TalkShoe Widgets Overview: TalkShoe has just introduced web-based widgets that display when a Community Call is live, when the next episode will be, as well as past recorded episodes. The widgets include a container that can be emailed, embedded or placed on start pages, blogs, websites, or social networks.

Benefits:
For Hosts - Promotes Community Calls by placing the widget on your blog, Facebook, MySpace and other web pages. Allows visitors to your sites to be able to listen directly from the widget, and gives information on how to call and participate in a live Community Call.

For Participants - Can share Community Calls they like, and join in a live Community Call directly from the widget.

For Listeners and Visitors - Can see when a Community Call is live or upcoming, and can listen directly from the widget or call into a live Community Call as a non-member.

For Everyone - Can listen to past Community Call episodes.

How it works: From any Community Call page, any host or user can get a widget (Create a Badge) and email it, get the embed code, or select 1 of the 9 web destinations to place the widget. By clicking on the “get & share” button at the bottom, the options for placing the widget will be displayed and will walk you through how to add a widget. The currently supported web destinations are iGoogle, Blogger, MySpace, Facebook, TypePad, Friendster, Webwag, Netvibes and Windows Live. The embed code can also be used to place on any website destination that supports flash (i.e. Ning). Also, anyone that sees a widget on any of these websites can also click “get & share” to grab that widget and place it on their own websites, thereby virally spreading the host’s Community Call widget. Hosts can configure the color and size of the widgets to better match their websites.
