Reintroducing... the Window Seat - Propeller Blog »

I wanted to reintroduce everyone to a Propeller module previously called "Propeller In A Small Box" (PIASB). We have decided to give it a better name: The Window Seat.

As stated previously, Window Seat allows visitors to other web sites to alert the staff to stories they might be missing. It's a big, big Web out there, and sometimes news falls through the cracks. The Window Seat retrieves these stories from the abyss and presents them to the larger community, which can then vote them to the top.

Since we announced our flagship partnership with Asylum, we have been fortunate enough to install the Window Seat module on two other sites, Urlesque and Lemondrop.

A word about our latest partners. Urlesque is obsessed with everything web-related: viral videos, memes and the cultures that surround them. That viral video your mom will send you in three years? It's on Urlesque right now! Lemondrop, meanwhile, is a site devoted to young women's lifestyle. You'll find it all there: pop culture, relationships, topical issues, politics, and more. Both are terrific new web sites with great audiences, and we're thrilled that they are adopting the Window Seat.

      I am hoping that the 'Window Seat' eventually makes its way over to AOL's 'Autoblog' and to 'Political Machine' since I have a great deal of interest in those types of stories and submissions.

      Thanks
