Best “Finds” of the Week

by | Mar 16, 2012 | Social Media/Networking

The “Daily Digital Digest” is a little newsletter I write for the newsroom every day.  In it, I share digital tools for journalists.  One good one each day.  Sometimes it’s a review, or it could be a thoughtful article, a link to something helpful, or some ideas that deserve extra attention.

{If you want on the mailing list drop me a line at [email protected], make sure it has your return e-mail address, and in the subject line or the body, the words:  Daily Digital Digest”}

Lately I’ve found some real gems, and figured I’d better share them with my VO buds.  ‘Wish I’d written these articles myself, but the next best thing is to pass ’em along!

THE TOP 8 FREE ONLINE IMAGE EDITORS
…and there isn’t a slacker in the bunch…in fact #1 is Photoshop.com.  Did I mention they’re free?

9 Social MEDIA HACKS I USE EVERY DAY
…an article from SOCIAL MEDIA TODAY…which I try to read as religiously as Mashable.  Best hint on this list (in my estimation):  #3, Read LinkedIn Today

BUFFER:  A SMARTER WAY TO SHARE
…on your browser, on your mobile, wherever you read (Zite, Instapaper, RSS)…Buffer helps you share all your great finds on your social media channels.

CLIPBOARD:  THE NEXT PINTEREST?
…and you’ve heard of Pinterest, right?  Whew!  Good.  Well, Clipboard is the sincerest form of flattery: imitation.  In some ways, it looks like a copycat, in other ways, I like it better.  Regardless, it’s simple and easy to use, and can be addicting.

Have a great weekend!
