Today I am happy to report I did exactly what I said I was going to do. I dug a little deeper to see what I could find out. The latest news about Open Social sparked an interest and I wanted to know more!
Google's new Open Social is combining some of the major players in the social networking community to create and implement a software program which is compatible within all the communities.
I don't quite get the technical stuff but as a social networking junkie, it's good news to me. I may not be able to write the programs but I can certainly enjoy the perks of someone else's hard work. Thanks to all you software people. Kudos to you!
You can find out more details reading the following article on the Official Google Blog.
Another great place I found some easy for me to understand information about Open Social was Blog.Pmarca.com.
I am just hoping this will make my life easier as a social network user easier. I don't want to figure out how things works in each community. Creating something universal sounds like a good plan to me.

Yuwie Pays You To Be Active!

Imagine being paid the amount of page views for surfing pages in a social networking community. Yuwie does! Not only does Yuwie pay you for the pages you view,you will get paid for the page views performed by members in your downline ten levels deep.
There is definitely money to be made. Let me explain what Yuwie considers to be a valid page view. You can find this information in your Yuwie help section as well as the answers to many other frequently asked questions.
Question / Issue
What actually counts as a paid page view?
Answer / Solution
When anyone views any of these pages, it counts as 1 page view for you:
1. your profile page
2. your blog pages
3. view all your friends
4. view all your comments
5. your picture pages
6. if someone views one of your shared layouts
When you view any of these pages, it counts as 1 page view.
1. any of your control panel pages, including but not limited to: settings, messaging, friends, referrals, favorites, etc.
The following does not count as a page view:
1. Refreshing/reloading a page
2. Any page that's viewed within 3 seconds of the last page doesn't count
If you ask me, this seems like an awesome opportunity to earn some extra income every month. If you are like me, it's a piece of cake. I may not comment a lot on people's profile pages but I do enjoy checking out their pages.
Joining Yuwie is completely FREE, you have absolutely nothing to lose!

A Recent Article in the New York Post About Google Caught My Eye
In the past week or two I have seen a lot of different articles mentioning the release of Google's new Open Social. I really didn't grasp the whole concept of what Open Social was until reading the following article in the New York Post.
It looks very promising to me since I am a member of a ton of social networking. It could make my social networking nightmare a dream come true. The following excerpt from the New York Post article is what sparked my interest.
Its initiative, which it calls OpenSocial, is an appeal to software developers and Web sites to cooperate in adopting a single set of software standards for the little software widgets that can add a social-networking layer to all Web sites. Agreement on a standard would save users from the aggravation of joining multiple networks and save developers from the aggravation of writing code that works only with specific sites.
I will be spending the rest of the evening seeing what else I can learn about Open Social. In the meantime, you can read the rest of the article by clicking here.
