Qualche dettaglio in più…

I have 20 years of experience in software development in both corporate environments and startups. I gained expertise in development by working with databases for 9 years as an engineer at Sybase. I went on to spend 3 years at Linkify, where I was the Chief Architect of an innovative content management and project collaboration system. I also contributed as a content reviewer on the book "Bitter EJB," which was published in 2003. I have a BS in Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon.

If you're on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and/or FriendFeed, this is an add-on for you. Installation creates a sidebar which is not only esthetically pleasing, and contains a ton of information and options, but is easy to open and collapse.

Once you link up to your accounts, you get practically everything in the sidebar - updates, friends, alerts - either for each service individually or all combined. It's also nice how the feed scrolls as it's updated. Here's a cool trick - Hover over an image in the sidebar and a full-sized version will be displayed in the middle of your browser. Move the mouse away and it's gone. It's also easy to update your status on all services simultaneously.

You'll also get 'alert' boxes in the lower right of your browser whenever there's an update to your feed. These can start coming in fast and furious, but they're very easy to customize by clicking on "options."

The sharing is very well done - clicking the share button in the left pane opens up a pop-over window with a couple of buttons. A Mailto: option would be nice, however, it's very cool how you can share either the whole page or only the part that interests you.

According to Yoono there are some new UI changes in the works, but here are some helpful tips:
* Options menus are available by clicking the little circles in the tabs in sidebar.
* Right-clicking the tabs will open up another set of options. From here you can get to a "Manage Widgets" page that will allow you to, among other things, add email. which is great.
* If you "close the sidebar" you can get it back from the View-->Sidebar menu.

I could write about more, including the integrated search and real-time results from OneRiot, but that should do it for now. This add-in is very well done and highly recommended!
