The amazing thing is that it is more than just a way to find recent posts, share the post on Digg, or search your site as most sites have. The two coolest features at this point are the Facebook button and the Notification window.

The Facebook/community button allow visitors to join your Facebook community, but better yet go to your Facebook fan page (you do have one don’t you?). By becoming a fan of your Facebook page, your posts will show up in their News Feed, which many people visit multiple times a day.

The second and probably coolest feature is that you can send notification messages to your visitors from the Wibiya administration panel. You could send a welcome message encouraging them to explore the toolbar (for a while until the tool is fairly commonplace), or send notes about new posts, events (eg. live webinars, etc), limited time offers and so on.

Go to Wibiya for more information – you will need to apply for a key at the time of this writing, during the Beta phase. I got mine in about a day. Once you configure the apps you want, where your blog and Facebook page are, you just paste a small javascript snippet of code into your site just below the tag. In Wordpress this is easy, I just go into the footer.php file and paste it once and it applies across the entire site!
