Adding another tab to the Meebo bar on NewsOK

I wrote last week about adding the Most Viewed tab to our Meebo toolbar at the bottom of every page on NewsOK.

Then, a couple days after posting that blog update, we added another tab to the Meebo toolbar — this one is the Most Recent tab that shows the most recently posted articles from our entire website.

It’s a pretty unique article list. We don’t have anything like it anywhere on the site. It just a straight list of the most recent articles that we’ve activated. It is not a list of the articles we feel are the most important (you can see that at the top of our home page).

If you click on the tab, you’ll often see some articles from The Associated Press, since we feed much of AP’s content on the deeper pages within our site.

I think it’s a pretty neat tool to see the latest, even if it’s not the most important. Let me know what you think.
