LiveBar: Social Networking On Every Page

In the spirit of The Long Tail, you’ll now be able to add social networking to every page on your web site.  LiveWorld.com is introducing “LiveBar” — a tiny little one-line-high text bar you can tack at the bottom of your web page, that allows a mini social community to build itself right there.

“LiveBar brings this dynamic seamlessly and directly to a site’s content web pages. Much easier to use than typical social network tools, LiveBar drops the barriers between a site’s content and community sections by making them one in the same. This breakthrough brings community alive on every web page, where the users are and when they are there.”

It has three elements — Conversations are essentially lightweight forum threads where users can post messages and solicit responses. Soapboxes are akin to blog posts and Shouts are like tweets in that they’re restricted to 140 characters.
