iFeedReaders is Moving Hosts

Tuesday, December 26th, 2006

Not that the users should notice, but in the upcoming days iFeedReaders.com is moving to Dreamhost hosting. If you get any errors that’d be why. I’m going to try and make it as smooth as possible, but you never know. ;)

Goodby Flogz

FlogzFlogz is the latest button to get removed as they have moved away from the social bookmark scene.  Looking at my forms, there may be a few others to clean out.

iFeedReaders Bookmarklets Now Available

Thursday, October 26th, 2006

Two bookmarklets are now available to quickly access the iFeedreaders bookmark, or subscribe page.

Install the ‘Bookmark This’ bookmarklet and whenever you come across a webpage that you’d like to save, just hit the ‘Bookmark This’ bookmarklet and you’ll be transported, along with the page information, to the iFeedReaders bookmark page with all the pre-populated social bookmark buttons.

Install the ‘Feed This’ bookmarklet and whenever you come across a raw feed, just hit the ‘Feed This’ bookmarklet and you’ll be transported, along with the feed information, to the iFeedReaders subscribe page with all the feed subscription buttons pre-populated.

There are a few issues with the ‘Feed This’ bookmarklet as IE7 doesn’t like it at all and Safari (with RSS capabilities) doesn’t send across quite the right URL. However, it does work great in Firefox. :)

Check out the iFeedReaders bookmarklet page.

Feedback & suggestions are always welcome.

New Service Submission Form

Wednesday, October 25th, 2006

Adding a feed reader or social bookmarking service just got easier; on me. :)

With the help of WuFoo, I’ve created a form to collect all the information and store it in a database so I don’t loose requests in my inbox.

If you have a service you’d like us to add, just fill out the Add This Service form and I’ll get to it when I can.

Nine New Bookmark Services Added

Monday, October 23rd, 2006

The list of social bookmark services continues to grow. Today we added nine new services to the social bookmark page. These services include:

StumbleUpon

Yardbarker (Sports)

Wykop (Polish)

PopCurrent

Mister Wong (German)

Favorri (Turkish)

Hatena (Japanese)

Diigo

Britney (Music)

Those that are already using the iFeedReaders bookmark button will immediately get to take advantage of these new buttons. They will be making their way to other tools as I get time.

My-Tuts Button Removed

Wednesday, October 18th, 2006

I just found out that My-Tuts has closed so the button has been removed.

It’s sad to see the sites go, especially ones that seemed unique.

Blog Specific Subscribe & Bookmark Buttons Added

Tuesday, October 17th, 2006

iFeedReaders as just updated the single subscribe and bookmark buttons to include code for Blogger, Wordpress and Movable Type. With the blog specific code, the buttons can be added to your templates and the code auto generated.

This is a really good thing for the social bookmark button as it can be included in the post loop and the bookmark code will be automatically generated for each post. For an example, look at the bookmark buttons below all the posts on the iFeedReaders news site.

If anyone comes across any bugs or has any questions, let me know.

Thanks

Feedshow, Fwicki, Include, Newgie and Newshutch Added

Monday, October 9th, 2006

iFeedReaders has added 5 new buttons to the subscribe page today. Those include Feedshow, Fwicki, Include, Newgie and Newshutch.


These options are automatically available for any outstanding iFeedReaders subscribe buttons.

If you haven’t created one for your site, isn’t it about time?

Rojo Buttons Fixed

Friday, September 29th, 2006

About two weeks ago or so, Rojo updated their website and removed the Rojo feed button that we’ve been using. It was unfortunate as a lot of bloggers already had it on their site. Well I’m happy to let you know that I contacted Rojo and they’ve re-uploaded the button and it works again. :)
