Curatr - Motivate your learners to truly engage with online learning. Utopic.me launches new design and visual bookmarking to help discovery. Curating and sharing links on the web is a hot space.
Delicious has relaunched, and services we’ve written about like Snip.it are trying to get you to share all of your links on its service. Utopic goes a step further in helping you discover and share links, videos, music, and pictures that are relevant to you with its brand new gorgeous design and visual bookmarking launch. Utopic had this to say about its new visual bookmarking feature: With one click you can now save, tag, share and later quickly recover anything on the internet that you find interesting.
The same goes for your favourites and links already shared on social networks. Discovery When you sign-up for Utopic, you can connect your Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Google reader accounts. Once you’ve connected your accounts, Utopic takes about a half hour to go through your links. The design is visually stunning, and doesn’t make you feel like there are too many options, something other bookmark sharing sites suffer from. Buzzing with Social Curation Tools!
