As Twitter is exponentially growing in popularity and has seemed to attract users of all shapes and sizes, (I’ve now known of two people who have created detailed tweets while in labor) we’ve decided to add Twitter to Kazowie as an authentication method. As always, users can still log in with their existing AOL, Facebook, Google, OpenID, or Yahoo accounts so that they don’t have to create a whole new account.

This follows a feature release from last year ago that enabled users to post news feeds to directly to their Twitter, FriendFeed, and Tumblr accounts to keep followers up to date on their cool new finds. Read more about these features here and be sure to stay tuned for more releases in the future!

*Kazowie Loves Facebook Connect

In our never ending quest to make Kazowie the perfect shopping tool, we have recently implemented Facebook Connect.  Instead of registering and creating a whole new profile and friend base with Kazowie, you can simply login with an existing Facebook account and automatically share profile information, privacy, and friends between platforms.

Once you’ve signed into Kazowie with your Facebook account, from your Kazowie profile, you can easily invite any of your Facebook friends.

Once you’ve connected your Facebook and Kazowie profiles, anytime that you have any activity on Kazowie, you’ll have the option to publish a news feed to your Facebook profile. So, if you add products, leave comments, start discussions, or join groups, you’ll be asked if you want to publish the story to your Facebook profile:

If you choose to publish the story, a notification will be sent to your friends. Can you think of any other way to keep your friends up to date with your online finds?

Drag and Drop: Re-Order Your Products and Lists

We have also added some handy features that allow you to better manage your products: you can re-order lists, re-arrange products within lists and perform bulk actions to move multiple products between lists.

We make it super easy to re-arrange products within a list. Click on ‘Manage Products’:

And drag and drop your favorite products to the top of the list so they are not to be missed:

You can also move multiple products between lists in one action instead of manually moving individual items around. When in ‘Manage Products’, check mark the products that you want to move:

Then select the drop down menu and chose the list that you want to move them into.

Similar to re-arranging products within a list, you can also re-arrange lists. This is helpful for when you’ve created a large number of lists; you can drag and drop the most important lists to the top and move less important lists lower.

More fabulous features that allow you to customize your finds even more.  Stay in touch for future releases!
