So what is a social media marketing platform? From the private webinar we were invited to, it looks like a place to network with your contacts and advertise your content. Moneza is still in closed beta registration. Based on the image on their homepage, Moneza will be gathering all the major social networks to be used on their site.

“What is RT?” is a common question asked by friends and family who have not seen the social media light. RT = retweet. Retweet = reposting a tweet (Twitter message) you found on Twitter.
Recently, Twitter released a new beta feature for retweeting from their web interface. Initially, retweeting had to be done manually. Adding the “RT” then copying the username (not forgetting the @ symbol) and then copying the tweet. Soon after, third party applications like CoTweet and HootSuite integrated the retweet feature into their platforms.
Interestingly, one of our lesser known Twitter accounts (@sumikael) was selected for the beta feature.
Here are the screenshots of the retweet feature.

To celebrate the 2nd anniversary of IslamCrunch, the design team at MQube developed a new look for our site. Welcome to IslamCrunch 3.0. Alhamdulillah.
We have added some jQuery to the site to streamline content and minimize scrolling for the user experience. Micro-blogging on Twitter has been an interesting adventure for us and wanted our readers who are not familiar with Twitter to have a better exposure to our micro posts. The Twitter widget is a customized design that employs their json code (this json format has a special appeal for me, any guesses why?) Besides Twitter, we have highlighted other social networks that we are active on.
We also streamlined the design from a 3 column layout to a 2 column layout. Please add your comments below, your feedback is important to us.
