Weekend read: My weekly share on Twitter

Did you make hay this week? I hope the sun was shining on your efforts...and that you're ready for the weekend. This week, there was plenty of hay-making on Twitter, where I'm @dontgetcaught. Here's the best of the finds, reads and resources I shared there in the past week:

• Should you put your press release on Twitter or Facebook? Both work, but Twitter yields 30 percent more page views, this study says.
• Didn't think you could use Google StreetView? Now you can make virtual tours with it. Here's how.
• Google+ got brand pages this week, and here's a roundup of 16 universities who took the page plunge.  Just don't look for contests or promotions on Google+ pages--they're not allowed.
• Data blogs, part deux: 10,000 Words has part 2 of its list of data journalism blogs you should bookmark.
• This can only be good: The South Florida Sun-Sentinel has moved its a.m. editorial board meeting to Twitter. Way to stay transparent, and relevant.
• You are the 20 percent. Aren't you? New research shows that 80 percent of smartphone users multitask on the devices while watching teevee.
• Your Friday timewaster: This anagram generator can make lists of thousands of anagrams from any word or phrase you enter--try your name, then go from there.
• On the move: Social web and content guru Georgy Cohen is leaving Tufts University to start Crosstown Digital Communications. Wish her luck!

What a week! Thanks for taking the time to read the blog. Don't forget: If there's an issue you think I should be covering, please share it with me at info[at]dontgetcaught[dot]biz. My best tips come from readers...
