Blern now offers a WordPress plugin for your blog! The “Blern Users Also Liked” plugin allows you to display a list of articles on your blog that were enjoyed by Blern users who also enjoyed the current post.
In WordPress plugin speak: This plugin creates a new TemplateTag allowing users to put a widget on their blog that displays a listing of other news articles and blog posts. That list of articles is created by Blern.com using information about users who indicated that they liked the article currently being displayed and contains other articles those users liked.
For example, Blern will look over the history of users who indicated they liked the article currently being viewed. It will then look at the history of other articles those users also liked. It then compiles that information to display a list of articles that were most commonly liked by the users who liked the current article.
You can see an example of this feature in action at the bottom of this post. Or in the sidebar on the right side of the main Blern blog site.
