HootSuite, taking the tedium out of twitter

I have come to the realization that twitter is not going away any time soon and that businesses can benefit from incorporating it with their existing marketing strategies. Actually spending time on twitter, posting new tweets and listening to what is being said is some what tedious, or at least compared with HootSuite. With HootSuite you can schedule a whole week worth of tweets in a few minutes, it really is an amazing service.

Songbird, The Music Player That Rocks My World

Get Songbird!
I have used a wide variety of programs to play music, Songbird is by far the best music player. I have been using different music players since 1996 on computer, I have finally found one that truly makes me happy! Songbird does the following (internet connection required)

• Automatically downloads album art so you can see what your listening to
• Automatically downloads the lyrics of the song you are playing
• Can display photographs from the web of currently playing artist
• Alert you when artist in library will be playing a concert near you
• Last.fm
• Very fast music library, I have a large music collection and Songbird is still pretty fast for me
• Supports a variety of add-on to include additional features, think Firefox
• Web browsing integrated into play, you can actually browse the web from this music player

Just to name a few. Additionally you can get Songbird Portable and install it on USB Flash drive and use Songbird on any computer, EVEN COMPUTER YOU DON'T HAVE PERMISSION TO INSTALL PROGRAMS ON! This is truly the Firefox of music players.
