Curation Becomes Social: Pearltrees Launches ‘Team’ Version [For much of this year I have been working with Pearltrees, which offers a visual web site curation service based on the visual metaphor of ‘pearls’ please see below for an example.] Pearltrees this week launched a “Team” version of its curation service that allows groups of people to collaborate on curating a topic. Up until now each Pearltree was the responsibility of one person. Alexia Tsotsis at Techcrunch reported: Ideally this goes down as such: You really care about fashion so you search for fashion in the Pearltrees search box and are confronted with really elaborate visual cluster displays of fashion blogs, each blog its own “pearl.” Pearltrees is part of a growing number of companies that offer curation services. mited in what you can curate, such as curating just Tweets. In addition, pre-fetching of web site content means that it is possible to browse a Pearltree faster than surfing from site to site.

Visualized: the real Android fragmentation It's been staring you in the face all this time. The Android fragmentation that not only threatens, but dooms Google's mobile OS: the buttons are always in different places. How will we ever cope? [Thanks, Drummertist] Comments What does INRIA do for SMEs? - INRIA & SMEs - Innovation - INRIA - The french National Institute for Research in Computer science and Control What role do SMEs play in Inria's strategy? Eric Horlait: Technology transfer at a business involves the integration of a result of public research into its product or service offering. Inria's priority in this matter is to support the growth of SMEs and medium-size companies through technology transfers, whether they stem from Inria or not. Why this priority? Eric Horlait: It starts with the acknowledgement of the role of SMEs in the knowledge economy: these companies are drivers of innovation in the digital industry and, because of their agility, particularly effective vehicles of technology transfers for the purposes of enriching their commercial offering and increased competitiveness. What does Inria offer to SMEs? What are these tools to support technology transfers to SMEs? Eric Horlait: Inria first relies heavily on two public plans that seem key to us. However, Inria has also deployed its own tools to the various links of the technology transfer chain.
Pearltrees Launches New TEAM Feature at LeWeb10 « Humanity+ on the Radical Technological Changes That Will Redefine Humanity | Main | Google Chrome Cupcakes » December 08, 2010 Pearltrees Launches New TEAM Feature at LeWeb10 Pearltrees, a leading curation tool, launched a new team feature at LeWeb10 in Paris this week. With Pearltrees “Team” release, curating content becomes social and immediate and curation becomes a playful, social activity. Amidst blogger, podcaster, media and entrepreneur activity and panel discussions today in LeWeb's towering halls (3 in total -- separated by a snow and sleet storm) at a place called Les Docks in the northern part of Paris, Pearltrees' CEO Patrice Lamothe and his team demoed Pearltrees Team to attendees, which they also showed on a touch screen. The number of possible uses for Pearltrees Team is virtually infinite: Journalists can now team up to curate public interest topics such as the Wikileaks pages to share them with the world. Pearltrees Team has a number of key features that makes it unique:
The Dogs of Cyber War Visualized Intellectual Ventures Home tsr.ch - Info - Le blog télécoms de Xavier Studer Si l'exemple de paper.li peut donner l'impression d'être une énième tentative de tirer parti des réseaux sociaux, il est intéressant de constater que cette vague n'a pas fini de déferler. Pour la deuxième année consécutive, Pearltrees a, par exemple, présenté son concept de "favoris visuels" lors de l'édition 2010 du sommet LeWeb à paris. Par défaut publicL'idée est de pouvoir découvrir de nouvelles pages internet en comparant ses liens avec ceux des autres. C'est d'ailleurs cette idée qui est intéressante. tumbup pour ses restosUne autre tentative de tirer profit de la force des réseaux sociaux est celle de tumbup, un peu comme le service suisse de madeinlocal. Pour l'instant, ce produit présente des informations géolocalisées sur Google Maps. Et Super MarmiteUn peu dans la même veine, les Français de Super Marmite proposent un site collaboratif organisé autour de plats cuisinés. Xavier Studer, Paris

mellowtigger: pearltrees I was trying to organize my many website bookmarks into a comprehensible structure. Then my motherboard died, I reinstalled the operating system, and I lost my many unsaved bookmarks. *sigh* I was looking into free products to help me backup my bookmarks and access them even from other pcs. Pearltrees allows me to store my bookmarks on their server but also to organize the bookmarks into visual 2D structures with nodes branching out from other nodes. Sadly, the add-on leaves the browser in a totally un-browser-like state. (for the Firefox add-on) (for my core node) Hint: "new pearltree" will add an empty placeholder node for your tree, while "new pearl" will connect a website address to the node. Does anyone know a product that works similarly (organize, backup, and share websites)? My tonsils are swollen and sore tonight, although my temperature is barely apparent.
Should You Work for Free? Merseburg History[edit] Pre-history and Middle Ages[edit] Merseburg was first mentioned in 850. King Henry the Fowler built a royal palace at Merseburg; in the 933 Battle of Riade, he gained his great victory over the Hungarians in the vicinity. 17th Century to 20th Century[edit] From 1657 to 1738 Merseburg was the residence of the dukes of Saxe-Merseburg, after which it fell to the Electorate of Saxony. Merseburg is the site where the Merseburg Incantations were rediscovered in 1841. At the beginning of the 20th century, Merseburg was transformed into an industrial site, largely due to the pioneering work done by Carl Bosch and Friedrich Bergius, who laid down the scientific fundamentals of the catalytic high-pressure ammonia synthesis from 1909 to 1913. Merseburg was badly damaged in World War II. Briefly part of Saxony-Anhalt after the war, it was then administered within the Bezirk Halle in East Germany.

From Webslides to Pearltrees Each week in class I pick a few of my students’ blog posts for discussion and string the links together in a list like a slide show of web pages. As discovered by a colleague I have been using Webslides from Diigo for this task over the last 12 weeks. Using the Diigo bookmarklet I can quickly capture the current page link into a Diigo group. Each Diigo group has a link to the start of the webslides presentation – example here. The links are quick to gather but there are few niggles: by default the web pages change every 10 seconds during presentation – not ideal for use in classwebslides caches the pages leading to a slow start-up, and an annoying overlay at the top of each page reminds the viewer that the page is cached and not live; an extra click is needed to remove the message The first niggle is fixed by changing the settings for each webslides group, which naturally I don’t always remember to do before use.

Infographic of the Day: Do Smarter People Make More Money? | Co.Design We all know, at least vaguely, that a better education leads to better prospects in life. But is that really true? A superb map created by GOOD shows that it is -- but thanks to the ingenuity of the map design, it also manages to reveal a good deal more about the links between education and money. The map is actually quite unintuitive, but once you get the hang of it, it's amazing. What's fascinating is that these three maps are laid over each other -- and thus the color combinations become the really important thing to look for. [Click for full-sized version] Now, let's back up. But two colors you see a lot of are pinks and deep blues. And two final notes: There are some tiny pockets of the U.S. where decent money is made without very high rates of education -- these are shown in the places that are blue.
