Tagmmer : un nouveau service web qui mêle Dropbox et Pinterest. Lancée cette année, la start-up française Tagmmer propose depuis aujourd’hui un service web du même nom. Destiné notamment aux étudiants, enseignants et professionnels (bien qu’il pourra intéresser n’importe quel internaute), Tagmmer se propose de mélanger en un seul endroit des outils disponibles sur d’autres services comme Pinterest, Dropbox ou encore Instagram.
Un service pour moins se disperser Après avoir généré un compte sur tagmmer.com, l’utilisateur peut créer des collections (ici appelées des boards) au sein de thèmes (technologie, nourriture, histoire…etc.). L’interface, particulièrement visuelle, est personnalisable avec des images et des titres tandis qu’il est possible de conserver des liens, des images ou encore des vidéos. Pour l’aspect Dropbox, Tagmmer offre 30 Go de stockage pour conserver des documents (PDF, Word, vidéos…etc.) dans le cloud. Tagmmer : réunir les liens web et les fichiers personnels.

Dans le cadre du dossier sur la curation que jai eu le plaisir de coordonner pour la revue Documentaliste et Sciences de linformation de mars 2012 ( ), jai eu loccasion de réaliser un comparatif de 12 solutions dont je vous propose ci-dessous quelques éléments complémentaires. Vous pouvez aussi télécharger cet article au format PDF sur Slideshare Plutôt que de nous concentrer sur les services dont le positionnement marketing est explicitement celui de la curation, nous avons donc choisi de « brasser large » en choisissant des services qui, à minima et sauf exception répondent à la définition proposée par la Wikipedia : « La curation de contenu () est une pratique qui consiste à sélectionner, éditorialiser et partager les contenus les plus pertinents du Web pour une requête ou un sujet donné ».

A Chinese man has been snapping up dozens of domain names related to popular American start-ups and is seeking to trademark some of the names in the US and China. Qian Jin of Nanjing, China, has applied to register marks like Foursquare, Twitter, Quora and Instagram and has also bought dozens of websites like Pinterests.com and Pinterest.de Qian’s activities are described in a lawsuit filed by Pinterest last week in San Francisco.
In its complaint, the popular image site says the defendant is a “serial cyber-squatter who has registered and owns hundreds of infringing domain names.” The company points to Qian’s “Pinterests.com“, a site that uses red-lettering similar to Pinterest but that appears to be just a dumping ground for advertisements. While this type of cyber-squatting has been around for years, the Chinese efforts stand out because they appear to systematically target up-and-coming internet firms, and because of the trademark applications. Pinterest Complaint. The Internet map. The map of the Internet Like any other map, The Internet map is a scheme displaying objects’ relative position; but unlike real maps (e.g. the map of the Earth) or virtual maps (e.g. the map of Mordor), the objects shown on it are not aligned on a surface.
Mathematically speaking, The Internet map is a bi-dimensional presentation of links between websites on the Internet. Every site is a circle on the map, and its size is determined by website traffic, the larger the amount of traffic, the bigger the circle. Users’ switching between websites forms links, and the stronger the link, the closer the websites tend to arrange themselves to each other. Charges and springs To draw an analogy from classical physics, one may say that websites are electrically charged bodies, while links between them are springs. Springs pull similar websites together, and the charge does not let the bodies adjoin and pushes websites apart if there is no link between them. Semantic web The Internet Phenomenon. Cartographie des entreprises et de leurs dirigeants. Clipix Wants To Be A Pinterest For The Real World. Does the world really need another visual bookmarking service?
After all, we already have Pinterest and all of its clones. Clipix, however, believes that it has found a way to differentiate itself from the competition. The service, which is coming out of beta today, feels a bit like a hybrid between Evernote and Pinterest, with a bit of Pearltrees thrown in for good measure. It is a visual bookmarking tool that allows you to save bookmarks (or “clips”, as Clipix likes to call them) in well-organized public and private folders. You can, however, also upload your own photos, office documents and PDF files to the service as well. This mix, as Clipix founder and Wall Street veteran Oded Berkowitz told me earlier this week, is meant to keep the service flexible and allow users to, for example, easily create a folder for all the research they are doing about a purchase, as well as a copy of the warranty after the purchase.

