Numbers & Charts Galore With Our New Account Statistics

Posted by Brendan G. Lim on June 16, 2009

Recently, we announced our new feature that allows you to import feeds directly into your stream. We're continuing with the new feature trend this week by announcing our new Account Statistics available for all claimed accounts. To access it, just go to Admin, then choose 'Account Statistics' in the right hand menu.

Charts Galore

The new Account Statistics provides you with a nice amount of charts that should help you analyze the usage of your overall account, your individual users, or your account's groups. These charts are available in all detail levels within your account statistics. You can even view a map that shows the location of all the users within your account.



User & Group Specific Statistics

You may now dig into each individual user and group in your account and view their update trends. You can also view a table of all users or groups within your account and sort them by various metrics, such as their total number of updates, followers, followings, sign up or creation date, etc.



We will be continuing to add more metrics as time passes. Account Statistics is just another one of the useful new tools that are available for our claimed accounts. We'll be announcing more great new features soon, so stay tuned!

Import External Feeds Directly Into Your Stream

Posted by Brendan G. Lim on June 11, 2009

A feature that we've recently added to Present.ly allows any account to add custom external RSS feeds directly into one of your streams. You can add a stream just for your own account or you can even add a stream for one of your groups. We also give you the ability to make the imported stream public or private.



To add a new external feed for your own account, move your mouse over 'External' and choose 'Add New External Feed'. From there you can choose a name for your new feed, provide the URL, a description and other various options. Other users can even choose to subscribe to your feed if they would like to. If you are a manager of a group, you can add a feed from the your group's 'Settings' page.



Now you can subscribe to a user's Twitter stream, a Twitter search, or any other type of RSS feed. A great use of this feature is to stay on top of feedback about your company or your product within Present.ly.


We hope that you enjoy this new feature and be sure to check back soon for some great new feature announcements!

Posted by Brendan G. Lim on June 09, 2009


In the June 2009 issue of Inc. Magazine, Present.ly was mentioned as one of the best-bet collaboration tools for mobile users. It's becoming more apparent that companies need online collaboration tools that help alleviate the hassle of back-and-forth e-mail conversations and allow users to share information and documents. The article states that 22 percent of companies use real-time collaboration software and around 24 percent use document-sharing software, which Present.ly supports out of the box. It goes into detail on how to choose the right collaboration software for your company and provides real-life examples from different companies.

We are more than honored to be mentioned in a magazine that we all frequently read. If you get a chance, pick up the June 2009 issue of Inc. Magazine.
