I started a thread a couple days ago about a web tool I was working on. My idea is a tool that generates a block of social bookmark links for your blog or web page that makes it easy for visitors to socially bookmark your page. If you have several blogs on a page, you can add this block of graphical links to each blog. Or you can add it to a page that you think visitors might want to socially bookmark. Social bookmarking is getting much more popular and can drive tons of traffic to a website, so it makes sense to put this kind of block on your page. Please leave comments on this thread as to what you think of it, and if you think it is good enough to blog about, please do. You can find it here: http://directory.proud-collector.com/social_bookmark_tool.aspx
I've look at some of the others out there, but I think this is the only one that produces 100% HTML code only. It doesn't require javascript or anything else, just pure HTML. Also, if you have multiple blogs on one page, you can create a different social bookmark block for each one on the same page. I think the social bookmark block that it generates also looks good with icons for each social bookmarking site.
When I input my url (http://jmstreet.info) it comes up with an error saying there should be two periods. The url is perfectly valid with just the one period.
I know that I need to add www. to get the too to work. My point was that the tool was wrong for requiring www. to be present.
No problem. It is actually quite a nice little tool. I especially like the icons, far better than the current ones I'm using on my blog. If I wasn't planning on moving away from the icons I'd be tempted to switch.
PROS: AJAX is the 'in' thing at the moment - useful as a marketing tool. Should reduce bandwidth. CONS: Extra work. Wouldn't improve the user experience greatly in this instance.
