One of the advantages of using Genwi is the ability to share everything you want with your friends in one place. Genwi makes sharing super simple. One of our core beliefs is that people you know will have better things to share with you than the picks made by a computer. We built Genwi to enable people to sort out what matters from within the sea of available content. The most direct way to find good content is to share it amongst friends.
When you click ‘share’ on the footer of every item, an overlay appears with all of your friends. You can select all friends or select individual friends. Click ‘share’ after selecting and now the item has been shared with the friends you selected. This eliminates emailing links to friends and puts all of the content friends share with each other in one place. That is how simple sharing is on Genwi.

Share overlay enables selecting friends
To browse the items your friends have shared with you, simply log in to Genwi. Shared items will always appear in your Wire. You can use the left hand menu to filter your Wire to only show shared items. This way you can browse all of the items your friends have shared in one ‘river of news.’
Another great feature about sharing on Genwi is the ability to send a message with the items you share. When you are selecting friends in the share overlay, you can click ‘add message,’ below the friends list. Add message takes you to a message box where you can type your message that you want to share with the item. When your friends view the item in their Wire, they will see your message in a blue box below the item. They can reply directly to you. You will get their replies in your Inbox, and you will see a new message alert.

Sending messages with shared items is a great way to share
Finally, when it comes to managing your shared items Genwi makes that easy too. When you click on Favorites in the header, we have all of the items you’ve shared and that your friends have shared with you. You can browse all of them. This way you can see all of the items you have shared with friends. If you’d like to delete any items, simply click ‘remove’ next to any item. When you click ‘remove’ the shared item will no longer exist.
This post should inspire you to get your friends on Genwi if they’re not already. There is nothing nicer than seeing all the links to cool things your friends share in one place every morning.
