Today Me.dium is announcing full compatibility with IE-7. Me.dium has been available for Firefox and Flock since February and the Explorer version has been much anticipated. In addition, the developers have created a widget that applies Me.dium's “real time” window to blogs and other pages.
The new widget may well steal the news, as this tool extends Me.dium's “Web discovery” aspect to other sites. Bloggers and site owners can now observe traffic patterns, visitors and friends in and around their pages. Non-Medium [...]
