Twitter Annotations
Twitter revealed at WarbleCamp its upcoming feature, Annotations. Twitter annotations will be no more than tweets annotated with structured metadata. For instance, if you tweet about being listening to a particular song, besides the song name you will be able to annotate (I’m guessing an example here) where did you bought it, the performer’s name or the album or maybe where are you listening to it, making use of Twitter’s geolocation feature.

Plugins to integrate WordPress with Facebook Connect
Even if you are not in Facebook, it’s possible that you might have seen in some sites a blue button that says Connect with Facebook. What this application does, is to provide a system for you to log (or Connect) into that site using your Facebook account. For example, Digg, the popular link submission site, will let you login and submit links using your Facebook credentials and you can even publish each link submission on your wall. Even if it’s one more OpenID or Google Friend Connect (which is not nearly as good in terms of functionality), it’s backed up by millions of user with carefully constructed identity profiles. Now that’s cool. So, how do we integrate Facebook Connect with our WordPress blog? once again, WordPress plugins come to the rescue.
