Sending Links to Customers Never Looked So Good
By Tina Schneider
Back to Tips & TricksThanks to some excellent feedback, we have a new release that includes several improvements to LiveBinders.
As you know, LiveBinders is like a 3-ring binder for the web – allowing you to capture a variety of web links into a tabbed format which we call LiveBinders. Instead of bookmarking links – you can add them directly into livebinders. Your LiveBinder icons can be embedded on your web pages or sent as links in email. It’s a great way to share multiple links for yourself or with other people.
Here are some of the highlights in this release:
Upload Your PDF files to LiveBinders
Many of our users have been creatinglivebinders for customer documentation. With our new upload feature you can upload your own PDFs and include them in a livebinder along with your website links.
Better Looking Binders
We’ve given the livebinders a more polished look. At the top now is the LiveBinder logo and the username/ login line. Underneath that is the contents of the binder including the name of the binder, the author’s name, date created, and the number of views for the binder. If you are the author of the binder, you will also be able to see the ‘edit menu’ button to the right which allows you to make changes to your binder’s contents and properties.
Bookmark While You Browse
Although many of you can still create a blank binder from scratch, new users will be asked to install in their browser the ‘LiveBinder It’ bookmark tool. This allows them to create binders while they browse. It is a quicker and easier way to create binders on the fly. You can find out more about the bookmark tool here: http://livebinders.com/create/bookmark?type=bookmark
LiveBinders was created to help people make their searches more useful. Before Livebinders there was no easy way to combine multiple links into a document format that you can easily access online. If you’ve found LiveBinders to be useful for you, let us know. We have more improvements on the way.
Thank you for using LiveBinders!
