<description><![CDATA[You don't write content for the Web as you write for print media, not when you want to sell something. If there's a similarity in writing styles, I would get you to think about radio ads. They have 15 or 30 seconds to get a key idea into your head before the music starts playing again. You have about 10 seconds worth of scanning from a visitor before they decide your site is worthy of their time, or if it lacks merit. So focus on readability: write in short paragraphs (not more than one idea per paragraph), using plenty of white space to allow an easy &quot;scanning&quot; of the page, use bullets to list important features and benefits and bold or italicize the ideas you want to highlight.<br/><br/>9 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Does a &quot;social search engine&quot; like newly launched Delver have a chance of becoming the new IT? Google's Joe Kraus does believe that social is &quot;the new black&quot; but how can a social startup compete with Google? Maybe the competition is out of the question and only a merger will help Delver succeed...<br/><br/>12 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Yahoo!'s MyBlogLog has a questionable &quot;help&quot; section where the company considers necessary to mock religious beliefs. A joke is a joke, true, but is the Help page of a site with millions of users the best place for jokes with religious connotation? I am sure that the Orthodox Christian members of the community don't feel very amused.<br/><br/>19 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[There are basically two components to social identity theory: personal identity based on individually acquired input and social identity as applied to self worth derived from associations with groups. The two variables might seem to be mutually exclusive, but they are really quite inextricable from one another. Looking at how individuals derive or modify self image from group interaction and success can explain, at least in part, reasons why people either migrate to or co-inhabit various networks.<br/><br/>8 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[A host of startups have addressed the need for people to aggregate and manipulate links in the last two years. From social bookmarking sites to browser extensions, links have been perhaps the most acted upon element of Web 2.0. However, I think what we are looking for is not a &quot;path&quot; back to some static page, but rather a way to access information and content, shall we say &quot;in route&quot; to or even at our Internet destination.<br/><br/>12 Vote(s) ]]></description>
