Social Media Netiquette [Social Networking]
Social media maven (and Lifehacker alumnus) Tamar Weinberg has written up "The Ultimate Social Media Etiquette Handbook" over at her Techipedia blog, and, based on the breadth of advice and coverage of networking apps, it's not an inaccurate title. Learn what not to do to benefit from LinkedIn, Twitter, FriendFeed, and other communities from someone who really knows.
Is Your Workplace Throwing A Holiday Party This Year? [Reader Poll]
The Job Bored blog points out that one year ago, media outlets and blogs were awash with write-ups on how to "get the most out of your office holiday party" and the like. This year, well, not so much. Still, while many presume that employers make their first cuts to extras like liquor-stocked gatherings, some take a long view of employee morale and team-building and haven't cut their festivities. We thought we'd ask our readers, in their multitude of workplaces: What's your workplace doing this year to celebrate the holidays? Is the belt tightening around your festivities, or are you partying like it's, uh, 2007? Vote your answer in the poll below. Photo by Squish_E.
Amarok 2 Released, Windows and Mac Versions in Beta [Featured Linux Download]
Linux only: Amarok 2, the open source media center we'd previously toured while it was in beta, is now available in a release version for Linux systems, and in pre-released beta for Windows and OS X. There aren't a ton of new features between the later beta release and this "final" (that will still get a lot of development focus), but a lot of interface and navigation quirks have been cleaned out. Amarok 2 has been pre-built for most major Linux distributions (with KDE dependencies), while the Windows installation (which ran pretty darned laggy on my XP desktop) can be had through the KDE on Windows installer. Lifehacker East lacks a Mac system, so anyone who's tried out that beta (PPC and Intel available) can tell us how it runs in the comments. Amarok 2 is a free download for Windows, Mac, and Linux systems.
