Copyrightfriendly - home. 3 Ways to Share Pictures, Video, and Music on Twitter. Enhance the richness of your followers experience of Twitter by going multimedia with your tweets. In this guest post Michael Martine from Remarkablogger (@remarkablogger) shares three tools for sharing Images, Video and Music on Twitter. The array of Twitter tools is growing rapidly, but I only want to focus on 3 of them that really enhance my use of Twitter and offer something to give my followers beyond the basic 140 characters: Pictures, video, and a super-easy way to share links (especially music). 1. TwitPic TwitPic lets you upload pictures and automatically tweet links to them on Twitter. TwitPic also integrates with many popular Twitter desktop clients, such as TweetDeck. 2. 12seconds 12seconds is a brilliantly simple idea: you record a video that is exactly 12 seconds long. 12seconds for TwiTip on 12seconds.tv 3.

TwittyTunes sounds like it should be for sharing music, and it is. Of Course, There is More… || JAKE SHIMABUKURO || In his young career, ukulele wizard Jake Shimabukuro has already redefined a heretofore under-the-radar instrument, been declared a musical “hero” by Rolling Stone, won accolades from the disparate likes of Eddie Vedder, Perez Hilton and Dr. Sanjay Gupta, wowed audiences on TV (Jimmy Kimmel, Conan), earned comparisons to Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis, and even played in front of the Queen of England. With his new record Grand Ukulele, Shimabukuro’s star may burn even brighter. An ambitious follow-up to 2011’s Peace, Love, Ukulele (which debuted at #1 on the Billboard World Charts), the Hawaiian musician’s new record finds him collaborating with legendary producer/engineer Alan Parsons, best known for his work on Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon, The Beatles’ Abbey Road and his own highly successful solo project.

“It was very organic how it happened,” says Shimabukuro (she-ma-boo-koo-row). Urubamba. Zune - Social Networking Differentiates It From iPod. Microsoft has released details of its upcoming Zune product, an iPod-like device that is squarely aimed at challenging Apple's dominance of the online music market. TechCrunch, Engadget and PaidContent have all the details, so I just want to focus on a couple of interesting Internet features of Zune. 1) Zune will have a social network (iPod/iTunes doesn't) This is clearly going to wake Apple up, because a social networking aspect is the one glaring feature missing from its otherwise excellent iPod/iTunes online music combo.

Zune's social networking will be based in Zune Marketplace, the equivalent of iTunes. Songs can also be shared via wireless technology on the Zune device. It also seems that Zune will have as good a selection of music as iTunes, although details are sketchy at this stage. 2) Zune is centered on connectivity This is what Microsoft truly believes is its advantage over Apple - ability to connect Zune across a network of devices.

Summary: Zune Experience.
