Launching today at DEMO 2008, Iterasi promises to revolutionize social bookmarking for the Web 2.0 world. While sites like del.icio.us and Ma.gnolia allow you to share bookmarks, one of the problems with sharing static URL links is that much of the content of AJAX applications is absent when you return to the site.
Iterasi will launch as a private beta within 30 days with a plug-in for IE 7 and Firefox for Windows, with a Mac version following soon after. I [...]

Back in October I did a review of the AdaptiveBlu's Smartlinks widgets here on Profy. Back then I found the service to have great potential and evidently I was correct. Alex Iskold and the team at Adaptive have expanded the capability and depth of the widgets, which are even now being applied at a rather viral rate by bloggers and site owners. While not a complex tool, Smartlinks is proving that not every great innovation has to be [...]

I tend to keep my eye on about a dozen or so feeds (gathered by Google Reader, if you’re curious to know) every day in order to scrounge up enough fodder for my posts here at Profy. (Si, soy un moocher.) Some of course receive more attention than others.
Case in point: I passed over my subscription to CNET’s Tech News Blog for the first couple of days of the week, and in so doing, missed quite a delectable piece [...]

Diigo.com announced their re-launch today with an information network unlike any we have seen in  scope or capability. The new Diigo network being unveiled at DEMOfall 07 creates global communities around data, information, interests and knowledge. These new communities engage and connect people around the content they collect and use. Diigo is already one of the most useful bookmarking and research sites on the Web. The integration of Webslides and the power of “writing the Web” makes Diigo perhaps the [...]

We received a nice exclusive from Diigo the social bookmarking beta about their latest release WebSlides. This innovation is a browser based player that displays live Web pages with integrated annotation, sticky notes and highlights in an interactive slideshow. With this cool tool users can record and narrate tracks as well as add background music to make compelling shows - and somewhat more. WebSlides is being presented at the Office 2.0 Conference as I write this, so we wanted you to [...]

You may already know from my previous post that I am a big fan of Mister Wong, the already popular in Europe social bookmarking service that has just been out of public beta in English language. If you want to know my opinion, Mister Wong definitely has a chance to get at least some of del.icio.us users away and keep them - for long. When you browse various bookmarks and groups on Mister Wong, you really feel it is populated [...]

Is it interesting to find out a new bookmarking service is launched? You may already know my opinion: I think we already have too many duplicates for most of the web services already. But it is really very interesting to hear news about something that definitely aims directly at del.icio.us and plans to compete with the leader - not with some smaller players in the field. So when I got to know a new social bookmarking service that promises to [...]

Plum is a social networking site that lets users collect and share all manner of digital media. This tastefully done aggregation site jumps into this competitive niche with a great tool called "the Plummer", a toolbar that allows users to add everything from Web pages to local documents and media. Plum is free and currently in private beta, but the essence of Plum is a service that allows a user to collect their favorite aspects of other online services into one [...]

We just got a media preview from Mojiti, a beta I tested back in January. We liked Mojiti back then because it looked to be the premier video annotation innovation of the New Year.  It looks like they have not let us down.
Mojiti will unwrap their latest version next week and our preview really shows even more promise than the original. This is especially true given the number of startups we are seeing pass into oblivion lately. It is fun to [...]
