OnlyWire

General

I promised on the first anniversary of KirkMahoney.com that I would look at ways to make this website more useful to you.

One way is to make it easier for you to share what I write with friends and family.

The OnlyWire “BOOKMARK & SHARE” button that now appears on all pages uses a technology that supports this.

This complements the “ShareThis” button found on many pages and gives you a choice about which social-networking technology to use — ShareThis or OnlyWire.

The advantage of ShareThis is that you need not have a ShareThis account to submit content to a particular social-networking site such as Digg or Furl.

The advantage of OnlyWire is that you can simultaneously submit content to as many social-networking sites as you have registered with OnlyWire.

As explained at the OnlyWire website, the OnlyWire “BOOKMARK & SHARE” button lets you automatically and simultaneously submit Web content to all of your social bookmarking sites, including:

  • Ask;
  • Backflip;
  • Bibsonomy
  • Blinklist;
  • Blue Dot;
  • BookmarkSync;
  • Connotea;
  • del.icio.us;
  • de.lirio.us;
  • Diigo;
  • Facebook;
  • Furl;
  • Jumptags;
  • linkatopia;
  • Linkroll;
  • ma.gnolia;
  • Multiply;
  • My Web Yahoo!
  • Newsvine;
  • Simpy;
  • Spurl;
  • Technorati;
  • Twitter.

Even more instantaneously, the OnlyWire “BOOKMARK & SHARE” button lets you email notifications about what you are reading to friends and family.

And the OnlyWire “BOOKMARK & SHARE” button lets you save any page you see here as a private bookmark in your Google Bookmarks account while you simultaneously share the page with social-networking sites.

I hope that you find this change helpful. If you have other ideas for how to improve KirkMahoney.com, please let me know through my contact form!
