The Linc Online gets social

Continuing the Linc Online’s advance to 2.0, today we present social bookmarking and RSS feed customisation.

Following a few interesting articles from Roger Black and Todd Zeigler’s article (and here) on improving newspaper websites, The Linc Online now ticks most of the applicable boxes of a modern newspaper’s website. So there it is, just a quick recap:

Tags - check

Full RSS feeds - check

Social bookmarking options - NEW: check (including Twitter)

No registration required - check

Links to blogs - check

Mobile version - check (just visit the usual address from your mobile)

Modern graphic design - check

Comments for every story - check

Improved search features - check

Besides the social bookmarking bar plugin by Joost, RSS feed header and footer customisation is on the way, for those who read The Linc via their newsreaders. Now I have to implement these functions for this blog also.
