Keeping Track of Sources
Early on in the project phase I was searching for sources and people to follow using twitter and used and RSS feed to watch “software as a service” and “software + services” and it is remarkable how well this worked out for me. I have found several blogs and a lot of usefull information. I reciently went back to this because I felt like I was still missing A LOT of information. This time I noticed the advanced search feature and was able to get ONE rss feed for #saas OR #s+s OR #softwareplusservices OR #softwareasaservice which is pulling SO many more tweets than before. Turns out a lot of people use diffrent tags for these subjects. Now all I have to do is keep track of all these sources. Diigo is really helpful here, but it is still getting dfficult for me to keep track of where I saw certian information. I am thinking now it would have been a good idea to add a description to each bookmark as I added it telling MYSELF why I bookmarked it. Oh well, learn from experience I guess. There are a lot of new tools that I’m really trying to take advantage of, I just hope it pays off in the end.
