Keeping up with your day-to-day social web activities may seem like an impossible task, but there’s an Air app that’s making it easier. Enter Skimmer, a social web reader by Fallon, an ad agency in Minneapolis.
Skimmer℠ is an Adobe AIR desktop application designed to streamline, beautify, and enhance the experience of participating in your most frequently used social networking activities. It improves upon your day-to-day interaction with multiple social networks, removing distractions and providing a rich experience that is particularly suited to multimedia content.
Skimmer’s primary view is an aggregated feed of posts from your friends on Twitter, Flickr™, Facebook®, YouTube, and Blogger. This feed content can be filtered by service, by group, or by keyword. Multimedia content in the feed is easily distinguished by the presence of thumbnails.
In Skimmer, you can see all your friends’ recent lifestreaming content on a single screen and customize how all of your content appears to your friends. And if you like, Skimmer will also supply embed code so you can put your customized profile on the web.
Pretty slick!
Terry did you try it? Are you satisfied? It looks like Cooliris designed for Mozilla FireFox but then they screw it !
I downloaded it earlier today, but haven’t used it extensively yet. The interface is really clean and slick, but I wish it had more options for blogs and other networks.
