Social Blend Decadence Mk II: After the FOWA [61:57m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Presented by Greg Davies (cGt2099 from The-TrukstoP.com), Joe Fowler (SilentJay74 from JuicySnake.Blogspot.com), Brian Hill (Bdog2g2 from MixxingBowl.com), and Tamar Weinberg (Tamar from Techipedia.com), the Social Blend examines the latest news and opinions hitting the world of social media. The show’s main focus is on Mixx.com, yet focuses on other sites and contenders in the social media field.

This week’s episode continues as we’re joined by Blakovitch, and Reem Abeidoh aka Nomadelle, and we discuss Mixx API, Mixx on Facebook, and the new Share This link available on all Mixx stories. The Digg Town Hall gets reviewed, and Greg also talks about the new Round Up podcast he’s doing with Andy Sorcini aka Mr Baby Man.

Joe’s videos of the week include the new bad-ass Iron Man trailer (which you could go and watch. Like, right now), and a video on feline activity during the night. Reem then talks about some of the sexy new updates and features with MyBlogLog. Greg highlights some funny law enforcement photos as well as a skyscraper that looks like the Death Star. Blakovitch brings up the legal issues surrounding WikiLeaks.

We also discuss an article by Reem called, “I am not your Digg Whore”; a short piece examining how people can misuse IM in the realm of social media. Our user focus this week is on Mortalwind, and as per usual we dive into the Mixx Lounge and take a quick look around.
