Zootool in the wild

It’s is like a drug for me to check all the new stuff on Zootool every day, because it just feels great that more and more people seem to get some use out of it. There couldn’t be a better push to keep on improving and developing the whole thing.

It gets even better when I see people writing about it or adding the Zootool Batch to their blogs and it’s amazing to see more and more developers playing with the API. So I wanted to take the chance to build a list of of great stuff people did so far. If you’ve got anything which is missing here, please just drop a comment.

APPS

Zootool Offline – Backup all your images, videos, documents and links on your harddrive or your Dropbox



MyTinyCloud – A nice web app for the iPhone which makes it easy to access all your favorite online accounts and sites.


ZOOTOOL BADGE

Jon Hicks’ Journal – The Hicksdesign Journal is especially well known for the awesome articles about icon design. The Zootool Badge has a perfect place in the sidebar together with a great implementation of last.fm’s badge.



Project 1809 – new German blog with a slick implementation of the badge and an awesome blog theme.



Lars Igl – Lars has built his own badge with the API to get some more information about his entries and added a nice zoom effect from Matt Bango.


ICON SETS

Social Media Icons – a nice icon set from Paul Robert Lloyd



Addictive Flavour – famous icon set by Oliver Twardowski. Beside the included Zootool icon he also did a special wooden icon, which is really, really nice!

  1. thanks for zootool! that’s really a great and beautiful piece of work. i’d like to use the zootool badge for a blog. can you tell me how it is possible to define the link to the zootool-place as to be opened in a new window? that would make it much easier to check out a few links without getting lost in deep web.

    again, thanks a lot!


  2. I just added a new option. When you append target=_blank to the url in the javascript like this:

    http://zootool.com/badge/bastian/?count=10&size=75&target=_blank

    all links will open in a new window. Please check out the tools page for more info.


  3. Yeah!
    Thanks a lot for the link :)

    <3 the wooden icon! :)


  4. [...] unter Anderem auch Bastian, der Gründer von Zootool auf mich aufmerksam und hat mich so in einem Blogpost genannt. Und genau wegen dieser Widmung wollte ich mich herzlichst bei Bastian [...]


  5. that’s great! i’m enjoying more and more!
