Even more BlinkList enhancements!
Mike
enhancements for BlinkList!
1) We finally added a long requested feature to the bookmarklet tool.
Today we added:
a. Most popular tags! So, when you are blinking sites you can now see
that the most popular tags are that other people have been using.
b. Your tags! You can now see a list of your tags to quickly add them
In a way, this makes blinking sites even faster. I personally am not a
fan of seeing my tags because I have several thousand so there is just
way too much info there. However, we allow you to close this list of
tags and when you blink sites again, we remember so that this does not
clutter up your space if you don't want this info.
In fact, I have to admit that we resisted for a while to roll this out
since we love using LOTS of tags. However, since this site is for YOU,
the community, and since you asked for it many times we have just added
it.
c. We rolled back the changes to the tag field. Several of you really
liked the ability to quickly blink something by just pressing enter.
Good point! So, now you can do that again.
2) We further improved the Shoutbox!
You can now very quickly and easily shoutback to another user. Before
you had to first visit their page and then find the shoutbox and leave
a comment. Not fun and that took way too long. So, you can now click
on shoutback and voila! You leave a reply on your page (so others can
follow the conversation) as well as on the person that left you a
comment so that they know you replied.
Hope you like it and please do let us know your thoughts so that we can
make further adjustments and tweaks!

Having the bookmarklet populated with popular and my tags is
absolutely... functional! Thanks to all the BlinkListers.

Thanks for the changing it back. It's nice to see that you are
responsive to user suggestions.

Seeing the most popular tags is just awesome! But adding my tags does
seem to clutter it up. I personally do not need it because I find it
fastest to add my tags by typing "wordp" for example and then hitting
:"wordpress" when it shows up. I am a big fan of google suggest beta
too! It is good to have the arrow to close that list but is that on a
per use basis (every time you bookmark something am I going to need to
close it)? I guess it doesn't really matter since blinking sites only
takes a few seconds...lol.
BlinkList is progressing so fast! I am really happy to be a part of it.
I am having a hard time getting friends and family to join. Most of
them have no idea what social bookmarking is and why it is useful. I do
promote BlinkList a lot and have gotten a few people curious enough to
join and it is interesting to see what they "blink". I think I saw a
letter template on the About BlinkList page that I may use.
Keep up the Great Work!

Nevermind. I just realized that wasn't the case. And the my tags list
stays closed if that is what I have chosen. *sighs with relief* lol.

This is great stuff! Really enjoying using BlinkList and it just
keeps getting more user friendly to boot.

blink a site nobody's blinked before, ie:
> Popular tags for this link
Nobody has Blinked this site before. Be the first!
is maybe unnecessary though, and that it should be removed. Obviously
show it when there are tags there, but otherwise save some real-estate
and bring the 'Your tags' section up a couple of lines.
