One of the more irritating things about the social web is that everything is everywhere. You can get great information from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube but you have to visit them individually to see all of your teams social media content. Unless, that is, your Website is a Follr Community.

Every Follr Community includes two versions of Social Wall, our content aggregation feature. On the home page you see the communitites own social media content:

It shows a real time feed of tweets, blog posts, videos and posts from all the major social networks giving you one place to see everything.

If you click the ‘Social Media’ link in the menu:

you get to see an even more extensive aggregation of social media which additionally includes all content from the communities parent and associated content providers:

Of course all of the content is responsive which means it will display on your mobile phone or tablet.

There are many Follr features that people tell us they love but content sharing gets more than most.

Within Follr you can widely share activity and content from and to your connections and with members of the general Follr community:

The activity and status updates you see are either from ‘My Network’ (your existing Follr connections) or ‘Entire Network’ (everyone else). You can then like, repost, comment and share that content via Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn or Google+.

To like a post simply click the ‘Like’ link and you will see this message:

To repost content within Follr click the ‘Repost’ link, add commentary (if so desired) in the box then click the ‘Post’ button:

In the example above you will see Mark used a hashtag, an @ sign and member tagging. We’ll highlight these features in a later post.

Commenting is easy – simply click the ‘Comment’ link, add your comments then hit enter:

And finally Sharing. Simply click the ‘Share’ link, select a social network you want to post to then click share. And you can post to Facebook and LinkedIn groups and pages!
