It's rare to look at a bookmarking tool and feel convinced that it's going to win a design award. Pearltrees is such a product. The French site offers us a new way to explore and contextualize the web. In what looks like a mind map structure, users collect "pearls" (links to articles, videos and web pages) and drag and drop them to form a body of knowledge that folds and expands upon itself.

In an interview with Pearltrees CEO Patrice Lamothe, ReadWriteWeb found that company already has a loyal user base including our friends at ReadWriteFrance. Said Lamothe, "We wanted a type of game play that was playful to use and map the web...and the fact that you can group and ungroup content easily means that you can re-catalogue it and keep it current. " Rather than looking at the web as a series of linear pages, this service lets us build tree graphs of connecting arguments, share them and then break them at any time. The Future of Touch Interfaces. Pearltrees: A Novel Approach to Web. Posted by Sravan | April 22, 2009 . Today, access to content on the Internet is largely dependent on search algorithms or aggregation at social sites.

This dependency gave rise to SEO and related ways of promoting content. Ergo, even though everyone on the Internet has the tools required to create all kinds of content, more or less, many feel obliged to choose their content and form keeping the current limited ways of content access in mind. Pealtrees seeks to mend it through a novel approach to web. Using Pearltrees one can collect web navigations; represent them in the form of maps; modify and rearrange them to create unique desired versions; share, combine, compare and discuss trees with others’; and navigate the Internet from edition to edition, following the maps of interests and creations of the community.

Pearltrees is a very novel concept and today we have Ariel Sommeria-klein with us to talk about it. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. Go2web20. Pipl - People Search. Is My Blog Working?
