What ever your reason if you haven&#8217;t joined Furl its time to do so. So lets get started. I have been told you like steps so here they are ! (This is written for the beginner so if you are Social Media or Internet Geek really just go to http://www.furl.net and register <img src='http://her-media.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>Step one</strong> go to <a href="http://www.furl.net/" target="_blank">furl and register </a>(right click and open in a new tab) of course this would be much easier if you were using Fire Fox you are using firefox right ?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.furl.net/signups/new" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-70" title="furl2" src="http://her-media.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/furl2.png" alt="" width="500" height="32" /></a><br />
Remember to use the SAME user name on all your social media related accounts so others can find you.</p>
<p><span id="more-67"></span></p>
<p>You will need to validate your email address before proceeding. Once validated you will be offered the ability to either download the toolbar or simply drag and drop the Furl button into your bookmark toolbar.</p>
<p><a href="http://her-media.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/furl3.png"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-71" title="furl3" src="http://her-media.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/furl3-300x152.png" alt="" width="300" height="152" /></a></p>
<p>I have limited toolbar space so I suggest the button. If you find that you enjoy using furl and gain exposure or a positive experience then consider the toolbar in the future.</p>
<p><strong>Next step:</strong> Go to your account settings and complete them http://www.furl.net/settings  (note to furl in case you read this- really just include this as a step in the registration it is a pain to have to go looking for them or to accidentally miss completing them)</p>
<p><strong>Next Step: </strong>Go to your account preferences :http://www.furl.net/settings</p>
<p>Before you go further click the Furl button below and Furl this post <img src='http://her-media.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> This will give you an example of how others will rate your site.<br />
<script src="http://www.furl.net/tools/furl_it.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <a onclick="return furlIt(document.title, document.location.href,'',document.referrer,'');" href="#"> <img title="Furl this page" src="http://www.furl.net/images/logo-sm.gif" border="0" alt="Furl this page" /></a></p>
<p>Now we want to <strong>get some Furl buttons on your Blog </strong>so others can bookmark and rate your blog.</p>
<p>In the navigation bar select Tools and drop down to Add Furl It! Button to your Website.</p>
<p><a href="http://her-media.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/furl4.png"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-74" title="furl4" src="http://her-media.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/furl4-300x95.png" alt="" width="300" height="95" /></a></p>
<p>Paste the code into your Blog template. As you can see above this code appears to also work inside a Word press post.</p>
<p>No<strong>te:</strong> You can also <em>include furl it bookmarks into your blog</em> if you are looking for some content. However I do not suggest this unless you become a very active Furl it user.</p>
<p>To do so  select Tools and drop down to Add Furled Bookmarks to Your Site.</p>
<p><strong>Next Step: </strong>Consider importing your bookmarks. Note I said CONSIDER. If you have any bookmarks you don&#8217;t want people seeing - then skip this step <img src='http://her-media.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>Next Step:</strong> Using Furl In a new tab visit a couple of your favourite bloggers and use the Furl It link in your tool bar to review and bookmark the sites (you may need to DISABLE your pop up blocker)</p>
<p>Once done select &#8216;your user name&#8217;s Furl&#8217; and drop down to My Archive where you will now see the two sites you &#8220;Furled&#8221; appear.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://her-media.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/fulr6.png"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-78" title="fulr6" src="http://her-media.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/fulr6.png" alt="" width="157" height="262" /></a></strong>You have completed registering at Furl It. There are some interesting features on Furl it such as subscriptions and groups, however at this time the group membership levels are pretty low.</p>
<p>If you have a passion for a certiain topic you may want to start a group.</p>
<p>I will cover a few of the other Furl It feature how tos in the future.</p>
<p>Be sure to go to <a href="http://www.lijit.com">http://www.lijit.com</a> and update your accounts to include your new Furl It account.</p>
