Smarter profile URLs
Public entries from users can already be filtered by type or you can search through them, but from today on you can also filter them by tag with new smarter urls:
Show all my entries with the tag “design”
zootool.com/user/bastian/tag:design
Show all my images with the tag “iphone”
zootool.com/user/bastian/images/tag:iphone
Show all my videos with the tag “iphone” and the searchword “game”
zootool.com/user/bastian/videos/tag:iphone/search:game
To use the new URLs with your profile simply replace my stupid username with yours :)
i.e.: zootool.com/user/yourusername/tag:iphone
All those URLs can easily be made into tiny URLs:
zoo.tl/bastian/tag:design
zoo.tl/bastian/images/tag:iphone
zoo.tl/bastian/videos/tag:iphone/search:game
This opens up a lot of new possibilities to share stuff with your friends and to use your profile as a social media hub. This also makes room for further improvements to the profile pages, which I hope to add soon.
Sehr schoen – danke!

Very nice. Thank you.
2 questions:
a) why not show a headline or so when filtering this way? this way you do not know what exactly is showing. you know what i mean?
b) is there a way to combine tags like “tag:webdesign+inspiration”

a) I plan to slowly upgrade the profile pages, so this will be one of the next steps.
b) good idea!! :)
