The latest twitter update makes it easier for everyone to view and interact with tweets on the web in the same ways as you do from any twitter client. Twitter has now added the functionality to embed tweets or any conversation to a site or blog in a few clicks without needing any extra skills. You just need to copy and paste a few lines of code.

Hope Instagram for Android doesn’t rolls out just now. I’m unable to cope all these updates.

Embeddable tweets lets the users catch up the shared tweets directly without leaving your site. Visitors can follow the author with a single-click, reply, retweet, or favorite the Tweet instantly from the page itself. You can try it now in the newly launched Twitter. Steps to simply embed a tweet to a website:

1. Visit your or anyone else twitter profile. Then tap on the desired tweet or click Open to see the Details option.

2. Click on ‘Details’, so the permalink page of that particular tweet opens up.

3. Tap on ‘Embed this Tweet’ and a pop-up will appear. Choose the preferred alignment, copy the HTML code and paste it to the HTML section of your site or blog post.

It’s even more easier to embed Tweets on WordPress or Posterous Spaces.

WordPress bloggers can embed Tweets directly into their posts by simply copying the Tweet URL or using a familiar shortcode. Once published, WordPress instantly turns that URL or shortcode into an embedded Tweet.

Posterous Spaces has also enabled embedded Tweets. People can easily add Tweets using their existing workflows: Posterous’ browser bookmarklet, email, the Posterous Web Editor, or their iPhone or Android Apps. For more information, read Posterous Spaces’ announcement on their blog.

Just like IE8, Internet Explorer 9 has built-in developer tools which help developers to quickly determine and resolve HTML, CSS, and JavaScript related problems by making changes to code from within the browser which can be previewed live. These dev tools are generally not used by the basic users but comes handy to a webmaster or web designer. To access them, just click on the gear icon and select “F12 developer tools” or simply hit F12.

Then just navigate to the ‘Tools’ tab and choose from the listed tools. One amazing and useful tool is Resize, using which one can easily check how their webpage appears in different screen resolutions. You can define a custom resolution too.

There is a Ruler to accurately measure any arbitrary objects on the screen in pixels. There are multiple colors rulers and a magnifying glass is also available for precision. A defined ruler can be moved, resized, and re-angled. Once drawn, the ruler shows the (x,y) coordinates of each end relative to position of the points and the ruler length is shown at the center of the ruler in pixels.

A basic Color Picker tool is also there that lets you pick the color sample from any object on a webpage and indicates its RGB and HEX values. To use it, just position the cursor over an object and left-click to select its color. Then click Copy and close, the HTML value of color will be copied to clipboard. For professional task, we suggest using Instant Eyedropper which has a magnifier that shows multiple shades in a solid color.

Hope you liked this less know tip about Internet Explorer.

This simply means you can now see Active aka Online visitors on your site. There are free Real-Time Web Analytics services like whos.amung.us and Trend counter to track live traffic but they show bloated stats. On comparing whos.amung.us live stats with Analytics Realtime, we found that whos.amung.us shows double live visitors than what’s shown by Analytics. Certainly, the figures shown by Google Analytics are much precise.

Realtime traffic reports are a good way to measure the immediate impact of social media. With Real-Time, you can see the immediate impact to your site traffic whenever you publish a new blog post and share it on social sites like Twitter, Facebook, and Google+.

How to Access Real-Time Stats in Google Analytics –

Firstly, switch to the New Version of Google Analytics. (Click the “New Version” link at top right corner on the Analytics webpage). Then tap the Dashboards tab and select the Overview option listed under Real-Time (beta). The Real-time reports will be moved to the Home tab in the updated interface next week.

You will have access to Real-Time reports if you are an Administrator on your Analytics account, or if you have access to a profile without profile filters. Real-Time does not support profile filters.

Realtime reports are being enabled for several accounts and everyone would be able to access them in coming weeks. However, if you can’t wait then you can get it now by applying for early access here: https://services.google.com/fb/forms/realtimeanalytics/

It got enabled for us just in a few minutes after applying. To see real-time data reports, visit: https://www.google.com/analytics/web/#realtime. The webpage shows Pageviews per minute/sec along with the Top Active Pages, top referrals, top keywords, etc.

Unfortunately, the recent Google Search algorithm (PANDA update) seems to give more importance to these splogs rather than the original site. I’ve seen many instances where our site was being outranked by the content scrappers in Google search, this makes me sad and is pretty bothersome. A small example of this can be seen below:

As you can see in above screenshot, the scrapper site is ranking at 1st position whereas the original site is at 3rd position. This definitely drops down our organic traffic and the sploggers who just steal our work enjoy the benefit of it.

To combat against this, Google seems to have finally started working to improve their search algorithm and they need data points for testing. Matt Cutts (head of the Google webspam team) just tweeted a link, using which site owners can report about blog scrapers to Google. This is a specialised webpage to Report scraper pages, it says:

Google is testing algorithmic changes for scraper sites (especially blog scrapers). We are asking for examples, and may use data you submit to test and improve our algorithms.

From now onwards, if you ever find any spam site or blog who is lifting your articles and is ranking above your site in Google, then do report about them and help Google in improving their algorithm. For me, Panda is a sort of nightmare that has turned into reality, resulting in 50% drop in both traffic and revenue since last few months.

To Report a Scraper site, just visit here. Input the search query, then URL of original site page and the scrapper site page. You can share some details too. Click Submit!

Share Content on Google+ directly from a Website or Blog –

If a reader finds an article useful or impressive on a certain website, then he/she would now be able to share it directly to Google+ without the need to manually copy-paste the post link and share it. To share, just click on the +1 button on a webpage, tapping the “Share on Google+” option will list the page title, page description and a linked image. You can choose to add a comment and share the post with your desired circles only.

Preview – Share on Google+

This is really a good move by Google and certainly a boon for webmasters and bloggers as the readers can now share their work on Google+ and it will act as a valuable new source of traffic and exposure.

Adding +1 Share button to Blog or Site – There is no specialised share button, it’s the same old button, just the script is changed at backend. If you already have a +1 button added to your site, then you don’t need to do anything. However, you can consider adding Snippets to your site if +1 button is not able to attain them properly.

+Snippets
The +1 button opens up your site to a valuable new source of traffic with sharing on Google+. +Snippets let you put your best face forward by customizing exactly what appears when your content is shared.

Note: Both sharing from +1 and inline annotations are rolling out fully over the next few days. To test these improvements right now, join our Platform Preview group.

Try clicking on the +1 button below and see if you can Share this post.
