Now two of the most popular and powerful tool of mass media interaction, personal literary and fun place meet head on and then supplement each other.
They bring together two communities together and increase the value addition being done to the websphere.
If WEB 2.0 is making change the way content is used to shared then it is also bring together the various content creation mechanism together so the relevant and the quality content is available at your fingers tips.
The various social media websites, bookmarking websites and being increasingly being integrated for better advantage of both the websites. The flow traffic and and information is two and no one is complaining about it.
Now this post is for all those out there who really like to blog and share the best things that have to and are ever willing for them in any one of the mediums but they never tried to integrate the both. This post is also for those bloggers who like their accounts and never play around with any… mind my words any thing related to code. They think that wordpress and blogger have made things enough simple and they do not want any type of complications.
I have been one of those bloggers who ignored the power of WEB 2.0 tools, applications for long and then came back and enjoyed the things that are being offered by different websites.
What you should integrate in your blog?
1) Make way for RSS feeds in the front and very visible space of the webpage. (Keep it above the fold)
2) A little effort and you will make the RSS feeds to be subscribed by your readers as emails as well.
3) Add those small ready made tools so that your blog can be shared, saved and sent as email.
4) Twitter – Integrate your blog with your twitter and let the whole world know that you are blogging
5) You can directly add the reddit widget in your blog.
6) Pay attention to digg, keep them updated what all you are doing.
7) Give an option to the readers to convert the same into pdfs and print it, if possible.
Integrate flickr (if possible/applicable) into your blog. Images are searched in lots and if you use your own images (not borrowed from other place) then you will see a lot of people coming in just because you have those wonderful images within your post.
