A Guided Tour of InJersey

August 13, 2009 in Tutorial by Ted Mann

Granted, this is a little overdue. We launched InJersey a month and a half ago now, but we’re only just getting the hang of our screencasting software (ScreenFlow, for Mac) just now. At any rate, better late than never. Here’s a quick video tour of the InJersey site.

Be on the lookout for more instructional videos in the weeks to come. To help educate contributors, we’re looking to create demo videos to walk you through exactly how to add a calendar event or post a video.

And please, if there are any tutorial videos you’d like us to create, please email us with suggestions.

This little birdy told me about InJersey’s new “ReTweet” button

August 4, 2009 in Site News by Ted Mann

To help make InJersey even more Twitter-friendly, we’ve added a retweet button to the bottom of every post on our town blogs.

This button taps into a service provided by Tweetmeme, which also does a count of how many times a given post has been tweeted.

It’s far from exact, and there’s definitely a lag time, but it adds another tool to help facilitate community conversation. If nothing else, we hope it makes the process of tweeting posts a little simpler.

Happy Tweeting!
