Open The Dialogue

Here are some “back-to-school” links of note from Twitter & FriendFeed.  Later this week we’ll be publishing a handy guide for things you can do to start the “school year” off right.

• Facebook Adding Stream Clicks to Page Insights – no individual clicks just yet, but we’re getting there.  This is certainly an important metric to have.

• SEO lessons from Google News – insight from Google themselves on how items for Google News are ranked.  Important from a PR POV when helping clients craft news and announcements.

• MSNBC acquires EveryBlock – first Newsvine, now EB (a major player in the hyperlocal news/aggregation world).  Some pretty interesting moves.

• Google and their systems – Domestic Trends gives us a cool way to analyze economic data and now PageRank helps scientists study ecosystems.

• WordPress.com becomes real-time – RSS muscles back on to the scene and now millions of blogs can push their updates into the social web.  Pretty big step in terms of tech with a lot more, I’m sure, to come.
