Here’s a visual list of top Twitter users based on their “retweet” power. Confused? It basically means that tweets written by these people are retweeted (or forwarded) very often by other members of the Twitter universe.
The list includes Twitter accounts of popular bloggers (@scobleizer, @techcrunch), celebrities (@kimkardashian, @aplusk), media (@nytimes, @cnn) as well as some very active Twitter users like @cheth, @flipbooks, @buzzedition, etc.
While I am not sure how this data was compiled, most Twitter users that are on this list do have very “strong” retweet power. Earlier this month, one of my stories on verified accounts was tweeted by @Alyssa_Milano (she found it through @problogger) and that resulted in a flood of new visitors to this blog. It was nearly like the Digg effect.
Update: This PDF file has an updated list of most retweeted Twitter users of all time according to @dailyrt, a site that tracks the most popular tweets on Twitter. Thanks@kim and @Twitter_Tips.

Virtual Video Tours
This interactive video is from yellowBird, a Netherlands based company that uses a special video camera fitted with six lenses to capture all the possible views simultaneously. The camera footage is then stitched together into a single stream of video using the Flash format that can then be embedded on web pages.
BBC has more on how these virtual video tours are recorded and produced. The technology was recently demonstrated live at TEDx Amsterdam as well though its not available to businesses yet.
]]>How do you use social networks like Twitter and Facebook if you are computer shy or don’t have access to the Internet?
Well, you can use a mobile phone to post updates without a computer but this woman is using something that most of us can’t even imagine — see uses a pen to write her tweets on a piece of paper and then send them to Twitter using a fax machine.
Hard to believe? Watch this news story:
The woman, whose Twitter handle is @dorothy_celery, uses a service from Celerythat lets people send and receive email messages through a fax machine without requiring a computer or an Internet connection. Other than email, Celery now works with Twitter and Facebook as well.
The service costs about $8.98 a month and you can not only send tweets via fax but they’ll also fax you back any @replies to your Twitter account. Thanks

“The September 2009 edition of Famitsu Wave has released in Japan sporting a DVD containing an eight-minute segment on Final Fantasy XIV. A lot of new information has come out of the DVD and we’ve got it for you.
Eorza is the name of a region that’s the main setting of the game and as a full world, Vana’diel (from Final Fantasy XI) is naturally a little bigger. The actual world the game takes place in is called Haiderin. The style of Haiderin will be different from Vana’diel, aiming for a “high-fantasy” style setting. They want the setting to be more modern in comparison to Final Fantasy XI’s more middle-age setting. There will be advanced technology in the world, as you’ve clearly seen from the skyships in the trailer.”

Michael Jackson apparently passed awaythis afternoon. It was confirmed by the LA Times. He was 50 years old and was rushed to the hospital today after suffering a heart attack at his LA home. He was a legend, famous almost all his life. Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones, especially his children.

Michael Jackson came to fame as a member of The Jackson 5 and was known as a child with immense talent and an angelic voice. No one knew then the dance genius living within, but once Jackson mixed his iconic choreography with his infectious melodies, well, the world of music was never the same. Jackson’s voice was pure, but his dancing was sometimes angry, suggestive, andalwaysentertaining. Here, I’ve rounded up a dance retrospective I hope you’ll enjoy.

So the question of reviewing Mr. Bay’s film by normal movie standards becomes an interesting one. Is there a compelling, science-fiction plot to add some storytelling to the explosions? That would be a no. Are the characters filled out in such a way that you care about them? No, in fact, I find them incredibly annoying. Is it funny? Well, not even a robot humping Megan Fox’s leg, or a lingering shot of John Turturro’s crotch could get my audience full of tweens laughing much. But let’s face it, there are plenty of inane, unfunny movies that are still fun to watch thanks to the special effects. And yet, despite all the hype, the action sequences in this particular movie are better described as “bludgeoning” than “awe-inspiring.” So here we go, just read more.
The truth is, no matter what I or anyone else says about Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, audiences around the globe will flock to see it. I mean, duh — it’s big, it’s shiny, it goes boom, and it has boobs. It’s just what the doctor ordered for audiences looking for some good old-fashioned Hollywood escapism just when it’s getting too hot to use our brains. That’s all fine and good, and to be honest, I don’t blame audiences. Star Trek got this Summer off to an outstanding start, but many of the big-budget movies that followed have failed to deliver a similar thrill ride. We’re thirsting for fun at the movies again!
First, the plot description: Autobots are good and Decepticons are bad. Decepticons want to destroy the sun or some such and the Autobots like the humans even though some humans are jerks to them. Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox are back as Sam Witwicky and Mikaela, two lovesick kids struggling to keep their romance going long-distance as Sam attends an East Coast college.
Honestly, the college scenes are the best, most hilarious part of the movie. And I mean that half-sarcastically, half-sincerely. For one thing, he’s in college for two whole days before he has to go to Egypt to save the world. In that amount of time, he manages to befriend an obnoxious and fast-talking (everyone talks so fast in this movie!) roommate, he gets entangled with every young boy’s fantasy blond coed (to the dismay of Mikaela), and he has a total meltdown in his first class. Oh, and Sam’s mom eats pot brownies and goes completely insane.
It’s two and a half hours of merciless silliness that would be sort of “ha-ha, what is going on in this movie?!” funny if it weren’t so loud and visually incoherent. I waited and waited for a slow, lingering shot of a fully formed Transformer glimmering and sparkling in the sun so we could gawk at its scale and coolness. I wanted so badly to see a Transformer come out with a newer, cooler weapon than we’ve ever seen before and use it in a creative and interesting way mid-battle.
Alas, Michael Bay has no time for that (he only gave himself two and a half hours), and in effect the robots are like trash heaps that roll and tumble across the screen at a rate that makes you want to pop an Advil. You know what Bay does feel the need to present in slow motion? You guessed it! Megan Fox’s mega-tanned boobs, butt, and lips. I guess I wish he would have spent some time on Josh Duhamel’s chest — at least that would have given me something fun to look at.
