We've unveiled a couple of new enhancements: RSS capabilities for recent, popular, and each aggregated tag page. You could always visit those pages through a web browser, but now you can subscribe to their feeds in anything that accepts RSS (including myEarthLink Reader). If there's a particular topic you'd like to follow, add it as a word to the end of this URL: http://myfavorites.earthlink.net/rss/tag/

So if you want to keep up with things that everyone saves under the term "ipod", copy and paste this address into your RSS reader:

http://myfavorites.earthlink.net/rss/tag/ipod

If you're a Reader user you can add these to your Reader application using the handy Toolbar button.

Additional changes that just came out include some font and text modifications to make things easier to read, and a behind-the-scenes interface to smooth out the way you can add favorites from other EarthLink sites and applications.

Let us know what you think.

Check out what you can do with the WordPress plug-in called Sociable. Take a look at the bottom of this post on my personal blog (an experimental area for me). See the EarthLink logo? If you click on that logo it'll add whatever post it's contained within to the myFavorites application. Pretty nifty!

This plug-in allows you to add many other social bookmarking icons to your blog posts, but I'd recommend going easy on the number you add - just to avoid looking tacky.

Brief instructions after the jump...

If you'd like to add a myFavorites icon to your blog here are some basic instructions (I am assuming that you're an experienced Wordpress plug-ins user).
