One of the fun things about our FeedFlare service is its ability to reflect dynamic information from some of the most active social media sites on the Web. Want to display how many "Diggs" or related posts at Sphere your post has generated? Check. Want to display the number of Scapes on your posts? Easy. How about showing a "Monkey Alert" if your post contains the word "monkey"? Silly... yet somehow possible. (We've always suspected monkeys to be key drivers of the social media revolution.)
Given all the recent fuss about YOU, it's timely for us to announce the latest addition to our extensive line of feed accoutrement: A dynamic FeedFlare named "Save to del.icio.us". This new FeedFlare unit will reflect the number of saves and the top three tags for each item in your post. It looks something like this:
We'll let our friends at del.icio.us tell you more about the latest capabilities they're launching today. Also, for the curious, Matt McAlister demonstrates some more interesting things in this video posted on the Yahoo! Developer Network blog.
Where can I find this savory new FeedFlare?
Log into your FeedBurner account, select your feed, click the "Optimize" tab and look for FeedFlare in the menu on the left. Check the box called, "Save to del.icio.us" for your feed and/or site. Voila! You're now plugged into many of services that make it easy for you to share your content with others this holiday season and beyond.
