You may or may not have noticed that the Five on Friday - five fabulous web tools and sites of the week series has not been updated for the last few months. If you have never read any of the 5 on Friday posts it was basically my take on the hot web 2.0 sites that had popped up that week and tickled my fancy, and as with all social media, I shared my findings with you guys.
The SPANKING NEW Weekly Social Media sites, tools and posts round up, takes the old format a stage further. I will keep the top tools, add in some top posts and maybe mix that up with a sprinkling of SEO, and as always it will be presented on a Friday.
Enough of the chat, lets get down to the links and recommendations.
