Love their idea of having the "like" tees and they fantastically used the shopping cart on Facebook API :> <br /><br />@mindy: Thats why i think Threadless is really smart and trying their best to attract as many people as possible, and building their brand awareness with the current power of social media. I totally love Vimeo over Youtube... :>Steve Awhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13265952228879089226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5798654342825166284.post-69117484672106728822011-04-02T01:23:57.100-07:002011-04-02T01:23:57.100-07:00Very interesting!

It's funny that I've visited the threadless website many times and have noticed them on Facebook and Twitter, but didn't know that they were on Vimeo, Flickr, etc. I think they are a great example of innovation in assembly <br />(And I agree with you too that the interface and navigation of Vimeo site is better than YouTube!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5798654342825166284.post-25635240962155344272011-03-31T00:34:38.528-07:002011-03-31T00:34:38.528-07:00A great post!

As a frequent threadless tshirt buyer, its a buisness model that seems to work, i know from experience that being able to 'like' a tshirt design on facebook has meant the company has re-manufactured a design after seeing so many requests (likes).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5798654342825166284.post-57212160491365037702011-03-30T00:23:45.564-07:002011-03-30T00:23:45.564-07:00Great effort by making some interesting examples a...Great effort by making some interesting examples and never knew that Threadless is using so many different approach to reach out to people using the web. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5798654342825166284.post-14453966432088737842011-03-24T21:37:01.779-07:002011-03-24T21:37:01.779-07:00Sorry for the removing of the comments Steph...
...Sorry for the removing of the comments Steph... <br /><br />Thanks for the useful comments... :> <br /><br />Is there anything you feel they could do better? <br />Personally, i felt that Threadless have done a great job by using the Facebook API. There are millions of Facebook worldwide and using it to advertise or share it within the members totally allow them to outshine their competitors like 80sTees ( http://www.80stees.com/ ).<br />As for now Threadless is doing fine. They have used other APIs(Twitter, Vimeo, Flickr, etc.) to reach out to more people which is great. <br /><br />how do they deal with issues such as down time with platforms they integrate to? <br />Unless the internet is totally down, else-wise they have no worries. They still using their traditional ways for communication thru their forums or blog. Although their main API is using FB but they also have been using different APIs too..Steve Awhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13265952228879089226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5798654342825166284.post-53781630846383739002011-03-24T20:56:22.407-07:002011-03-24T20:56:22.407-07:00Steph said...

Your diagrams make it very clear - this is an innovative company and they are certainly taking advantage of API's to allow their users to build a profile, and seek support for their designs. Is there anything you feel they could do better? how do they deal with issues such as down time with platforms they integrate to?<br />@stephlouisesays <br /><br />24 March 2011 18:50Steve Awhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13265952228879089226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5798654342825166284.post-37321527903352171912011-03-24T18:50:08.551-07:002011-03-24T18:50:08.551-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Stephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08827700760338559862noreply@blogger.com
