What is the Politics in Canada Application?

If you are Canadian (or at least wish you were) and are interested in current political affairs, then Politics in Canada is the application for you. This application allows you to demonstrate what political party you support. After installing the application, all you have to do is enter your postal code, then select the party that you support, and an icon (representing your political affiliation) will be placed on a map of your province.

I’ve been watching this application for the past week as more people join up. This allowed me to see what areas supported what party. A nice graph is also available to show support throughout the nation and by province. The goal of the application is to raise awareness and to get people involved politically. This is seems to be successfully accomplished by providing links to all the party’s websites.

Pros

• The maps are linked up with Google Maps, allowing you to easily see the whole country
• Everything is broken down conveniently nationally and provincially
• Links to the political party’s official websites

Cons

• Would be nice to see a description of each political party, but it seems that the developer is already on top of this and should be appearing soon.

Ki Work Bounce

What is Ki Work Bounce?

What is the ultimate networking application for people who work online? The answer would have to be Ki Work Bounce. This application allows an individual to create a profile, aka “Ki Offer”, which can help promote who they are and what type of work they can do. Once “Offer” is complete, all information is organized into an easy to ready profile that is then placed on a network where people can see what type of work you are looking for or even let them know that you are hiring.

The important feature of Ki Work, is that your friends can “bounce” your information around their networks as well, ultimately increasing the potential of finding you a job. Another useful feature is the ability to ask people on your network questions. However, I wasn’t able to test out this feature because there was no one on my network. This seems to be the major problem with Ki Work at the moment, as the application and networking won’t be useful until more people add it and use it.

Another interesting feature of the Ki Work application is the ability to create a URL for your offer, which is automatically registered with Google, and can then be posted as an email signature, on blogs or online message boards…again furthering the possibility that individuals looking to hire can see what you have to offer.

Pros

• Amazing potential to establish professional contacts for online work
• Ability to have an in-depth summary of yourself and your abilities; or a short and concise one that gets right to the point.

Cons

• Would be useful to have better a explanation on how to fill out the Ki Offer

Socialmoth Facebook Application

What is the Socialmoth Facebook Application?

Socialmoth was developed by Paul McKeller. It allows you and your friends to have group confessionals. After you and seven of your friends install apps, you can start confessing things to each other. You know that the confessions came from one of your friends, but you won’t know exactly which friend said what. It reminds me of Post Secret a little bit

Socialmoth Pros

• Get stuff off your chest with people you know without them really knowing it was you who said it.
• Easy to use
• No glitches

Socialmoth Cons

• I can definitely see this sort of thing being a huge rumor mill. You might have some friends that will assume that some horrible thing was said by you (but it wasn’t) and start spreading it around.

Overall, this is a pretty nifty app. If you want to get something off your chest, give this app a try.

Video Facebook Application

 

Do you have a video you want to share with your Facebook friends? The Video Facebook application can help you do it.

What is the Video Facebook Application?

Unlike most Facebook applications that are created by third party developers, the Video application was developed by Facebook. That means you can count on the Facebook quality that you’ve counted on.

The Video application allows you to upload personal videos to your Facebook profile much like you can on Myspace. You can use this application to send video messages to your friends.

In order to view and upload videos, you need the latest version of Flash Player.

Facebook Video Pros

• The Video application gives you three options to publish videos
  • Record right in your browser
  • Publish from your mobile phone
  • Upload a file
• Supports higher quality video than YouTube. No more grainy looking clips
• It’s developed by Facebook!
• Have the ability to control who sees your videos

Facebook Video Cons

• I can’t think of many here. The Video application looks awesome!

I think the Facebook Video application has a chance to give YouTube a run for their money. I’m looking forward to seeing what Facebookers will use this application for. Most will probably post druken videos, but many will create creative and entertaining content. If used correctly, the Video application could be an effective tool to promote your business or brand. Go and install the Facebook Video application pronto.
