David Beach's Blog: Social Bookmarking - What's The Deal?

mike — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 22:34:50 GMT

David Beech's blog - he bemoans not being able to find a social bookmarking site that is "just right". His complaint about Faves is that we have Amazon Affiliate links (instead of him being able to use his own).

Bluedot.us - Social Bookmarking Gets Even More Social - KillerStartups.com

mike — Fri, 24 Aug 2007 23:21:57 GMT

I just noticed this 3-month old review of Blue Dot on KillerStartups. We're ranked at only "4 killers" right now - help us get higher ranked by clicking on the "+" button on this page.

There's also an "exit survey" on the page where 80% think we'll either go IPO, Be Bought, or Survive (20% think we'll "Bomb").

Quoted: Social bookmarking hasn´t been around for that long, but the market has quickly been filled. BlueDot takes social bookmarking and amplifies it. More than just cataloguing what sites people visit, BlueDot actually aggregates information about what your friends are bookmarking or dotting. BlueDot´s functionality makes it more expansive than other similar sites such as Del.icio.us, as the former takes on a more social networking bent. Members create profiles which also contain information about what pages have been recently Ã¢â‚¬Ëœdotted´ by friends. Members can also find new pals to share their dots with, and it´s easy to use. You simply need to install a BlueDot button in your browser which enables one click Ã¢â‚¬Ëœdotting´. Go crazy with dots, it´s free, and you might learn some new things about your busom buds while you´re at it. <br />
