Hi, this is a quick video to show you how to use the TagK Facebook application.
Basically, this app allows you to display links to your other social sites, social profile sites on your face book profile. This is quite useful. The easiest way to get the application, obviously you cannot search in applications for TagK. The other way of doing is coming to tagk.com. And then scrolling down and on this post here there is link which will take you straight through to the application page. Now, from here you can then add this application. I have already added so I have got go to, you do may have to add the application here. Okay, this is the homepage for the application that shows who is using it and it is discussion board bits and pieces like that.
But let us actually go through the application itself. Once you have added it, there are whole load of default links for the different social sites such as my blog-blog, Youtube, my space, hi-5, flicker, etc. And all you need to do to activate one is click on this icon here and it will make it visible. These ones are already visible, so they will show up on my profile. If there is the red symbol with a white cross in it, it is not visible. Now what we do, want to do before we make it visible is edit it. Let us say I want to put my flicker ill in here to link straight to my flicker accounts.
Now first of all, if I go to flicker, I will show you how to get that. If you and log into your flicker account and go to the You page and then if I move this down a bit you will see where the ill is. It is this bit here that we are interested in, okay photos, front slash and this bit okay. Copy and paste that into the link in TagK. I am just going to copy into a text pad for a moment. So now, I will go back to the application of TagK. I will click on edits and it will take a second or two to come up. And once it comes up, what we actually do is paste the bit that we copied from flicker after flicker.com. So, I will just right click and choose paste. That is now the link to my flicker account. So, click on save changes, it will update it and once you refreshes, all I need to do now is click on the icon here to make it visible, again, a second or two to update. So we have now got that and it will now appear on my profile.
The other type of link that you can have is called My Link. Now you can have quite a few of these, basically you get them by inviting friends. So, every 10 or 20 friends that you invite, you get new link. This is a bespoke link, so you can put whatever you want in here. For the moment you stop with the default icon, but we are looking it allowing you to have personalized favicons there. But for the moment, all you need to do is click on edit and then decide what you are actually going to put in there. And in this case I am going to put a link to my blog, so I will change the title to my blog and then I will type paste in or type in the ill or web address for my blog and click on save changes. Again, it takes a moment for you to update and once it is updated I can make that invisible so that it will appears.
Okay, so we find a two new links there. I can also move these up and down so if I want my blog to be higher from the list, I can click on the icon here and it will move it up. And again and it moves further up. So, you can move things up and down to the side where they appear. We are looking in a way of speeding up because the moment if you go a link all away down the button here and you want to make it at the top, it takes quite a lot of tricking. We are looking and changing the application so you can do it quicker basically. So, that is updating the links himself. If you do want to invite some friends just click on the icon and in a moment you have scroll down to the bottom page which is where the invite friends’ option is. We are changing that as well as also appear to top to make a lot easier, but now she go through to my profile. At the moment you can see we do not have the flicker link over to My Blog link so I simply click on refresh. I will take the moment to refresh and that is why I refresh so that we can see we have got the Flicker link and that we have got the My Blog link. So if I click on that, it will take me straight through to My Blog or someone else. So, it is a very simple way of actually keeping you track of links to your other social profiles, you’re My Space page, etcetera. All on the profile page on Face book, okay. Let me see, this is another standard of application where you can pick it up and drag it to wherever you needed. Hope that helps but feel free to go to the application page and post any questions or suggestions or new sites that we need to add.
Thanks very much for listening.
