Pearltrees Beta Launches on Wednesday: Will Let You Archive the Links You Share on Twitter At this year's LeWeb conference, Pearltrees will launch the beta version of its bookmarking and curation service. In this beta, Pearltrees will introduce some interesting features for Twitter users. Starting Wednesday, Pearltrees users will be able to connect their Twitter accounts to the service. We got a chance to discuss Pearltrees and its upcoming launch with the company's CEO Patrice Lamothe in the startup's Paris offices today. Thanks to the new Twitter feature, which will put all of the links you share on Twitter into a drop box on Pearltrees, you can now easily create a complete archive of all the content you share. Also Coming This Week: Real-Time Updates Starting on Wednesday, Pearltrees will not just allow you to import links from Twitter, but the service will also be able to send out alerts to your Twitter friends when you update your own pearls. API Coming Soon
Pearltrees Launches Embeds - Makes Bookmarks More Useful Online bookmarking tools haven't really changed much over the last few years. Most services still present you with a basic list of tagged links. Pearltrees, however, is taking a radically different approach. The Paris-based company organizes links as a collection of "pearls" that are connected by a mind map-like tree graph. Pearltrees Embeds The company, which launched a new beta version of its service last month, notes that these new embeds will give bloggers and journalists the ability to present their readers with a new way to explore a topic in depth. A tool like this can come in handy when you want to show the research that went into a longer article, for example, or whenever you want to give your readers more background and context than you could pack into a simple list of links in a blog post. Pearltrees also gives you the ability to share links with other users in real time and to subscribe to other users' collections. To get started, simply sign up for an account here.
Pearltrees’ new Super Embed feature revealed As the amount of content in various places seems to increase with each passing day, the need for smart curation online only becomes inevitable. Pearltrees made public a new attribute called Super Embed at the annual west coast Web 2.0 Expo that claims to do just that. The company will also roll out its new Beta 0.7 release soon. This new launch offers bloggers, journalists and Internet users the ability to organize a series of web pages about a particular topic. In addition to this, the latest release also packs in some other major improvements. Discovering, organizing and sharing content that may be found on the web is said to be transformed with this latest version. Users simply need to copy an HTML code from Pearltrees and paste it into their site or blog. On pearling identical pages or employing a Pearltree, users also automatically create their interest graph. The new Pearltree Beta 0.7 is expected to be unveiled this week at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.
Pearltrees: A Design Interface for Remapping the Web 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. 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. Naturally, as a newly anointed God of information, other great thinkers will gravitate towards you. The Future of Touch Interfaces Given the unique user interface of Pearltrees, Lamothe expects that the company will roll out feature releases and enhancements on an ongoing basis. At this point, I almost fell out of my chair thinking about the possibilities.

Curation Startup Says It Captures 10,000 Links a Day French startup Pearltrees offers a very unique interface for organizing and sharing collections of links from around the web. Tomorrow the company will release a new, faster version of its application and announce that it has passed 2 million links curated in 7 months since going live. That means an average of 10,000 links have been bookmarked in Pearltrees every day since launch, and presumably many more now that the site has grown. Last month the company announced that it raised $1.6 million in venture funding. I love what Pearltrees is trying to do, most people I talk to love the idea, and it's good to hear the service is getting so much traction. It's hard to know what percentage of those thousands of links are pulled in automatically from synced Twitter accounts. What do you think about Pearltrees? Have you found yourself using the service regularly, though? The interface still just isn't quite there for me yet, though.
Matérialiser le souvenir de nos lectures numériques - La Feuille A l'occasion d'une résidence virtuelle pour le studio artisique Proboscis, James Bridle (dont je vous ai déjà de nombreuses fois parlé et dont je vous recommande le blog) a imaginé des bookcubes, des cubes pour matérialiser ses lectures numériques et leur souvenir dans sa bibliothèque, comme les livres papier matérialisent nos souvenirs de lectures rangés dans sur nos étagères. "Ces enregistrements (matériel) - ces souvenirs - sont importants parce qu'ils sont des pierres, des aides mémoires et des quantifiants visuels", explique-t-il. "Les livres sont des souvenirs d'eux-mêmes". Leur existence ne se résume pas à leur lecture. Ils existent avant (on les désire) et ils existent également après (on s'en souvient). Une belle façon de répondre à la question de rendre ses lectures numériques (et leur valeur, intellectuelle et affective) visibles. Share and Enjoy Cette entrée a été publiée dans art, Design, interface, papier.
PearlTrees Launches Super-Embed Version At Web 2.0 Posted by Tom Foremski - May 3, 2010 I've been doing some work with Pearltrees, which has become my favorite curation tool because it is a very good media technology -- it allows me to publish a visual representation of web sites and how they are connected. Pearltrees just got better with the launch of a new version that allows you to embed a live window (below). The great thing about Pearltrees is that you can take my Pearltree and add it to yours. If I update my Pearltree you see the update immediately. Pearltrees is at the Web 2.0 Expo this week and has been chosen for the Launch Pad program, which highlights five of the best companies at the trade show. Here is my Pearltree of the Web 2.0 Expo.
Social curation finds an audience: Pearltrees reaches 10M pageviews With its slick visual interface for bookmarking content, Pearltrees is unique enough that I’ve been both impressed and slightly skeptical that a mass audience will actually use it. But it looks like the site has found plenty of users. The French startup just announced that it crossed two big milestones in March: It has more than 100,000 users curating links, and it received more than 10 million pageviews. Not only does that show the concept is resonating, but it also suggests Pearltrees could reach the scale where it can build a real business around advertising or by offering premium accounts for publishers. When you share links on Pearltrees, they show up as little circles called Pearls. Pearltrees launched in December 2009, and it recently enhanced the social aspect with a new teams feature that lets groups of people create Pearltrees collaboratively. Pearltrees has raised 3.8 million euros in funding.
La perle de la réforme du lycée. Pour tester la nouvelle fonctionnalité de Pearltrees, voici ci-dessous l'ensemble des billets que j'ai pu produire sur la réforme qui se met progressivement en place dans le lycée depuis deux ans. Composée de trois sous-perles, vous avez là un panorama non-exhaustif mais assez précis de tout ce qui peut se passer. Tiens, les nouveaux programmes de seconde viennent de paraître. Finalement, les inspecteurs d'histoire-géographie ont été moins loin que ce qu'ils avaient annoncé au départ, mais les choses sont tout de même claires : nous n'avons plus la liberté de choix de nos manières d'aborder les problématiques proposées par les programmes. La première partie nous impose même des documents à traiter avec les élèves (édit de Caracalla par exemple étendant la citoyenneté romaine à tous les habitants de l'Empire). Je vous reparlerai sûrement bientôt de ce changement fondamental de notre manière de travailler et d'enseigner.
Six Startups Blast Off From The Web 2.0 Launchpad Every year at Web 2.0 Expo, a handful of promising startups are invited on stage to give quick, five-minute pitches to an audience of conference attendees and a panel of judges (you can see our past coverage on these events here and here). Yesterday this year’s batch of startups took the stage, and they didn’t disappoint. My notes on the startups are below. Each company was judged by Marshall Kirkpatrick of ReadWriteWeb, Ellen Pack of Elance, and Brian Singerman of Founders Fund. Ask Your Target Market.com A TC DemoPit company that we’ve previously covered, AskYourTargetMarket gives you a way to cheaply conduct market research using online surveys. EnglEasy EnglEasy is as new as they come — the company was just formed a few days ago at Startup Weekend, a hackathon where groups of entrepreneurs and engineers throw together a project in a weekend long frenzy of coding.
