Are you banned from Digg? Are you an active person in sites like Digg, stumble ?
If you said yes, then you have a Happy news. As said in the title of this article, Yahoo Buzz! is now open to everyone. Previously it was a closed Beta.
Now without wasting much of your time..I will tell some of the points and you can hurry to grab the Buzz Button.
1. Its an Digg like site of Yahoo!.
2. Believed to be the most powerful (more than Digg — Tested).
3. As almost all net users have an YahooMail Id, many people can Vote for your story on Yahoo Buzz!, than on Digg, stumble etc.
4. Yahoo Buzz! site is looking clean and easier to use than any other Social Bookmarking site.
5. The featured article will be displayed on “Yahoo.com” and not just on “buzz.yahoo.com”.
6. Its now open for everyone.
Now Go Grab the Buzz button. And Buzz my stories also, if you find anything interesting in Technotip.org!
orelse here is a small work around for wordpress blogs…
<script type="text/javascript">
yahooBuzzArticleHeadline = "<?php the_title(); ?>";
yahooBuzzArticleSummary = "<?php the_excerpt() ?>";
yahooBuzzArticleType = "text";
yahooBuzzArticleId = window.location.href;
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://d.yimg.com/ds/badge2.js"
badgetype="text-votes">
</script>
This code will get the Title, URL, and the excerpt of your article automatically to the Yahoo Buzz site, instead of manually inserting all these details.
And change “text-votes” to “square” or “small-votes” or “medium-votes” or “large-votes” or “logo” or “text” or “small” or “medium” or “large” to change the button type.
If you are using Blogspot, then remove these yahooBuzzArticleHeadline = “< ?php the_title(); ?>“; yahooBuzzArticleSummary = “< ?php the_excerpt() ?>“; two lines, and use the code. I think it will work. I have not tested it on Blogspot, but still hope it works fine. If anyone of you have tried this, then please confirm us, by leaving a comment below this article.
