Google’s new SideWiki

SideWiki Download

There is anew player in the social media game today by the name of SideWiki. Some webmeisters feel this is an invasion of their of their webspace and interferes with their marketing message. Others, like myself are looking at the social media potential of this service which will surely be evolving over the coming months.

You can not deny that with Google backing it up, SideWiki IS the new social media. The real power of this is that the web-surfer himself is entirely in charge of this environment of SideWiki. It is simply the next step closer to the actual source of the subject.

Before today, you could comment on Facebook, twitter, social bookmarks and the like about any given topic and start a conversation or exchange about a company, webpage, person or what have you. Now with SideWiki, you can make a comment in a place very near to the source, within the comfort of your own home (well browser) so to speak. This SideBar, located on your browser acts like a web page resource on its own, but is affixed to your browser URL location so that if you choose to read it, will have pertinent comments based on the exact web page you are at.

All anybody will need is an email account with Google and the firefox or explorer browsers. This could easily be used for SideWiki marketing. Google rates these comments in a secret way, so that real comments are more valid and stay near the top. Since we are all just learning about this right now, I wanted to alert webmeisters to a somewhat precautionary step they can take to make sure their message is the one SideWiki users will be seeing at the top of the list.
