New Features

With our integration of Meebo with our website, there has come a lot a great features and interactions that people can make. When you are on our website, you will see a small bar at the bottom of every page. That is our new Meebo Bar that we have incorporated. By using that bar, our readers and vistors can interact and share our website and articles socially. As you see, the first button on the left is called "Share Page". What this does is pull up a faded screen that will allow you to share that current page either on Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, and even email it. After the "Share Page" button, you will see four more buttons, "Facebook Fan Page", "Twitter", "Stumble It!", and "Digg This". Here is what each button allows you to do.

Facebook Fan Page

When you click on this button, you will be able to tap into our Facebook Fan Page feed. It will post all our current happening on Facebook. Become a Fan if your are not already. You could be missing out!

Twitter

Like the Facebook button, this button once clicked, will allow our visitors to view our Twitter feed. Follow us on Twitter. Your missing out if your not.

Stumble It and Digg This

These are pretty self-explanatory. These buttons will allow you to either Stumble or Digg the current page or article you on reading.

Now onto the right-hand side of the bar

The right-hand side will allow you to chat with your friends right from our website. How cool is that?? You can even share the pages/articles you are reading to the friends you're chatting with!

Your Opinon

We want to know what your thoughts are about this new feature we have incorporated. With the ever increasing presence of Social Media, there is always something "new" coming out. With our owner being a very social media connect person, be looking for new, enhanced features coming to The Everyday Web Expert. Enjoy!

Featured Site - Yondr.com

Media_httpwwwkyleredd_ehbfq
This week's Featured Site is still a newbie. It was just launched on January 26th and has a lot of potential. I usually wait for new sites like this to be around awhile and mature before I consider them for the Featured Site spot. I just had to make an exception for this one. This site is great for the "adventurer" in all of us. Yondr let's us share and connect to people from around world. Considering going to a place for vacation? Check who has been there and what they say about it! Maybe it is cycling on the rolling hills in the quiet countryside of France? ... or eating local spicy cuisine from street vendors in the alleys of Bangkok? ... or an urban ‘hike’ through the concrete jungle and museums of New York City? ... or camping overnight on the grassy plains after a sunset wildlife safari in Africa? ... or tasting fresh local ingredients as part of a culinary tour in Tuscany, Italy? ... or learning about local heritage, not from a museum but from being out there in person with Inupiat Eskimos in Alaska? Perhaps these are things you have already done. Maybe you seek inspiration from where others have gone and what they have experienced. Or wish to share the sights and sounds of your last trip… The excitement of planning and the emotional rollercoaster you went through during the trip. Your eagerness to share your experiences with friends and family on your return. The responses you got to your travel tales. And when you were back to your daily routine, how the memories of being out there would haunt you all over again. Yet, to recreate the same magic seemed a daunting task, until now. Yondr is not just about seeing new places, but seeing the same old places with new eyes. Yondr goes beyond Places. It’s about Experiences. About People. About You. And your connections with the world around you. Besides joining dots on the map, Yondr is the web that links you to your travel environment. The guide on your safari, the most critical asset during your holiday, ceases to be of importance once you get back to your daily grind. The interesting traveler you met whose e-mail address you jotted on a scrap of paper that was laundered with your dirty clothes, left you wishing you had kept in touch? Or that man on a mission, fighting for a cause, who you wanted to help once you got back? Today’s travelers seek out new and authentic experiences as they immerse themselves in local cultures, nature and history. Not content sitting by the poolside; these global travelers want real experiences and locally inspired activities ranging from eco-adventure to heritage to culinary travel. Yondr brings all this to life through multimedia publishing technologies, web widgets and blogging. The web and mobile tools are all tailored for today’s travelers to discover, publish and share their travel experiences.

Revamping Our Corporate Identity

After months of thinking and researching, our owner, Kyle Reddoch, has decided to revamp our corporate identity. (This will be fun for our Web Department!) This will include the following changes:
  • Company Colors
  • Logo Design
  • Redesign of both website and company blog (to accommodate the above changes)
  • Redesign of Company Newsletter.
Our current website will still be up and functional while our company is undergoing this revamping. Our company blog on the other hand will be in maintenance mode starting today at 4:30pm CST. We expect this downtime to be for the weekend only. If it will be longer, you (our trusted readers) will be notified. We have been very busy for the past few months making these changes and are very happy and excited to actually make these public. We are sure you will love the "NEW" Everyday Web Expert brand and website/blog. Once everything is up and running, if you have any questions pertaining to the new look or functionality, please feel free to email our webmaster at webmaster@kylereddoch.com.
