[Me.dium][1], the social browsing service, has launched a [new add-on][3] with full IE7 compatibility. Previously the service was only available through Firefox and its offspring (Flock, Netscape etc).

As with any social networking tool, Me.dium's usefulness comes down to whether or not your friends are using it, and with the new IE7 add-on that number may suddenly jump a bit.

To go along with the new IE7 add-on Me.dium has also released a widget that applies Me.dium's "real time" tracking window to blogs and pages.

The new widget adds support for non-Me.dium users and interested site owners can now watch traffic patters and see how Me.dium users are discovering, moving through and interacting with their sites in real time.

Though Me.dium may raise some privacy concerns with users (the site essentially tracks and logs all of your browsing history), the new tools may give some fence-sitters a reason to cast caution to the wind.
