Dropular: 24hr. Beta Signup
If you’re at all familiar with the excellent FFFFOUND and it’s ilk, you’ll no doubt recognize Dropular as yet another social bookmarking site. I’ve always enjoyed FFFFOUND and it’s clever grouping, it’s really easy to just keep digging and finding more and more good stuff over there. But I guess I missed their public sign up phase (if there ever was one) because I never got my own account and was never able to participate. So when I heard about this new site and last week’s beta I jumped at the chance. The good news is they have opened the beta up for another 24 hours which spans all of today (Monday, Feb. 9) so anyone can join in (just click “register”).
Dropular has a slick interface and an ever slicker bookmarking system which is absolutely seamless and dead simple (click for video demo). I am not sure if Dropular will suffer for it’s open registration model — I always felt the exclusivity of FFFFOUND served it well — but at the very least, Dropular is a great way to organize all the images and video you love. You can follow my Dropular stream here (there’s not much up yet but I’ll be adding every day).

February 9, 2009 at 2:32 amNice, I’m glad they opened up registration again! I’m loving the simple and streamlined look. Yet another bookmark to check in the morning…

February 9, 2009 at 3:22 amI’m in, FFFound was invitation based which sucks for the people who aren’t in but interesting. Which kinda pissed me off because you get excluded. I thought you would of had an account by now, was actually gonna ask you to help me out :P
Quite keen to give this Dropular a bash.

Is it running incredibly slow for anyone else right now?
Chris says:
February 9, 2009 at 8:35 amVery nice. Thanks for the heads up.
Joakim says:
February 9, 2009 at 9:30 amDaniel Carvalho: Dropular will also be invited-only after the beta-registration is over. You get 3 invites once you’re registrered. I guess it’s a way to keep up the good quality.

Gregory says:
March 4, 2009 at 9:44 amSimilar to nitzan I have also created a method for displaying a dropular feed in wordpress. My example is not delivered as a plugin. Just the php with some explanations and room to customize.
