Go, try it out! Sure let us know if you have nice custom skin we could use.
Folksr now works with Blogspot

Folksr now knows how to integrate with Blogspot engine. One of the largest community of bloggers is now open for social blogging!
Thanks to recent development adding support for new blog engines is now much easier.
WordPress plugin update 1.5
October 24th, 2009New version of Folksr plugin for WordPress is out just now. Long awaited fix for Settings menu in WP 2.8+ has been issued. If you have had any problems with your theme, now you can enable manual widget placing in configuration screen.
New feature: Tag filter
June 14th, 2009May I proudly present new feature in Folksr: Tag filter. Tired of looking for posts with certain tag? Look no more. Use filter!
Posts ordering now also should work faster as there is no more need for page to reload.
Avatar or Gravatar
May 30th, 2009You can now change your avatar directly in Folksr. Until yesterday avatar images were taken from Gravatar, which was not great for those not using Gravatar. This is no longer the case. You can upload your own avatar, just make sure it’s square.
Private Beta for Polish audience, day 1
May 25th, 2009Today was the first day of Private Beta programme for Polish audience. Invitations were sent and feedback was impressive. After squashing few bugs 10 new blogs could happily host Folksr widget. A person who greatly helped in tweaking Foksr is Rozie, so please visit his blog and play with the widget for a while (it’s soooo addictive!).
Also, password reset facility has been developed, as well as password change screen. Minor tweaks include XSLT sheet for sitemap file, XHTML compliance in Jogger.pl blog engine, better results for Similar Blogs, and follow/index rules here and there.
After one week of private beta tests for Polish audience, we are planning to extend the availability of Folksr to anyone on planet Earth!
WordPress plugin v1.4
May 23rd, 2009A plugin for seamless Folksr integration with WordPress has been updated. Current version (which is 1.4) introduces widget settings page. Thanks to it you can disable automatic widget placement, which can be helpful in solving theme look&feel problems.
Now are given the option to place the widget in arbitrary place on page, as long as you are able to edit templates.
Open for registration
May 21st, 2009After some problems with domain transfer we are back up again. Alive and ready to accept Beta stage participants. We are now cowardly inviting early adopters!
Should you join Folksr right now please feel free to request activation code. This is to keep initial Folksr traffic under control. We will get rid of this registration code thing once we are sure there are no bugs – first impression matters and we would like to avoid offending users with some obscure errors.
Mind that it took several years for Gmail to move from Beta to final release!

May 6th, 2009There will be Geeknic party on 9th May in Dublin and Folksr will be there, too.
If you want to meet cool Irish and international geeks and have a chat with chance of moving to pub afterwards, feel free to drop in! Be sure to check Dublin Geeknic wiki page.
PL: Folksr mówi po polsku!
May 5th, 2009Od dziś Folksr rozumie naszą mowę. Interfejs wielojęzyczny udało się opracować szybciej niż myślałem – zobacz sam!
Na opracowanie wersji dla innych języków przyjdzie z pewnością poczekać, póki co możemy cieszyć się, że chrząszcz zabrzmiał w trzcinie
