Snap Live

After the overwhelming response to our last entry about Snap, we’ve decided to make it available for everyone.

It should also now work for comments (which is really cool) and your blogroll.

It’s now available for everyone, of course if you don’t want it on your blog you can uncheck the box in Presentation > Extras to deactivate it.

    Huzzah!

    Thanks, Matt! Enabling it for comments is VITAL and appreciated!

    Adding it to the Blogroll is also super-killer!

    Will Snap! remain free or become a paid feature?

    Thank you Matt… i love this feature… its wonderful… but not half as wonderful as wordpress is… you guys are the greatest..!!!… my hope is others will be inspired by my blog and find their way to enjoy their own personal wordpress doings… i now have three lay outs.. and each one of them is different… i have not completely finished the book style yet.. but it is getting close… i get lots of complitments on my wordpress design layouts….. of course i take all the credit… bit smile..

    ohhh… yes.. i guess i have more than one hope… another one of my hopes is that somehow… snap will get a code so i can add it to the intent of blog notification… this the little doll photo as well as the words i leave when i post someones photo to my blog… i like to let them know i have used their work… i think this would be a wonderful feature… but i guess it would have to be worked out with flickr… oh well.. so it goes..

    Matt.. again.. i want to thank you and all the rest on your team.. for the great service you offer… tiandra…

    Awesome. I just came back to my blog and found Snap working. My blog has only been on WordPress for a couple of days. So far I’m impressed with the ease of use, the features and your business model. Well done to all concerned.

    LOVE this feature! For those who might not be seeing it, which browser are you using? I was editing a post using Firefox and saw SNAP, then Firefox went all wonky on me for a bit, so I had to open up my WordPress blog with Internet Explorer (ick). Didn’t see SNAP on IE and still don’t. Only see it when using Firefox, which thankfully is back to normal. Have only been using Firefox for a few days and I’d be LOST without it!

    Would have preferred the default was unchecked. Then we could test it out first.

    Overall, I think it will be difficult for many readers, making information less accessible or the computer more confusing.

    At the very least, extras or others which change the reader or blogee experience should be carefully thought out (if communication is the goal)
