Posts in ‘Fav 2.0’

You are now able to set websites visible to your public profile (example of demo user) and share it with your friends. Maybe they find something interesting you like and they can save it to their account too.

I plan to extend this to add profiles to friends and browse them so maybe you can find interesting websites from your network.

How useful do you find his feature and what else do you think it is needed ?

P.S. Don’t forget to share your profile with your friends.

Bestis Engage Iasi organized this weekend (21-22 november 2008) a local (Iasi) Dota Allstars Tournament.

Fav20 team ( BunnyFace, Bibismurf, Vstyle, H3iko and Bl4nka ) won #1 at this tournament. We completely annihilated every other team :).

I have reworked the interface of fav20 for the login and register box. Now it draws attention to the exact action needed, and also can be closed easily by clicking X or outside.

I will use all of next popup boxes the same way from now on.

For those interested, I use SqueezeBox Javascript plugin for MooTools.

Your feedback on how it looks and feels is greatly appreciated.

Iulius Mall Iasi prezinta firmele pe fav20.com la calculatoarele cu free internet access din incinta mall-ului.

The HTML attribute accesskey of the a tag allows you to access with your keywords various links on the website.

The problem is that each browser has it’s own version of using the accesskey:

• Opera (on windows and mac) - SHIFT + ESC + accesskey
• Other Mac browsers - CTRL + accesskey
• FireFox 2.x and 3.x - ALT + SHIFT + accesskey
• Internet Explorer (5.x,6.x,7.x) - ALT + accesskey then ENTER

For fav 2.0 I added for the first 9 sites accesskey from 1 - 9. You can sort the sites as you wish to drag & drop the first 9.

It has proven that visual bookmarking and startup homepage can be really useful and save you a lot of time.

Firefox has FastDial, Opera has Speed Dial, but Internet Explorer doesn’t have any plugin for visual bookmarking. The biggest advantages fav20 has to this plugins are:

• no installation required (not even user registration)
• can access your favorites anywhere you go (just add sites to your account)

I recommend trying fav20 as your homepage and see if you get used to it.

To set your HomePage in Internet Explorer: TOOLS->INTERNET OPTIONS-> http://www.fav20.com on the homepage field. (you may need to press ALT in IE7 to show up the TOOLS menu).

Romania Libera face un review pentru fav20 si il catalogheaza ca site-ul saptamanii.

Site-ul www.fav20.com vrea sa ii ajute pe acestia si ofera un sistem de catalogare a site-urilor favorite - sau care merita sa fie revizitate – bazate pe “thumnails”. 

Este a doua aparitie in Romania Libera, prima fiind precizata intr-un review de la webstock cu titlul Memo-uri electronice.

Romania Libera a facut un review la ce s-a intamplat la Webstock, scriind si despre fav20.

Memo-uri electronice
Pe langa adresele de web vizitate zilnic exista in lumea online milioane de alte site-uri pe care le accesam intamplator, ne plac, ne inspira, insa uitam cum sa ajungem inapoi la ele. www.fav20.ro este un instrument care permite utilizatorului sa isi faca o baza cu site-urile vizitate pentru a le putea accesa usor si a le avea oriunde, folosind site-ul ca homepage al browserului. Avantajul principal al utilizarii acestui instrument este faptul ca nu mai trebuie sa memoram site-urile cu care lucram. 
Adresele dorite vor fi regasite pe orice calculator, indiferent de browser-ul folosit. Astfel, chiar daca Fav 2.0 nu necesita un cont pentru a-si face treaba (utilizatorului fiindu-i permis sa il testeze mai mult timp fara a-si crea un cont), pentru siguranta si pentru a avea site-urile preferate pe orice calculator, isi poate face unul si sa transfere adresele salvate deja in cont.

You can now see the sites marked for opening multiple sites in one click

Open marked is available only for registered users on fav 2.0.

Promoting through social bookmarking sites is FREE (of money) but can take up some time. I have used some social bookmark widget before on fav20, people voted, I got to 52 saves on del.icio.us, and some talk on stumble, but not too many visitors from those sites.

I added today addtoany widget on the footer so you can easily save and share fav20. Happy saving.
