Understanding Twitter Basics
Written by Preeti Prakash on February 18, 2009
I am much appreciated to know that my last post about twitter prompted many people to join it. So, here is another post to help you understand Twitter better.
Everyone Tab:
Although all the features of it are self explanatory, still there is one tab named ‘Everyone’, in the right sidebar, which itself doesn’t indicate for what it stands for.
The whole point of the Everyone tab is to display an unfiltered, unbiased, fresh 20-tweet “snapshot” of all (public) tweets from the entire world – to and from people you don’t know – and even in alphabets (and languages) you can’t read.

Is Yahoo trying to imitate Google?
Written by Preeti Prakash on February 10, 2009
On every occasion/ holiday season, Google comes up with something nice in their search results. This Valentine’s Day season, Yahoo! announced something similar. They are running a heart-border around the Valentine’s Day ads on the right side of search page. The hearts show up on certain Valentine’s Day queries like gifts, cards, candy etc., to grab the user’s attention so that they can easily spot what they are looking for.
So, to make profits, this is a good opportunity for Yahoo! Advertisers who are selling Valentine’s Day products.
