Smartphone Wars, Google Friend Connect, Gwave, Dashboard, Opting out of Google, and more!

iPhone step aside!  My pocket is reserved for my Verizon Droid, coming in tomorrow via FedEx.  Today we talk about smart phones, how we use them to keep our businesses running remotely, a major Google Friend Connect update, Google’s “social experiment,” Gwave, and Google Dashboard.

Links From Today’s Show…

• Twitter is releasing its retweet tool. This is a VERY good thing as it helps you see who is retweeting you and who you (should be) following up with for lead gen purposes. Make sense? Screenshot
• Twitter Lists: People are starting to post links to Lists one should follow http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/best_twitter_lists.php (Will this start a trend where Twitterers ask other Twitterers to add me to your list the same way Bloggers asked other bloggers to add me to your blogroll?) I also think this is good for lead gen as well. If someone adds you to a list, then they really, really have an interest in you.
