If you’re a social network magician, you’ll know that a big part of these sites is “updating your status”. This can be something profound such as “discovered the meaning of life - 42!” to the more tedious “hey! Just discovered something big and green up my nose!“. But like it or hate it, status messages have become a big part of social networks and now Ping.fm has come along to make updating them a lot easier for you.

Here you go, one more not to be missed MakeUseOf list, now it’s about ‘Music Videos’. In particular, about web services letting you freely stream full-length music videos, create video playlists, share them with friends and so on. From basic music video link aggregators and search engines to feature-filled online music channels. Enjoy!

Myspace

Do you guyz know that myspace is most popular site on the web, outnumbering Big Brother Google in pageviews. On september 8, 2006 it had 106 million registered accounts with 230.000 new ones added daily. So considering that I decided to create something myspace users can make use of, a list of tools/websites for creating original and unique profiles.
