Five on Friday - five fabulous web 2.0 tools and sites of the week (17-10-08)

October 17th, 2008 by Andy Merchant


My top  Five web 2.0 tools, sites and applications of the week:

1, First off is Do You Feed which turns your own rss feeds into a iPhone friendly site. - Neat!

2, Like Umm is a ratings directory. So for example if your looking for top rated technology sites, click on the technology tab and you will be given a list of rated technology sites.

3, Here is this weeks Twitter offering: Friend or Follow. Submit your Twitter screen name to find out who you’re following that’s not following you back, and who’s following you that you’re not following back. - Watch out for the rabbit being stroked!

4, Top of the Blogs is the next up, does what it says on the tin, rates your blog! - Blogs are ranked on various criteria allowing visitors to search the best blogs by category, tag, country, or language.

5, Bandcamp is the final web 2.0 application for this week.

Bandcamp isn’t Yet Another Place to Put Your Music. We power a site that’s yours. So instead of our logo plastered between banner ads for Sexy Singles Chat, your fans see your design, your music, your name, your URL. You retain all ownership rights, and we just hang out in the background handling the tech stuff.

One great feature of Bandcamp is the analytics’s which show you where your fans are coming from, what they’re listening to and when, even which tracks they’re obsessed with versus which ones they’re skipping over.

“In a crowded and confusing market I have always felt that well thought out PR campaigns deliver far more bang for the buck. This is especially true when it's with creative partner companies such as Liberate Media. Traditional marketing and ad spend can never focus on your target audience in the same way that opinion pieces and editorial can.

“I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Liberate Media's understanding of the market place as well as the technical issues is second to none.”
