Taken from Mashable.com:

"a niche RSS tool that gives you updates on television programs you’d like to keep track of. Now, if you love a show enough, you are likely aware of the basics about a television show, but Orangutag brings more information to give you up to date information about your favorite programs.For each show that you follow, you’ll also be able to break it down into episodes. Mark the ones you’ve seen, and subsequently you’ll be able to see which ones you’ve missed, by power of deduction. When you view the details of a particular episode, you’ll see that this has a user-generated element, that allows users to add their own reviews to Orangutag. There’s a bit of social networking involved, which lets you layer in different RSS feeds for following other users’ watchlists, or their activity on the site."

Taken from Mashable.com:

"When you’re planning an event - be it a personal or business-related shindig - and you want to get the attendee list all sorted quickly and easily, the Web service which comes immediately to mind is likely to be Upcoming.what if you don’t want to do things mainstream? What if you want to get really selective with your invites and communiques, and sync up your event data with utilities like Microsoft Outlook, Apple iCal, or Google Calendar, or monitor invites’ status via RSS? And what if plans change quick and you need to get some real-time edits to your compadres out quick? What then? Well, then there’s Coordinatr. Coordinatr is a simple event manager. But it’s also nothing less than superb because of its bareboned, ultra-clean nature. For one, it’s a heck of a lot more attractive than the more universally renowned services mentioned above. If you’re into that whole Web 2.0 elegance thing that a select percentage of site engineers and designers these days continue to pay heed to, you’ll enjoy Coordinatr very much. Also, its functions are focused on convenience and social harmony. Synchronicity is key, and Coordinator manages to shine with the best of the biz in that respect."

About us

Amber_bamber — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 14:01:58 CST

They're calling it Web 2.0, and it's changing everything. Marketing, advertising, shopping, economics, politics, the environment, creativity, fame, even love. It's breaking down international borders. It's a big huge party and everyone is invited. Social networking is giving consumers a voice to speak, and it is forcing advertisers and policy makers to listen. But how will they respond?

We are the Social Communications group of Campbell-Ewald in the great city of Detroit. We have created this wiki to catalogue the numerous categories of social media websites and tools, and will provide a better understanding of the uses and users of these communities, and how we as both consumers and advertisers can use them to our benefit.

Use the navigation tool on the left to browse through all of the categories and sub-categories, to get a taste of the many different flavors of social media. Each site's page has a link to its homepage, and we encourage you to jump in and get the full experience.

The Social Communications group is:

Dave Linabury: SVP, Experience Planning Manager, Group Director
Jason Macemore: VP Experience Planning Manager
Helena Johnson: Strategic Planner
Cathrine Catcho: Experience Planner
Amber King: Intern, Experience Planner

If you love this wiki and are just a huge fan of social media and communications, we also recommend checking out Mashable.com, for the latest news and updates in the world of social networking. The site has been a an invaluable tool in creating this wiki and updating its content. Mashable also offers its own social network.

Also, Wikipedia is really awesome too.

DotHomes

Taken from DotHomes.com:

"The DotHomes site allows home seekers across the UK, South Africa and the US to search thousands of real estate Websites from one place, linking through directly to the original source of information, the listing agent / broker."

Basically this site is like a search engine for property. A user types in what city, state and type of home they are looking for in the search bar. The search engine brings the person listings in that area, and shows them on a map exactly where the listing is located.

This is a great way to gauge prices in an area, as well as take a first look at the kinds of things that are available.

The only downside is that it does not include "For sale by owner" listings.
