Ryan’s LibDig is a social bookmarking service for Liberal Democrats. In other words, it’s an easy and convenient way for party members to share interesting, funny, useful or panic-inducing stuff* they find on the internet, and to see what other people have come across.

If you are a LibDig user, thanks to some new coding by Ryan you can now use an RSS feed to display your choices in other places, such as on your website. For example, if you look at my page – http://libdig.co.uk/profile.php?id=5&cmd=dugg – there is now an “RSS” option to the right of the photo.

Why might you want to use this? It means for example that if you have your own website or blog, you can use the RSS feed to display all your LibDig choices on it. Likewise, you can display a feed on your Facebook profile using one of the Facebook apps which let you display feeds.

Meanwhile, LibDig is now on Twitter: http://twitter.com/libdig. If you are a Twitter user, following LibDig means you’ll get a message each time a new item is added.

* Stuff is the technical term which encompasses words, pictures, movies, sounds and smells.
