New Features: article sharing, browser tab-control, and more
Today we released an update to the Filtrbox dashboard that contains a few new features we’ve been working on.
1. Article Sharing - you can now share articles found by Filtrbox via email, or post them to Facebook, Digg or Del.icio.us. There is an email envelope icon to the right of the article title that brings up the sharing box (see below). You need to be logged into your FB/Digg/Del.icio.us accounts to post the links there.
2. Invite a Friend - have a friend or colleague that you think would benefit from Filtrbox? Invite someone to join the private beta by sending them a personalized invitation. Just click on the “Invite a Friend” link on the top right corner of the dashboard 
and you can send them a note that contains an invite code (see below).
3. Browser tab-control when viewing articles: You can now force articles to open up in new browser tabs by with a CTRL-click on Windows or COMMAND-click on Mac. The default behavior is that articles open into the same target window, overwriting the previous page. Some of you prefer this so you don’t end up with 20 open tabs, and others prefer to have the additional tabs open…so now you can do whichever. Soon we’ll make this a user preference you can set once for your account.
4. New Flex loader - you’ll now see % complete info when the dashboard is loading. If you are on a broadband pipe it should only take a few seconds to load. At least now you have some feedback as to whats going on.
We are working feverishly on a number of other items (some you’ll see in the dashboard, some you won’t) for our next release. If there is anything you’d like to see included or fixed, please drop us a line or post a request on our Satisfaction page.
