If you are
looking for an easy-to-use, elegantly designed, single-purpose, no-download,
nitty-and-gritty, one-row-to-hoe, on-line information harvester, http://www.qb.com/ will get you there. Quickbrowse
creates a very long web-page, composed of whatever links you click on. Click on a lot of
links, and get a very, very long page. All in a row. Updated daily. Create a lot of pages
("metabrowsers"). Build them with the help of online templates, or on your own.
And, most importantly for the CoWorking community, you
can share your collections with anyone in the virtual world.
Brett Schneir of Quickbrowse business development explains how: "After you have
created an account and saved a Quickbrowse collection: Under your list of collections,
CLICK the button marked "edit collections." Then click the link "collection
list - advanced" (toward the bottom of the page). Select the check boxes under the
column heading "make public" (corresponding to the collections you wish to allow
others to view) and CLICK the button marked "update." You can now view a
collection, copy the URL and email it to anyone. " You can even edit the collection -
changing the organization and even the URLs as needed.
All right, it's a little more complicated than having a button that says: "email
this to my group." And registering requires a little more information than I think
proper or necessary. But not too much.
And here's the metabrowser I made out of the links on this page: CoWorking 221, Metabrowsed
