This week: holograms you can touch and feel, a Social Media Apocalypse, what is customer experience, a fight on who unfollowed who the first on Twitter and information about the most engaged brands on social media.
Omegle is a brand-new service for meeting new friends. When you use Omegle, we pick another user at random and let you have a one-on-one chat with each other. Chats are completely anonymous, although there is nothing to stop you from revealing personal details if you would like.
Somehow I think this is a weird service. I agree the beauty of the Internet is that you can easily meet people you don't know, however @random does not add any value. On the otherhand, people could end up married by talking to complete strangers. Although those two people weren't complete strangers, they had something in common: their names.
Maybe it is great tool, however I think you just need something more than a button to have a real chat, although you can also built trust during the chat and not only before the chat starts.
"Computers are incredibly fast, accurate and stupid. Humans beings are incredibly slow, inaccurate and brilliant. Together they are powerful beyond imagination."
I love and live social media and therefore I help people and enterprises in how they can use social media in a way that adds value for them.
In the past I used to be a successful long distance swimmer who won several national championships and crossed the the IJsselmeer three times (a swim of approximately 25km).
In the present I am a social media evangelist at Capgemini, technological optimist, blogger and consultant.
