Twine

I'm on the waiting list for this new tool. But I want it now!

"...Twine is a place to organize information you find or create on the Web—bookmarks, notes, videos, photos,contacts, tasks. (A Web browser plug-in makes it easy to save stuff to your Twine wherever you may find it on the Web). You can also share that information with a private group or publicly. Once you ingest in all the information you want to organize, Twine applies a semantic analysis to it that creates tags for each document or video or photo. The tags match up to concepts that Twine’s algorithms associate with each piece of content, regardless of whether that concept is specifically mentioned in the Web page or other content being tagged. For example, you might bookmark this post and Twine would create tags for all the people mentioned in it (Nova Spivack, Paul Allen, Peter Rip, and Ron Conway). It would also create tags for the organizations related to the post, such as Radar Networks and DARPA, but also Paul Allen’s venture firm Vulcan Capital—even if Vulcan was never mentioned in the post."

IT DOES THE TAGGING FOR YOU!!! I love this and I haven't even tried it yet. Want to know more? See the TechCrunch Post that talks about it. Or get on the waiting list your self at Twine. This might be a better information sharing tool for the librarians as a group than this blog...

Calming down now and going back to working on SFX...
