Digital Point Forums. You know I'm joking. In my opinion, AOL. I hear many people using it, but what do you exactly use it for?
Every stupid social networking site. MySapce, Facebook, Twitter, LiveJournal and the ilk. The ideas behind them are simple and the code needed to create them is dead easy to put together. Ithink my biggest issue with these site is that they are so stinking popular, and frankly so easy I'm just annoyed I didn't set one up first and become a billionaire.
YOUTUBE ??? It is one of the best (if not the best) video sharing site. You can say I am pretty much addicted to it.
Myspace, people put up the worst background with upsized pic that take 5 minutes to open. I just looks so ghetto.
twitter and youtube for sure. twitter because its completely pointless. youtube because the video quality is atrocious. dailymotion has far better quality. I think you're dead wrong abuot craigslist. it is EXTREMELY useful and there are no alternatives.
I love Twitter, hate MySpace, Facebook, and Digg. Beginning to hate Stumble. Tired in general of bookmarking sites. How many can there be? New ones pop up every day. Craigslist is out of control with the community policing. People get flagged off just because there are a bunch of idiots with a flagging forum who have no lives. I got flagged off trying to sell a bicycle because one of the flagazoids was trying to sell hers on the same forum, and got all her buddies to flag it over and over.
Twitter is an awesome way to promote your site. I only have around 100 followers, and every time an update is automatically posted, I get almost all of them visiting within a day or two. Plus, if you become part of your own little "community" of followers and followees, you can get some great link exchanges with some nice sites. Once the people get to know you, you're automatically guaranteed to get some traffic from it. Of course, if you just post spam all the time, everyone will block you, and you won't prosper. It's one of those places where people have to be real and be involved. Only takes a couple of minutes a day to drop in and see what everyone is doing, and pop a few messages up. I actually have people in England worrying about why I wasn't sleeping! It's awesome. Did you hear about the guy who was arrested in some foreign country, and his twitter friends got him out of jail by contacting the embassies? That was so cool! There will be more such stories, believe me.
