Webify.Us

I’ve setup my accounts on a number of social networking sites. I’m adding friends and slowly building up my networks. But, I have not yet commented here on the likes of MySpace or Facebook for business use.

Tonight, thanks to Robert Scoble’s Link Blog, I found an interesting post on how Cisco is using Facebook. Check out “Cisco System Is Using Facebook To Let Folks Get to Know Their Top Employees Better” - by Garrett Smith.

It’s official. I received the following email from Jaiku today:

Wonderful Jaiku users,

Exciting news, Jaiku is joining Google!

While its too soon to comment on specific plans, we look forward to working with our new friends at Google over the coming months to expand in ways we hope you’ll find interesting and useful. Our engineers are excited to be working together and enthusiastic developers lead to great innovation. We look forward to accomplishing great things together.

In order to focus on innovation instead of scaling, we have decided to close new user sign-ups for now. But fear not! All our Jaiku services will stay running the way you are used to and you will continue to be able to invite your friends to Jaiku.

We have put together a quick Q&A about the acquisition at http://jaiku.com/help/google
