Pearltrees: Visual Collaborative Web Browsing Interface

Pearltrees: Visual Collaborative Web Browsing Interface
I am with the Traveling Geeks at Pearltrees’ headquarter in Paris, I already published about Pearltrees a few months ago when it was in pre- alpha, but the public beta will launch in two days at LeWeb. Pearltrees is a visual collaborative web browsing interface: users browse the internet visually using “Pearls” that represent websites and, by connecting them, they create a network of interest, I call it the “interest graph”. The social networking component, allows users to follow each other and use other people pearls to build their “interest graph”, they can collaborate to create a common tree with pearls shared among many people. With the Pearltress-Twitter sync feature users automatically build pearls by tweeting urls on Twitter, and automaticallt tweet urls by creating pearls in Pearltree, it will launch in two days. Ewan Spence asked an interesting question: what about the mobile version?

Nexus One Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Le Nexus One[1],[2] est le nom du premier smartphone créé sous la marque Google par HTC. Il est le premier smartphone fonctionnant sous le système d'exploitation Android 2.1 pour téléphones mobiles. Sorti le 5 janvier 2010, il a été conçu en partenariat avec Google, propriétaire du système après le rachat de la société Android le 17 août 2005. Le Nexus One n'est pas le premier smartphone fonctionnant sous Android. Il a été conçu par Google, dans le but de montrer aux constructeurs comment « bien réaliser » un téléphone sous Android. Les fonctionnalités du téléphone incluent la transcription de la voix en texte, un dispositif de réduction de bruit ambiant, des indications vocales lors de la conduite, ainsi que de nombreux widgets[3]. Historique[modifier | modifier le code] Le , la marque commerciale « Nexus One » est déposée par Google, Inc. Le 15 mai, Google annonce qu'il arrêtera de distribuer son super-phone directement sur son site[7].

Venture Beat If you’re the type of obsessive-compulsive person who needs to organize the firehose of information confronting you every day on the web, then Pearltrees might work for you. It’s a visual social bookmarking service that allows you keep track of what you’ve read and establish relationships between different pieces of content. Using Pearltrees is like drawing a mind-map, but with online content. You can drag-and-drop content into a browser add-on or the service will automatically index links you share on Twitter. Then you can organize all of that content into a tree or a web of keywords like the picture shown above. It’s like organizing bookmarks into folders and sub-folders but in a two-dimensional space. Other people can follow, link or add to the trees you’ve built, so there’s a social element to the site. Pearltree’s approach involves a pretty unique user interface, and it will probably work better for people who think visually.

UMTS frequency bands The UMTS frequency bands are radio frequencies used by third generation (3G) wireless Universal Mobile Telecommunications System networks. They were allocated by delegate to the World Administrative Radio Conference (WARC-92) held in Málaga-Torremolinos, Spain between February 3, 1992 and March 3, 1992.[1] Resolution 212 (Rev.WRC-97), adopted at the World Radiocommunication Conference held in Geneva, Switzerland in 1997, endorsed the bands specifically for the International Mobile Telecommunications-2000 (IMT-2000) specification by referring to S5.388, which states "The bands 1,885-2,025 MHz and 2,110-2,200 MHz are intended for use, on a worldwide basis, by administrations wishing to implement International Mobile Telecommunications 2000 (IMT-2000). Such use does not preclude the use of these bands by other services to which they are allocated. The bands should be made available for IMT-2000 in accordance with Resolution 212 (Rev. WRC-97)."

Techcrunch [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. But today the startup opens the kimono on its full system. They will announce two new things today: Twitter synchronization (enabling a user to create a pearl automatically from Twitter and to tweet automatically from their new Pearltrees), Pearltrees search, Real time discussion and connection. The other new aspect announced today on stage at Le Web is the Pearltrees Social System. But to explain first, here’s a new video they just released: Pearltrees is effectively visual social bookmarking and therefore has the potential to be more widely used than perhaps the traditional alternatives. You can track what you have looked at and watch what your friends are tracking.

Chips will drive VoWLAN into mobile phones Texas Instruments Inc. (TI) announced its WiLink mobile Wireless LAN (mWLAN) platform, which will include the TNETW1251 and TNETW1253 devices to provide Voice over WLAN (VoWLAN) to mobile phones. The TNETW1251 is 802.11b/g single chip, while the TNETW1253 is an 802.11a/b/g single-chip device. The platform includes a software package and the WiLink 4.X Software Development Kit (SDK). The devices will be manufactured in a 90nm advanced RF-CMOS process and use the company's DRP technology. The software development kit includes a "Thick MAC" architecture which off-loads some of the host processing functions to the single chips which enables WLAN support on low-end CPU host processors commonly found in low-end mobile phones. The 802.11b/g and 802.11a/b/g products support IEEE and industry standards for security and quality of service, including 802.11i, 802.11d, 802.11k, WPA2.0 and WME/WSM. The WiLink 4.0 mobile WLAN 802.11b/g and 802/11a/b/g solutions are expected to sample in 3Q 2005.

Scoble about French entrepreneur On Tuesday I joined up with the Traveling Geeks (a band of journalists/bloggers/influentials who visit startups around the world, picture of them above in a Paris subway station) in Paris and we saw a ton of startups. Some of them, like Stribe, were very good. But overall they just didn’t measure up. In fact, they even got me to be rude to them, which caught everyone off guard. First, if you meet with journalists, influentials, and bloggers who are coming from outside your country I assume you want to build a world brand. So, since you were meeting with us and since we’ve spent precious resources getting there and had sizeable opportunity costs, I figure entrepreneurs should be better prepared. 1. Four CEOs told me their companies weren’t on Twitter and that they didn’t have enough time to join Twitter. Luckily I’ve found 500 tech company founders who ARE clued in and found Twitter to be important. 2. 2b. 3. 4. 4b. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Pearltrees: A Unique Way to Discover & Organize « Zorap Creates Traveling Geeks Virtual Geek Pad for France Blogging Tour | Main | Orange Highlights at LeWeb #leweb » December 07, 2009 Pearltrees: A Unique Way to Discover & Organize on the Web Pearltrees CEO Patrice Lamothe meets us at the door of their offices on rue de charonne in a funky, artsy area of Paris that houses other early stage companies and ad agencies, not unlike San Francisco's SOMA in many ways. Coffee waiting? He's not an unknown personality in Silicon Valley so some of us had heard of, tried, tested and demoed Pearltrees before. "Building an organization on the web touches on how you organize your stuff in the real world. Pause....a nearby church bell rings on the half hour. Pearltrees allows you to get in touch with others who share mutual interests around the way you 'organize yourself on the web.' Visually it looks a bit like the brain......not unlike a mind map, but that's not the point of the app, which is all done in flex btw. Who uses it? TrackBack Comments