Content Curation Guide for SEO - What, How, Why. The author's posts are entirely his or her own (excluding the unlikely event of hypnosis) and may not always reflect the views of Moz. When it comes to the Internet, I imagine it as the warehouse where the Ark is archived at the end of Indiana Jones – Raiders of the Lost Ark. The Ark is that outstanding content someone has produced and that no other will be able to see again, because it is forgotten and hidden between gazillions of other contents.
Apart from the gigantic volume of pages present in the Internet, for a long time, search spam has been making the discovery of reliable sources difficult; and – let's be honest – Social Media has enhanced this issue, because it added even more noise and dispersion. Actually, as Mitchel Kapor said once, getting information off the Internet is like having a drink from a fire hydrant. To tell the truth, this problem is not new. What is Content Curation? This is especially needed in the Internet era. How to do Content Curation: The Tools Zite Flipboard. Ifttt tool for data journalism. Tool of the week: ifttt, shorthand for “if this then that”. What is it? This tool is still in private beta but it is worth applying for an invitation and waiting to see when it goes public as it promises interesting possibilities for journalists. The best way to understand it is to read this description of ifttt, which explains that the tool works on the premise of “if this then that” or “when something happens (this) then do something else (that)”.
The ifttt site explains it clearly: Here is an example of a task that tweets every new bookmark from my Delicious account tagged “tweet”: The ifttt blog offers further explanation: ifttt isn’t a programming language or app building tool, but rather a much simpler solution. A quick look at ifttt on Twitter will give you a sense of what is happening in the development of the tool. How is it of use to journalists? Similar posts: The Alex Howard Daily on Twitter. UberMedia lance chime.in, un "anti-Twitter" La société UberMedia annonce aujourd'hui le lancement de son propre réseau social, baptisé "chime.in".
Celui-ci veut proposer une alternative à Twitter, mais aussi aux plateformes de blogs plus classiques : en offrant des filtres pertinents pour suivre ses sujets et thèmes favoris, en donnant la possibilité de publier des contenus riches, et en permettant aux éditeurs/annonceurs de gérer entièrement les publicités depuis leur profil. Jusqu'ici, UberMedia était connu pour ses clients Twitter à succès, Echofon et UberSocial : cette dernière application tierce pour terminaux iPhone, Android et BlackBerry avait déclenché une réaction hostile de Twitter en avril dernier. Twitter dénonçait alors une « violation des conditions générales d'utilisation de l'API Twitter » (l'application s'appelait alors UberTwitter), et avait alors suspendu trois applications (iOS et Android) développées par UberMedia, qui menaçaient de « cannibaliser » les revenus publicitaires de Twitter.

Bill Gross wants to take on Twitter, Facebook and Google+ Entrepreneur Bill Gross is already famous in technology circles for developing the search-related keyword advertising model that Google has since made billions by perfecting. Now, he is launching a content-focused social network called Chime.in that will compete not just with Google’s new social platform Google+ but with Twitter and Facebook too, and link-sharing sites like Reddit and Digg as well. Does the world need another social platform for sharing content? Gross says that it does, and that his connections with content companies will help Chime.in succeed — but the odds are stacked against him. Gross may be well known to some as the guy who created the first version of Ad Words, which he did at a company called GoTo — later renamed Overture, and eventually acquired by Yahoo for $1.6 billion in 2003.
To add insult to injury, Gross reportedly tried to buy the Twitter app Tweetdeck, only to have Twitter buy the company instead.

