On the road to pearltrees
As a former advertiser, I have expressed doubts about eye-tracking tests . Then my position used to be : an advertising is a message, the place where the eyes watch will never indicate you what message the brain will remember. So I have never changed a word or a photo just to please an eye tracking test. Jump to Comments
The day when the web missed the road
The important echo the three of them had on the tech blogosphere For each of them, great expectancies disappointed Suddenly, after ten years, 3 launch in a very short period of time Why such a movement ?
No more search engine, please !
En intégrant le déplacement sur le Web (la barre URL) , le déplacement sur ses propres sites (la barre Google et bientôt se autres fonctionnalités) et l’outil qui permet de se déplacer (le navigateur), Google se glisse dans une des principales zones d’indépendance des pouvoirs du Web: il mêle délibéremment la fenêtre de liberté qu’est le navigateur avec son propre index et ses propres bases de données. En établissant une communication systématique entre un navigateur qui abrite les données intimes des internautes, des sites battis autour de gigantesques outils de traitement de données et des activités publicitaires qui sont au fond le cœur de son métier, Google s’immisce enfin dans un espace où la confiance est une radicale nécessité… En mettant en avant ses propres contenus (les suggestions de recherches) lorsque l’utilisateur entre une adresse dans la barre URL, Google tente ni plus ni moins d’altérer la nature des déplacements sur le Web.

But google is a robot, the robot. Google is a belief in a perfect algorythm. The control of that robot on our own navigation has never been that powerful. When we know the intention of the people that drives the “robot” over information is becomes scaring. Several years ago, the internet, the web, this wild network seems uncontrolable and now it is in the hand of a robot, a belief in a perfect algorythm that could rule the world… Where has it gone!

The web will not stay strangled !
2.0 wave has brought a lot of fresh air on the web. Suddenly everybody was able, without being an engineer, to create or to bring something of his own on the web. Blogs, youtube, flick’r, myspace… Creativity blossomed out everywhere and still does. A lot of talents have been discovered thanks to these revolution. If everybody can create anything freely on the web, could we say it has become a free world ? I do not think so.
DeepDyve: Indexing the Deep Web - ReadWriteWeb
Paid Version DeepDyve also released a paid version of its service for $45 a year month, which will also allow you to refine your searches by content type. Other features of the paid version include dynamic clustering, visual clustering, and advanced search. Since the launch of its first version in September, DeepDyve has slightly improved its user interface, but if you have used a subscription database before, DeepDyve's interface and feature set, with the ability to narrow your results by subject areas and save your searches, will look quite familiar.

Wikipedia’s illusion
Wikipedia, like every encylclopedia is based on an illusion. What does encyclopedia promise?
A place of subjectivity would be perfect, that would show web contents just as each of us would like to see it. So Robert could select and show everyone how he wants his article to presented to HIS audience. I have a good news for you Robert, that is exactly what pearltrees is about. It will go live soon (march 2009).
Edition necessity
2. No one probably knows who Gary is and thinks he’s just another random commenter. Some comments ARE more important than others, but there’s really no way for me to point out Gary’s comment without doing a new blog post. Even then, if you happen only to see the post that Gary commented on you’d never know that Gary’s comment deserves more attention than the other 54 comments left there.

Help Me Rethink Information — AriWriter
We all will be editors!
But what is link with my entrepreneur life? I am currently working on “pearltrees” which aims to gather the first community of web editors. This means that everyone will be able to see his navigation, to select websites (the information) and to organize them in a pearltree (the format we invented). Thus everyone will build stories from websites sequences and will communicate them. Of course that is just a part of what will be possible on pearltrees but it is alreaday exciting. Just think about what nature has done with DNA.
Let your community rule!
It might seem strange or funny but when you start-up a web2.0 internet project (here meaning a social-service) even if you know precisely where you want to go, the functionnalities and the problem you want to solve you do not know what usage will be done of your plateform. Moreover, it might take some month to realize how it will socially work. And a quick success is not necessarily a good sign. Jump to Comments
