Default Microblogging Your Listings

There is of course twitter but tumblr.com is pretty good with much nicer templates and a much more intuitive interface.

Very nice David. If anyone is interested I have also successfully included my 68C ads with a Joomla/Jomsocial site that provides social networking for my local area (Facebook signup too). It's almost finished, I'll post a link when it's done.

Anything to drive traffic to the main classifieds site.

That sounds interesting Michael. Does it drive any traffic for you to your classifieds site?

I haven't released it into the wild yet. Let me tidy it up and I'll post a link for critical review . . .
