BlastGroups Launches Streams, Blurbs, and Bookmark Enhancements
Streams
It started when we wanted to share things not only within our group and between our friends, but with the rest of the world as well. And so BlastGroups Streams were born.
A Stream is Visual Blog all about you and your interests. Your stream is located at blastgroups.com/stream/yourname. Think of a Stream as a visual blog that writes itself; they are created on the fly as you bookmark and share websites, embed videos, add photos, and more. Learn more by checking out a Sample Stream.
Blurbs
In order to make Streams a true reflection of you, we’re also launching the ability to write a “Blurb” or a small posting about anything. It can be about you, what you’re up to, or just a general thought or observation. Together with these small updates, Streams offer a unique way to discover and discuss what your friends and “groupmates” are doing and sharing.
Blast Bookmark Enhancements
In addition to Streams and Blurbs, we’ve made lots of improvements to the Blast Bookmark, the online bookmark that gives web publishers the ability to let readers share their content with their groups and friends on BlastGroups.
Publishers and bloggers will notice new, easy-to-use directions and code to automatically add the Blast Bookmark to their website, or to WordPress or Blogger. If you’re a publisher, go ahead, try it out and add the Blast Bookmark to your site or blog.
Sharing with groups, friends, or everyone
The launch of Streams and improvements to the Blast Bookmark makes BlastGroups the ultimate way to bookmark and share the web, making it simple and easy to share things with groups, friends, everyone, or all of the above! Learn more about how to share with BlastGroups.
