Here is this week’s top round up of web 2.0 tools:
1. Got a tip off on Twitter about this web 2.0 tool. It’s a search engine called Kosmix, some people say it’s got to much information on it, but i say the more information the better the search result.
2. Splicd is a YouTube application that helps you shorten specific parts of the YouTube video, so it only plays the part you want.
Check out the splicd demo here:
3. Next on the web 2.0 tools list is a site called Ego Surf.
The about page says-
“You enter your name and your blogs web address. We search google and find links to your blog. We calculate your ego ranking.
We show you where your blogs appear in the search engines. 2Did we mention that we can search in Yahoo, MSN, del.icio.us and Technorati too? 1Got more than one blog or site? No problem, we can look for lots.”
4. About this site gives you simple information on any particular url fast. - Useful for some competitor research.
5. Finally on today’s web 2.0 tools list we have another search engine called Social Mention. A pure and simple social media search engine. The results are taken from a very good selection of social media authority’s.
More next week!
