) is a natural extension that leverages their knowledge of the social web. Not sure how or if they make money, but my hats off...Bravo.

POPSFascinating use of Twitter by Zappos from RWW Not that I'm a big marketer or know anything about marketing but this was pretty fascinating. I like the fact that now employees in other countries (China & Indonesia are the examples) can tweet about their work conditions. What does this say about the global community & global companies? I mean, if you know about working conditions in China, how will that affect the way you shop? Pretty interesting.