Quels sites sont les plus sociables sur Facebook ? L'iPad devrait dominer les tablettes tactiles jusqu'en 2014. La dernière étude du cabinet américain Gartner montre que le marché des tablettes connait un boom, et qu'il est largement dominé par l'iPad d'Apple. 63 millions de tablettes seront vendues en 2011, contre 17 millions en 2010.
Apple fait la course en tête avec 73% des parts de marché cette année, connaissant malgré tout une baisse de 10 points par rapport à l'année dernière. Et cela ne devrait pas s'arrêter tout de suite puisque le cabinet prévoit que les ventes atteindront 326 millions d'unités en 2015 et qu'Apple serait leader en conservant au moins 50% de parts de marché jusqu'en 2014. De quoi donner du courage à Tim Cook, le nouveau PDG d'Apple en remplacement de Steve Jobs, qui doit annoncer de nouveaux produits dans les prochains jours. Aucune tablette Android n'est donc venue inquiéter l'iPad jusqu'ici. Facebook, le réseau qu'on aime détester - M Magazine.
How Amazon Controls Ecommerce (Slides) When you think about ecommerce, you think about Amazon. But how did a company that started with online books come to dominate an estimated one third of ecommerce in the U.S.? In the 72 slides above, global consulting boutique faberNovel breaks down Amazon’s business and strategy. The keys to Amazon’s success are 1) the Internet imposes no limits on how much Amazon can sell; 2) its control of customer accounts and loyalty, and 3) and a growing ecosystem that is helping it cement its place in the world of digital goods as well. It’s instructive to see how Amazon has expanded over the years and moved away from its reliance on books, music, and movies.
The slides are a real deep dive into Amazon’s business model and future prospects. Une vidéo de 3 minutes pour entrer dans l'univers des Creative Commons. Pour faire référence à un récent (et édifiant) billet, si j’avais été à la place du conférencier de Calysto, j’aurais peut-être commencé pour montrer aux élèves la ressource ci-dessous que nous venons de sous-titrer. Il s’agit d’une vidéo de présentation des Creative Commons. Et nous ne sommes plus alors dans un « Internet de tous les dangers » mais dans un « Internet de tous les possibles ». Pas de risque alors que les élèves en concluent qu’il faille « arrêter de vivre et interdire Internet ». Ce sera alors plutôt l’envie de participer qui prédominera.

Former Myspacers Build Link Curator ‘Tagging Robot’ Former VP of Product at Myspace Todd Leeloy and Myspace Product Manager Joe Munoz have launched a semantic tagging network and link curation service today called Tagging Robot. Tagging Robot currently crawls your Facebook newsfeed and separates your links based on topics, as well as giving you relevant topics data for each link. Tagging Robot uses NLP and Machine Learning to build users a topic-centered profile, and uses your Facebook Interests and Social Graph to populate the page. What you immediately see on your profile is a list of recommended links (based on followed topics), a list of all links shared recently by your network and your favorites (which you track by clicking the <3 symbol next to each link).
In addition to pulling from your Facebook Interests, you can follow topics on Tagging Robot by clicking on the “plus” or “minus” sign next to the link topic. You can sign up for the beta here.

Don’t spend money on marketing, do offer flexibility and data exporting to eliminate buyers’ regret, make sure to capitalize on and value goodwill, and only charge for things that are hard to do. That’s what some startups say is the key to success in the freemium business. But the biggest reason the five presenters this morning at the Freemium Summit in San Francisco — Pandora, Dropbox, Evernote, Automattic (see disclosure at the bottom) and MailChimp — are doing well is because they have great products that people want.
They’ve been able to get those products to a broad audience by using the freemium model — that is, offering a free service with the option to upgrade. It’s an increasingly important business model, but one that’s hard to navigate, so their anecdotes, open sharing of data, and lessons learned were really valuable.

On Thursday, I used Yobongo all day, which helped me find a new lunch spot, run into an old friend, and meet a Yobongo co-founder.
That afternoon, I thought it would be a good time to write about the new group and mobile messaging wars for TechCrunch. A few hours later, Color Labs launched, to put it mildly. And, as I was editing this post on Friday night, Disco appeared, the new group messaging client from Google. Along with SxSW and the NCAA basketball tournament, this is surely March Madness. What does this explosion in mobile social apps mean. Only within the last year have things started to really gather steam. Simultaneously, others began building mobile messaging applications, some with social ambitions in mind. It’s early days for this new class of mobile messaging upstarts.
