More cowbell!
I mean, more channels! Yes, Reframe It continues to integrate with more social networking services to give you more options for syndicating your comments and content. Plus we’re making it easier (and safer) to do so:
- We’ve added both Blogger and FriendFeed to our list of channels. You may have noticed those options in the sharing tab of the margin, but they have been disabled. Check again. Live and open for business.
- We’ve also added OAuth (”open authentication”). This means that you can use services like Twitter and Blogger without giving us your login credentials.
We have just released these features, so at the moment the configuration and instructions aren’t super user-friendly. (That will be changing soon.) To use these new features, log into reframeit.com and click your sharing tab. Channels with OAuth provide a link that takes you to the partner site (e.g. Blogger) and asks you to confirm that you want to connect your accounts, and then take you right back to Reframe It.
Blogger integration in particular might stump you because it asks for your blog ID. To find it, go to your blog and start to create a new post, then look up at the URL. The last part of the URL is a big number. That’s your blog ID; copy and paste it into the configuration panel.
