ATTENTION: If Your Subscribers Use Gmail Read This – Online Marketing, Visibility and Business Blogging Tips from Denise Wakeman: “Essentially, any URL that has a capital letter after the http:// is not an active, clickable link in Gmail.”

Denise learned about this from Alex Mandossian’s Productivity Strategies Facebook page.

Essentially if immediately after the ‘http://’ the first character is a capital letter the URL becomes just text. Click through to Denise’s article to see some examples.

DeWitt Clinton wants you to finger your gmail friends.  Webfinger that is.

They’ve published a service, much like the old finger protocol, for you to ping your friends. Webfinger is not yet as much funs as the older finger command.  It used to be you could post a message or bio or whatever in to your .project or .plan file.

Webfinger gives you something different:

It’s basically your Google profile information. What I’d like to see is it to strip off and display your bio from the profile. Heck, why not even encourage Google to implement a .plan file setup?

I’d like you to do something, finger yourself -> Webfinger. Feel free to post your results in the comments below. I’d love to hear what you would like to see in this new tool as well.
