James Little on the Web

You can find me involved with lots of stuff online, here are some of my favourites:

James Little, Linkedin

Flickr is my favourite photo sharing service. I’m also quite a fan of their photo map that allows you to position photos of your travels anywhere in the world.

YouTube is on of the video content services that don’t pay for your content – that isn’t google way. But they still dominate online video and you can find most music videos and funny snippets here.

Facebook is the “now” social network, I’m also on Orkut, Bebo, Hi5, MySpace, ShareMyNZ, OldFriends and several others; but most people I know are on Facebook. If you would like to connect please include a message explaining why, it’s usually advisable to only conenct with people you know.

Linkedin is a more professional social network, if you would like to be connected please offer me a job.

Last.fm is a really cool music library that you can use to find hot new stuff or cool old stuff – and to see what your friends, colleagues and random people are listening to; and what you listened to yesterday, this can be used to focus you to new music that fits your tastes, like google search tailors searching to match your clicks.

Twitter was one of the first micro-blogging applications. It doesn’t allow you to use more than 140 characters and it does allow you to SMS updates. Handy for people covering events and has been used in conjuction with Google maps to provide live updates on natural disasters.

Stumbleupon is my favoured bookmarking application, I’ve used others like Digg, Delicious, Yahoo MyWeb 2.0; but Stumbleupon has the quickest tagging mechanism – someone else has already done it. And Stumbleupon has the stumble feature. Unfortunately stumbleupon is unaware that some content isn’t english (though you can select other languages) and everything gets garbled as Latin1.
