Well, whether you’re ready or not, here comes the new Digg 4. Its drastically better than the versions you have seen before and it definitely has better “social” capabilities incorporated within the platform. I’ve never really been a fan of Digg, but I’m definitely intrigued with what Kevin Rose has put together since creating the site. There’s no question about it that the company would sink without him. However, do you think this new release will be received well by the community?

This is really an interesting service and very useful for all you Tennis fans. There are so many geo location, social networks, and other networking platforms out there. So, its really nice to see a social network related to sports that brings people together in real life to meet up and play a game face to face. This service takes social networking and brings it to life. Are you willing to leave the internet for a little while?

MySpace was once one of the most popular social networks on the internet. Now, they’ve become a thing of the past. Do you think MySpace is going to run themselves into the ground or will they stay to their roots and remain in the music industry? I believe MySpace only appeals to a certain crowd at this point, but for some reason select groups are still using it to promote themselves. What do you think of the status of the company?

Google has put yet another project into the eye of the public. This one could be another project by Google that is well received by consumers, particularly developers. It will be interesting to see with improvements and changes made to App Inventor how successful this project will be for Google in the long run. What do you think?

U.S rules that “Jail-breaking” is not illegal anymore, but is it still safe to do? You’re almost playing a guessing game in regards to the path you go down, but now the offer is there for the taking without any worries. However, be prepared, Apple won’t take kindly to it and you can forget them helping you with any issues should you encounter any. What are you going to do?

Is an Android Tablet in the works? That sounds pretty interesting now doesn’t it. However, can anything really compete with the iPad? Market share would be a big factor in determining success for an Android Tablet. The only thing I feel that may hold an Android Tablet back is the company getting ready to acquire the device. What is your reaction when I say K-Mart?

In this interview on the STZ Podcast, I chat with Louis Gray. We chat about the story behind an early adopter in the online space and what influence that allows when engaged in social media. I learned a lot from Louis and he provides a lot of information on how to get yourself in a position to succeed. Being successful is something everyone wants, but like anything, Louis notes that it takes time and consistency.

Twitter’s API problems are becoming a cause for concern. Not just for third party applications, but for the users in general. Something needs to be done and the issue needs to be corrected fast. All I know is the culprit to aggravate me the most in all this is TweetDeck. How about you? Have you had it already?
