We have a good news for you.
If you are not finding comfortable enough to copy a web page URL and paste it on Siliconverge.com, then we’ve got a one-click solution for you.
You can easily submit stories to Siliconverge while visiting other website using some browser based tools. Just bookmark the link below in your favorite browser. After that, the only thing you have to do to start submitting a story is to click the bookmarklet in your browser while you are visiting the website that you want to submit the URL.
- Internet Explorer: Rightclick the link below, choose “Add to favorites.”
- Firefox: Drag the link below to your Bookmarks Toolbar.
- Opera: Rightclick the link below, and choose “Bookmark Link”.
The Bookmarklet: Submit to Siliconverge!
This is how it will look like once you install that bookmarklet in your browser.
Sometimes using this bookmarklet doesn’t help to populate the required data like ‘news title’, or ‘trackback URL’ properly. This is because, the website URL you are trying to submit doesn’t have that data easily accessible. In such cases, you may have to edit the title manually on your own.
Let us know if this little tool is helping you are not.
We understand that previously it was quite cumbersome for you to search for an appropriate category for each news story you submit. Now we have sorted those categories. So it’s easy to look and select an appropriate category for your story submission.
This sorting is also visible on the sidebar column. This will also help to navigate to different categories very easily. See below how it looks -
We hope that such kind of small improvements will help you to browse easily on Siliconverge.com
I’m very excited to announce the launch of Siliconverge.com. Siliconverge is a place for people and news from semiconductor industry to converge together. Our community (that would be you) share, discover and discuss latest and greatest news & stories related to semiconductor industry from different sources on the web.
I’m starting this service to filter out the signal related to semiconductor and allied industries from other noise available on the web. It’s very hard to keep ourselves up to date with available different news sources of Semiconductor industry on the web. Also, it’s very hard to find the best stuff on the web in the short time. Siliconverge is created to change the way people from semiconductor industry consume the information online.
When you find some breaking news, exciting story, interesting blog post, research paper, valuable tutorial or design article on the web, then submit it on the Siliconverge.com. Once any news or story is submitted, it immediately appears on the “Upcoming News” section for other people to notice it. Then they vote it if they like it. If your submission rocks and receives enough votes, it is promoted to the front page for the thousands of our visitors to read.
You can submit latest and greatest news content from existing online magazines, company websites, University research papers, conference proceedings or even obscure blogs.
