Pearltrees Reaches Key Milestones: Largest Curation Community - SVW
( Patrice Lamothe, CEO of Pearltrees.) I'm proud to bring you news about Pearltrees , the company I've been working with the past year: this morning it announced it has reached 100,000 members and monthly traffic of 10 million pageviews -- that's about 100 page views per month per member.
Content of any type is not useful unless you can find it, organize it and interact with it. In the enterprise companies have tried many different schemes to try and get business content collected in a central repository, organized, tagged, version controlled, and searchable. This has often taken the route of "content management" systems. Content management systems to varying degrees, do an adequate job of getting some content into a controlled system environment. There are challenges with content management systems on two fronts though, getting content into the system in the first place (getting employees to participate in inputting content in some way) and getting the right content into the hands of the person who actually needs it. Search helps find content and tagging can increase searchability of course, but the whole system is only as good as the ability to input and tag the content, which inherently requires broad participation.

[France] Paris-based Pearltrees has been catching interest around the web the last few days not least because a gaggle influential Silicon Valley bloggers have descended on Paris for Le Web , but mainly because of its interesting model for visually mapping how people collect and share information on the Web.
Pearltrees launches Twitter sync and reveals its social system
While we continue to consider the pros and cons of various content delivery sites, and companies like Yahoo, Mashable and Gawker try to come up with personalized delivery systems for their content, there’s a startup out there who has come up with an entirely different way to curate content. Pearl Trees is completely unique as far as I’ve seen in content curation. It reminds me of a cross between a Prezi, a visual dictionary and social content curation.
