uTag - Reward your influence (URL shortening with ad banners)
Not sure why I'm bookmarking this, except that it may be useful to other people. It looks like a really well-thought-out service, except that of course they don't seem to include (prominently enough to spot in a quick walk-through of the site) any screenshots so you actually know what your visitors are going to see.

Clive Thompson, "Brave New World of Digital Intimacy," The New York Times Magazine (Sept. 7, 2008), p. MM2
On the idea of "ambient intimacy." Lots of discussion of Twitter and Facebook. Thoughtful and interesting. Not finished yet. Too long for my Twitter-addled attention span. Permalink: http://snipr.com/3nj2z

Find Friendfeeders Across The Web
Cool tool. Put in a Friendfeed username and it will scan all that username's Friendfeed "friends" and present you with all their linked external services. Handy if you want to, say, add all your Friendfeed contacts on LinkedIn or subscribe to their delicious bookmarks. From Hao Chen of course.

Matt - Multi Account Twitter Tweeter - Brought to you by Carsonified!
Cool idea. Post to multiple Twitter accounts using a single sign-in. And to think, at one time I thought Ping.fm and HelloTXT were overkill.
