Yfrog Widget: Video and Photo stream to your Website

by Todd Lucier on October 19, 2010

One of the things I like about Facebook is that the free widget “Facebook Fan Box” that makes it easy to keep your website always fresh.

Yfrog Widget is a Showstopper for Photos and Video

yfrog has a neat embeddable widget for sharing photos and video on your web siteNow Yfrog, the Twitter photo and video sharing platform offers a free customizable widget that will update your Webpage any time you stream video or take photos and sharethem on twitter with YFrog.

The delicious user interface for creating the Yfrog widget allows users to customize the shape of the widget and colour it to seemlessly plug in and match your Web site.

Each video or photo posted to Yfrog shows up in a live stream along with your comment and clicking on the Widget brings you to the full version of the photo or video as hosted at the site.

How to know if YFrog’s Widget is for you:

  • looking for an easy way to keep your Website always fresh
  • enjoy taking photos and video on a regular basis
  • photos and video would help your ideal client appreciate something special about your business.
  • You use twitter regularly
  • have a mobile device that captures photos and video
  • you have a healthy disdain for Facebook and wouldn’t dream of putting a Facebook Widget on your site.

What do you think? Is it important to have an always fresh Website?
