Not bad, looks like a clean toolbar
Forgive me, but I just find it kind of weird that Extendy doesn’t have its own Extendy toolbar on their own site.
Maybe cause it will be confusing since that is considered a sales page. Maybe they should have a demo page. That’ll be better
That’s a great shirt!
Aww. Cute giraffe with those big eyes.
Someone did a really nice job branding the site. Great logo, and the site looks great.
I love the fact that you can choose your themes and continue to make customizations. Thanks for the heads up, Jeremy! (Cool shirt, too, by the way.)
Methinks Extendy should “extendy” their services to making cute shirt designs for kids.
Actually, judging by the logo, these guys look like they’re working with a really talented graphic designer.
Haha good one, Wandering Mommy! LOL
i wonder if that will catch on?
It might, especially once they open up that API to developers.
Let’s hope someone comes up with a Google Analytics integration for Extendy. I’ll buy in to that.
And a White Label option for selling it to “more serious” clients.
According to the official rep, there are 5 types of plugins that can be built:
1. Search (i.e. Lijit; Google Co-Op)
2. Menu (i.e. share menu, which could then launch an iframe for twitter, etc.)
3. Button
4. Iframe (via menu or button) [i.e. bit.ly]
5. Hidden (i.e. Google Analytics; SmartLinks)
They have a demo feature you can try out on Extendy.
Just tried it for my blog. Not sure what happened. Am I missing something?
Go check out the bottom of your page/screen. See the toolbar? It’s for social sharing. No need to leave the page, no need for popup windows or tabs.
Thanks, man! I wasn’t sure where to look, too.
Just demoed Extendy on my site. Looks good, and it doesn’t intrude on the visuals.
Awww…. I love the giraffe!
Sweet. Actually if you look at their About Us button, their founders have these cute giraffe-related titles, too.
Yeah, haha. I noticed that too. “Chief giraffe” and “grunt giraffe”.
Free Shirt Friday means the weekend is here. WOOHOOOOOO!!!
Um, it’s Saturday my time. What am I doing in front of the computer? LOL
Nice site. Not sure I’d use it, but the interface is clean.
Actually it’s worth your while. If you’re blogging and you just published a new post, it’s going to be easy to update, say, your Facebook wall and Twitter. And that’s without having to install a plugin.
It’s not just Facebook and Twitter, though. It also works for YouTube, MySpace, Digg, Ning, Meebo, Socialthing, Google Friend Connect, etc. I think it’s pretty useful, so I don’t understand why not a lot of people are using it.
I would keep that one!
Happy Hour and Free Shirt Friday. Two reasons to look forward to the weekend.
That giraffe is awfully glassy eyed. What’s up giraffe?
The glassy eyes add to the cuteness factor. And at least it’s cheerful-looking.
So wait. To get featured in these weekly posts, all I have to do is to send Jeremy a free shirt? Sounds like a great x-deal to me.
Yup. If you click on the link at the end of the post, you’ll see all the details and the address where you can send the shirt to.
I agree. It’s a fun way to get your brand out there.
Great idea, Jeremy. It’s the cheapest, most helpful way to get awesome free shirts. I’m actually jealous.
The about page is pretty funny.
I know, right? I wanna be called Grunt Giraffe myself.
That made me look. Yeah, hilarious stuff, but there’s not much content on their site, though.
Not sure about the toolbar, but I love the giraffe shirt.
Sweet stuff. I like the fact that I’m able to select my own plugins. Thanks, Shoe!
Very Very great shirt! I love the giraffe
Cool giraffe! Do they sell t-shirt online?
hmmm..maybe they should put a text below the logo so people know what it is when you’re wearing them.
It’s simpler if you use a toolbar to integrate whatever social networking links, feeds, and search bar you have on your website.
Whoever created that logo kicks butt! But I agree, I would add some text to the logo so people know what it is.
nice shirt…..cool
Outstanding – I ought to certainly pronounce, impressed with your site. I had no difficulty navigating by indicates all the tabs also as linked info ended up being genuinely simple to accomplish to accessibility. I lately discovered what I hoped for ahead of you understand it whatsoever.
