Plaxo known for its aggregation tools from all over the social web is now up for commenting and now has a stronger commenting system! The post from Plaxo Blog tells us about the two powerful new features to give everyone a “stronger Pulse”: Comments-in-the-Stream and deep integration with the travel itinerary site TripIt.
In the latest release, Plaxo makes conversations a more central feature of the service, bringing them front-and-center in the stream, rather than only on the details page of the shared event.
Take a look at the new stronger commenting system:
Plaxo got Pulse started by aggregating public feeds (and layering on a family/friends/business permission model inside Plaxo). Plaxo did that because that was what was available at the time, and because we believed that over time feeds would go mainstream and that mechanisms would emerge for getting access to private feeds. And, indeed, that has been the case, with the accelerating adoption of OAuth. Plaxo members can now take a feed of what they are privately sharing on Netflix, Picasa, and Twitter and share that selectively into Plaxo just with family, friends, colleagues, a group (or any combination of those).
Today, Plaxo adds to the list of private feed sources the online travel itinerary site, TripIt, via a deep integration with their recently released Open Travel Itinerary API. Now you can share your travel plans with whatever subset of your Plaxo connections which makes sense to you for example your business \ family \ friends or just for your self :)…. They’ll see your trips in their Pulse stream (and so will you).
And, if you think that’s all…. You’re wrong, there is more here! Couple of days ago I wrote about how to integrate your Facebook calendar with the Google calendar like wise now if you add tripit feed to your Plaxo account, it automatically adds events from your tripit calendar schedule to your Plaxo calendar :) sweet eh? … All this is possible using OAuth and we all know Joseph smarr is good at cranking this out really easy :D
