We have just added auto embed for Pinterest boards and Vimeo videos. Unfortunately Pinterest profiles will still need to be embedded with the embed code.

More Automatic Embed of Content – TED and Prezi
Now you can use “LiveBinder it” or copy/paste the link to add both TED and Prezi presentations. We will automatically insert the embed code for you. We are still working on others, but feel free to send us your request. We want to make binder building as easy as possible.
Automatic Embed of Google Drive Docs
Google recently changed things on Drive so that .jpgs, .pdfs, live presentations, and videos require embed codes to sit in a binder.

Table of Contents Update
We recently introduced a table of contents feature for our subscribers, but we’ve decided to make it available in all binders.

We hope the reorganization and simplification will make things easier to find and eliminate unnecessary clicks. Here are screenshots of the Add Content Menu and Binder Settings Menu. Each button will open up a sub menu with more […]
Tabs on the Right
You will see lots of great binders with tabs on the side, and this was a highly requested feature that we implemented a while ago. But we still got requests for tabs on the right instead of on the left, because many have felt that the right was a more natural place for them to be […]
