New weblogger "ping" interface
A2B recently added a new "ping" feature to allow the webloggers amongst you to notify us automatically when you make a new entry in your blog. Most weblog services allow you to use this feature - in order to make it work with A2B you also have to have an "ICBM" or "Geo.Position" meta tag in the HTML code of your blog which tells us the geographical position associated with your blog. Many weblogging services now have this feature - if yours doesn't, find out why! The URL of the ping interface is:
http://www.a2b.cc/setloc/bp.a2b

Pingomatic.com adds A2B to its list of ping sites
The people over at Pingomatic.com recently added A2B as a "Specialized Service". Pingomatic is a weblog ping aggregation service - set your blogging service to ping Pingomatic the pingomatic interface at http://rpc.pingomatic.com and it will take care of the hassle of pinging all the other services for you. Pingomatic serves hundreds of thousands of weblog pings per day and can help you increase your blog's readership - check them out at http://www.pingomatic.com

A2B RSS feed service now available
It is now possible to subscribe to A2B RSS feeds showing the 10 most recently added or updated A2B-listed sites within XX kilometres/miles of your website.
In order to take advantage of this feature, use an A2B search on the A2B website at http://www.a2b.cc to find your URL, then click on the "(i)" just below the search result. Next, select the "generate RSS feed for sites near this URL" option, fill in the number of kilometres/miles you wish the feed to cover, and click "go". An RSS feed URL will be generated, and you click the "RSS" button or cut-and-paste the URL into your blogging service to add the feed. Please don't update the feed more than once every hour or so if you're using an RSS newsreader.
The following is an example RSS URL for "most recently added/updated sites within 25 miles of the Golden Gate Bridge website":
http://www.a2b.cc/rss/rssdatelink.a2b?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.goldengatebridge.org&dist=25&distype=mi
As usual, please give feedback and comments via the A2B user forum at http://forum.a2b.cc

Generate an A2B "What's Nearby?" link button for your site
You can now generate an A2B "What's Nearby?" button or link for your site, along with the link code to paste into your own website's HTML. When visitors to your site click on the button, they will be taken to an A2B search page showing the websites which are physically nearest to yours, along with the distance and direction to each neighbouring website.
Two image-based buttons are available, along with one which is HTML-only.
To generate a button for your own site, run an A2B search to find your own website, then click on the small "(i)" under your site. You will be taken to a page where you have the option to generate a "What's Nearby?" link for the site.
For example, to generate a "What's Nearby?" link for the Golden Gate Bridge website, access the following page:
http://www.a2b.cc/search-url-oper.a2b?link=17

Add a "Search A2B" map to your own website - in testing
We have recently begun testing a new A2B feature to allow you to use simple maps on your own websites - clicking on a point on the map will search A2B for the nearest websites to the point you click on.
In order to add a map to your own site, the following are requirements:
- An image file (GIF, JPG, PNG or BMP) of your map. You can even scan your own in from a paper map (as long as the map is copyright-free). Maps must be in a North-South orientation.
- The width and height of the image file in pixels
- The (decimal) latitude and longitude of the top left and bottom right corners of the map
This feature is currently in early testing. You can find more information on how to generate your own map (plus give feedback and ask questions if you run into trouble) on the A2B Forum at:
http://forum.a2b.cc/viewtopic.php?t=25
A very low-resolution example is up on the web at:
http://www.a2b.cc/test/imagemaptest2.html
There will shortly be a "generate your own map URL" feature on the main A2B website.
We are really interested to know if you think this is a useful feature or not, and how it could be improved if so.

Upcoming developments at A2B
At A2B we're constantly working on innovative features to keep making our site more interesting. In the next weeks and months, amongst other features, we will be working on the following new features:
- "Claim" your own website
If you are a registered A2B user, you will shortly be able to "claim" a website which has been added automatically to A2B via our weblog "ping" interface, and associate it with your username. You will then be able to change the latitude and longitude associated with the site, and even remove the site. However, we will also be introducing a feature allowing you to set your A2B username in the HTML code of your site, along with your ICBM and/or Geo.Position meta tags, then update your site automatically using A2B, which will override any "sitejacking".
- Internationalisation
We will soon be adding the ability to use non-plain-ASCII characters in names and locations when registering as an A2B user. Rest assured, A2B does have a global outlook, and the restrictions are currently there as a security measure.
- Town search
You will soon be able to search for links by proximity to town, region and country.
- Map-based GPS searching
We will shortly be announcing a great new feature allowing users to use mapping software to search A2B.

Mention us on your weblog
If you're a blogger, please make a mention of us on your weblog or website! We'd love it if you would!

User feedback - we respond fast!
As usual, please post comments, questions, bug reports and feature ideas on the A2B Forum at http://forum.a2b.cc - we usually respond very fast to messages you post! We can also respond to messages posted in French, Dutch or Spanish!
That's it for from us for now - until the next time, have fun using A2B!
Best wishes,
The A2B team |
