The BlogCatalog Team is proud to preset the all new Bloggers Unite!
If you have been wondering why I have been neglecting this blog for so long, I assure it’s not because of inactivity. The BlogCatalog Team has been hard at work getting Bloggers Unite ready for it’s beta launch. With the launch less than a week away you are going to want to make sure you sign up to be notified at http://www.bloggersunite.org/. We are really proud of this new site and can’t wait to unleash it upon the world and start accomplishing good!
So stay tuned for that and many other new BlogCatalog updates that are really going to change the way you use BlogCatalog.
When we first rolled out our social streaming features oh so long ago, we gave users the ability to share and comment on their friends activities. We removed the feature due to performance reasons a few months after we launched, however, as of today we have re-introduced the feature to our activity feeds.
You should now see little stars next to certain activity items from your friends and in the social search, clicking these stars will allow you to post that item to your own activity feed as well as allow to comment on that item. It’s a great way to share interesting links, videos, blog posts and more.
What are you waiting for? go find something to share!
Last week we launched a new search widget for bloggers that allows visitors to search a blog’s content as well as the authors social activity without leaving the blog. You can check out the widget at: http://www.blogcatalog.com/widgets. This is great for any platforms such as tumblr and blogspot where search is sometimes lacking.
Check out the widget in action and read a review over at DedeAndro.
It’s always interesting to see who users choose to be their top friends. However, when i came across Erik van Erne’s top friends i was even more intrigued as i now had 10 eyeballs staring right at me.
Anyone have any insight as to why a blogger’s eye is one of the most common avatars on BC?
