As blogging evolves, one natural trend that is emerging strongly is making your blog more social. It becomes less of something to simply read, and more of a community destination in which to interact.
How does one make a blog a happening place? How does one involve readers in expressing themselves? How to provide interaction beyond “leave a comment”?
Obviously, you need to provide a space on your blog for your readers to do things together. You want to enable your users to poll, debate, ask questions, leave useful links and perform group search. The idea is to bring community features to life on your blog and stimulate social interaction.
One solution is to add widgets. For example you can add a poll through Poll Daddy. Or add a microblog through Twitter. Or simply throw in a Google gadget – but you want to be sure the gadget goes beyond just providing information. You want social interaction, not just content syndication.
You can use all these disparate platforms or simply use TeemingPod. TeemingPod is a platform that helps you embed powerful social interactions right inside a web page.
TeemingPod not only helps in adding web2.0 sizzle to a blog but also helps the blogger to interact with the readers in various forms like debate, share links, questions and answers, poll etc. It also helps blog readers to collaborate with each other, apart from the blogger, who share the same interest.
