How can I add a source/feed?
Adding sources is easy on 8hands. The following is a step by step guide.
And remember, you can ALWAYS change and modify your sources by clicking on "Edit sources."
To add a source (i.e. social network, feed, or the like), choose one of two ways:
Either click the small "+" icon next to your avatar and source logos, or, open the "Options" menu and choose "Edit Sources". Click on "Add new source" and select the source that you would like to you add.
To add a feed:
- Follow the steps above.
- Then fill in the relevant URL feed. You can choose whether or not you want to get comment notifications by marking the "do not track comments" checkbox.
If you want to add a social network source, bear in mind that there are two different types of sources that you can add:
- Your Personal Profle: You will be asked to provide a password & username. 8hands will notify you of new private messages, comments, friend request and more. It will also compound a list of your top friends from all of your sources, as well as import all of your media into the media zone section.
- A Public Profile: You can also keep track of profiles other than your own. Simply enter the desired screen name and 8hands will import their shared content into the media zone (like Flickr pics and You Tube videos). You will then be able to drag and drop this content into IM conversations.
