"ThingLink Launches Site Redesign with Comments, Streams, New Tag Icons and Updated Music Players for Spotify and SoundCloud
"ThingLink, the most engaging image discovery platform (((that's an interesting thing to call oneself))) that lets you turn a photo into a media player, has launched a site redesign and new features – including commenting on images, image streams, search, new tag icons and updated music players for Spotify and SoundCloud. (((I bet you're as surprised as me to learn that Spotify and SoundCloud are gateways to ubicomp – but with an abstract, spooky name like "SoundCloud," maybe this alliance makes as much sense as Skrillex dating Ellie Goulding.)))
"Interactive images enable discovery - the ability for viewers to touch an image and hover and click through to content inside (audio and video players and social and purchase links. The new site design and features improve the viewing experience and drive social engagement among publishers and viewers.
"Comments on images enables viewers to engage with publishers and viewers.
"Image Streams let viewers follow interactive image publishers like Interscope Records, ‘Stache Media, Guardian, Wind-Up Records, Radio-Canada, NME, and others.
"Search lets viewers find and favorite images and publishers.
"New music players have been launched for SoundCloud, allowing commenting inside the tag, and for Spotify, enabling music streaming inside any photo.
"5 tag icon colors and 10 graphical icons - including a media player, shopping cart, Twitter and Facebook icons - are now standard in ThingLink’s image editor.
"ThingLink has also improved the viewing experience with responsive design and optimized viewing on iOS- and Android-powered mobile devices.
