Ok, I promise that this is the last post related to browsing content, ratings, etc. for a while. But this feature is cool enough to blog about.

Ned spent Saturday working on a way to navigate the site by people’s favorites list, and we’ve just pushed it live. In a nutshell what this does is let folks see who has marked a tabblo as a favorite and what else they’ve marked. It is very “web 2.0″ in that the new navigational overlay takes advantage of a gesture that you are making for yourselves (bookmarking something as a favorite) and uses it to provide a virtual tour for your fellow tabbloers.

We had discussed this feature months ago as a possible replacement for ratings but it was not until last night when I saw it on a staging copy of the site that I realized how much more powerful it can be. Give it a go by starting at any of my favorite tabblos.

One final note: since we make people’s favorites lists public (though the tabblos on those lists are not necessarily visible to everyone), this new way of navigating the site does not reveal any information that wasn’t there before. What Ned has done is expose it in a much more digestible format.

Have fun.
