Tag! You’re It!

   

Announcing the new Tagometer from del.icio.us

 

Those clever mash-up meisters over at del.icio.us—the social bookmarking website where the world collects its favorites—have been at it again. This time they’ve come up with a widget called the Tagometer that you can use to enhance your site, help drive relevant traffic and hook up with others of like interests. And, it’s free.

 

Like the static del.icio.us badge, the new widget includes a button inviting readers to bookmark your page on del.icio.us. The Tagometer takes it a step further, however, offering an up-to-date ticker of those who’ve already bookmarked the page, plus a list of the top tags.

 

Your users can click on the ticker to see more detail: who bookmarked your page, when they did it, and how they tagged it.

 

For more info, check out the del.icio.us blog.
