Spinlets Private Beta – The First Exclusive Glimpse

24 May, 2007

Beta, Web 2.0

I have previously written about Spinlets and I promised I would tell you more once I gained access to the private beta. Well that just happened, so here is a fresh look at Spinlets.com current and future features.

Interested in beta testing?

Let me start out by saying this looks very promising. I know I tend to say that a lot, but I’m a Web 2.0-applications-coholic. I only write about start-ups and betas that make me happy and your day easier or funnier. Anyway Spinlets is still in private beta, but I will still reveal a couple of details. If you are interested in testing Spinlets contact them directly on Spinlets.com.

Spinlet Features

Currently Spinlets features the following:

  • Twitter Spinlet (See demo below)
  • Craigslist Spinlet
  • Digg Spinlet
  • Flickr Spinlet
  • Google Maps Spinlet
  • YouTube Spinlet

I know there is nothing new in a twitter “widget”, but how about a digg Spinlet that shows the hottest and most popular diggs anywhere on your webpage?

It is getting even better. The following Spinlets are on the way:

  • Ebay Spinlet
  • Facebook Spinlet
  • Fark Spinlet
  • Zillow Spinlet

The eBay Spinlet has a huge potential. I can show my eBay auctions right on my blog. I really like the thought of that. Some kind of Instant Messaging Spinlet, a sports result Spinlet and a Social Link Networking Spinlet (Technorati and delicious) would be great too. Enough talk let me show you a few:
