PR Newswire announced the availability of a web widget that enables online users to easily integrate news and video distributed by PR Newswire into their own home page, blog or web site.
The PR Newswire Widget is powered by technology from Clearspring, provider of cross-platform widget services, and is compatible with all leading blog, customizable homepages and social networking sites.
“PR Newswire’s Widget facilitates the viral distribution of our customers’ content and, in the best traditions of Web 2.0, is truly user- driven,” said Rod Nicolson, vice president, Online Services, PR Newswire. “No matter where a person finds the PR Newswire Widget – a Google directory, blog, Friendster page or a MySpace comment – they can ‘grab’ it for their own personal page, enabling them to access and share content at the click of a button, thus extending the reach of our customers’ news to audiences with interests specifically aligned.”
The PR Newswire Widget is compatible with iGoogle, Netvibes, Pageflakes, MySpace, Facebook, TypePad, Blogger, Freewebs, Friendster, Webwag and Windows Live, allowing bloggers, website hosts and individuals with social networking pages easy access to PR Newswire’s feeds.
