Sphere It now on TFTS
I am overjoyed to announce that Thoughts from the Sidelines now boasts Sphere It functionality as, having applied to the Sphere It team for the WordPress Sphere It plug-in yesterday I found a mail in my inbox this morning from the team offering TFTS their fabulous plug-in (as well as stating that they know TFTS well – which was the sort of pat on the back we don’t get all that often).
So what does Sphere It offer you, our discerning and (let’s be honest here) rather good-looking reader? In short, Sphere It completes a rather clever semantic analysis concerning the text of each post and then presents a list of related reading from other sites that may prove of interest to you. Not only that, but it does all this in real time – impressive stuff indeed (and so impressive that TFTS joins the ranks of sites as elevated as Time.com in employing it).
If you would like to add a Sphere It bookmarklet to your browser you can do so by following this link.
In the meantime I hope you find this extra functionality to be of interest to you and I would like to thank those behind Sphere It not only for responding to us so very quickly, but for their kind comments concerning Thoughts from the Sidelines (and the resulting warm fuzzy moment that in incurred).
As far as gadget and technology sites are concerned we may not be anywhere near up there with the big hitters, but we’re certainly on the map and it’s all good (we work extremely hard on this site, so feedback such as this really means something).

Well done TFTS!!! A justifyable accolade for a great site. “It just keeps getting better” as Alice once said to the White Rabbit ….. well, she might have done!! Heavens, you’ll get mentioned in the tabloids next!! (If you’re really unlucky!!)
Hey Andrew, thanks for the kind words – very much appreciated. The widget looks good on your site. Best,
