Get real-time content on your posts with Smoopr.
Monday, January 11th, 2010You may have noticed a nice little box below my posts (it only appears on each posts page, as opposed to the front page). this is provided by a new start-up called Smoopr, and provided you with a real-time streem (mostly from twitter I think) of what others are saying about what I write.
Due to its very early stage of development Smoopr users still need to manually copy and paste the code snippet into their blog or potentially any other online outlet. Herein lies a potential deal breaker for Smoopr. Add-ons and services where there is a need to install some widget within another web application should be as simple to implement as possible in order to reach a larger audience. It would therefore be smart to enable Smoopr to be used via various cross-browser add-ons and extensions as Zemanta already does.
