What do you know about Pearltrees? Well until this year I hadn't been aware of pearltrees; but it is quite impressive.
Pearltrees...
is a new visual bookmarking tool utilizing a mind map-like interface to help users organize their web page shortcuts in a much more intuitive way than the typical browser bookmark list; and
enables users to connect with other users who share similar interests, which places pearltrees in the same camp as other social bookmarking tools.
I'm an eLearning Adviser specializing in stimulating and supporting innovation in learning via eBooks, eMagazines, blogs (including audio versions), online TV, interactive resources, forums, workshops, conferences and face2face consultations. Evaluating and becoming familiar with sustainable and new technologies allows me to respond to the needs of learning providers from a position of experience rather than 'hearsay'. Supported learning providers, in the northwest of England (UK), can contact me for FREE consultations. Based at Lancaster University I work for the JISC Regional Support Centre - Northwest.
