Twine Launched

I got an email from the TwineTeam today;

We’re proud and excited to announce: Twine is open to the public.. It’s been a year since beta launched. And in that time we’ve had:
• over 500,000 unique visitors
• nearly 20,000 twines created
• about 1 million items added to twine • 5 million page views

We couldn’t have done it without you. We would like to extend a HUGE thank you to all of our beta testers. We appreciate your constructive feedback, your dedication and, especially, thank you for believing in us.

I met the Twine Team at the Web 2.0 Summit last year and joined the beta program - eagle and the site and service has now evolved -

Redesigned Interest feed – We’ve made it even easier to keep up with your twines. The new interest feed lets you filter by twine and item. Use short form or long form for easy scanning. Click “Catch Up” if you’ve read all of your updates in a twine to easily track what you’ve already seen. Login to check out your new interest feed.

Tikitag

For years we have been anticipating the day when RFID tags would be ubiquitous, with Tiktag we can now began writing and reading our own tags. It's so simple even a dog could tag his owner, or a child a house at Holloween to inform the other kids with an NFC enabled phone of the trick or treats.

Getting started with tikitag is easy, just create an account then order the RFID Smart Card Reader with 25 tags. Download the software and go to the dashboard to begin making your first tikitag
