The #FollowFriday Series highlights today’s up-and-coming, active and all-around noteworthy Twitter accounts the AudioAcrobat staff deems worthy of following; while at the same time peering deeper into the soul(-cial media) of each account and providing a brief-yet-informative analysis.
After making 850+ #FollowFriday recommendations on Twitter throughout the first thirty six weeks of 2011, it seems as though the AudioAcrobat team can safely say that we’re very excited to share this week’s featured profile with our readers … as we are for the new Justice album to drop this autumn!
With last week’s feature focusing on a better, smarter looking personal profile – Path.To – being so well received, shared and re-tweeted by our readers, we’re once again back at it for another ½ fortnight’s worth of fun and factual tweets combined for your reading (and clicking) pleasure in this here WordPress weblog.
…Now to connect with the Play-Button for the Web!
In today’s posting, we will not only share this week’s featured #FollowFriday account, @wibbitz, but will also take our readers in for a closer look at twenty five of the three hundred forty four accounts @wibbitz is currently following … a mirror, if you will, into the soul(-cial media) behind an interactive player for sites & blogs that automatically turns the content from their RSS feeds into interactive clips.
Yep. That’s right, we just said it … “soulcial media”. We also said “an interactive player for sites & blogs that automatically turns the content from their RSS feeds into interactive clips” in the same sentence. Pretty spiffy, huh?
