Suggestive Images (No, Not that Kind)

65 Comments »

Today we added a new feature that suggests images for you to use in your articles. There’s a new ‘Get Image Suggestions’ button right next to the Article Body section of the Online Editor.

In order to get the best functionality from the feature, it helps to have your title, description, body, and tags already written. After you have some text entered in these fields, just click on the ‘Get Image Suggestions’ button to see a column of images related to your article. Simply click on an image and -poof!- it appears in the body of your article.

Watch how it works (for best viewing, expand the video to full screen):

Enjoy the new feature!


Triond’s New Homepage

34 Comments »

Our new homepage and dashboard are live! We’ve completely redesigned the pages to make them more friendly to visitors, and more usable for users.

Among the new elements on Triond’s homepage, the most notable are a snazzy new video all about the Triond service and community, and a list of links to sites in our diverse publishing network.  And, we moved the Hot Content list  so that it now appears in the Explore tab.

We’ve addressed the issue of users being able to stay logged in to Triond;  simply check the box “Remember me” once, and from then on you will stay logged in whenever you visit a Triond page from the same computer.  If you want to log out (if you’re on a computer used by more than one person, for example) make sure you click “Log out” at the top of the screen.

We’ve also revamped the Dashboard layout and added a Quick Actions section. From the Quick Actions section you can go directly to submit and edit your articles, update your account, and check out new feature additions.

There’s more where this came from, so check back here early and often.

Happy publishing!

It’s time to rediscover Bizcovering, the site in our publishing network for business-related articles.

A new layout and color scheme are just two of several upgrades that you’ll see when you visit Bizcovering. Changes in the site’s infrastructure mean faster load times, easier commenting, and better navigation.

Bizcovering articles cover a wide range of topics including finance, accounting, management, marketing, advertising and investing. If you haven’t seen the site yet, here’s a screenshot of the homepage:
