One way to think of Pearltrees is like a very sophisticated, visually driven version of Delicio.us but with a much more socially oriented and collaborative way of discovering content and sharing new stuff you’ve found. For content creators, embedding a Pearltree in your blog post or article will allow you to provide much more information, better context and a very interesting user experience to your readers while at the same time keeping them on your site. The other way you can search is even more interesting. http://owstarr.com/#/pts/ StarrTrek: Going Where No Blog Has Gone Before... - (Build 20100722150226)
