Bookmarking only goes so far, and that is something Trailmeme proves in the clearest way of all. Basically, this new service will let you create something comparable to a trail of content dealing with any topic that is of interest to you, either for personal or for professional reasons.
This trail of content can be sequenced in the way that works best for you; you can have as many lineal and non-lineal ramifications, and you can end up creating something that resembles a true map of knowledge with data culled from the most disparate sites one could find on the Internet.
These maps of content can be annotated and commented as much as you want, and (what’s even more interesting) you can actually share it all with others, and others can share the trails that they have created with you. When someone shares his own trail, you can “walk it” (IE, read it) in order to learn about any progress that he is making. This is something that will be of great assistance to people who are doing research together, or engaged in any kinds of collaborative process.
And another interesting use of this new technology comes in the shape of the provided plugin for Wordpress. By applying it, you will be capable of reorganizing your blog in more ways than the traditional reverse-chronological order.
A browser plugin is also to be released soon, and (if all goes well) it should let us surf the Web and collaborate like never before. Until it is released, you can check the site as it stands right now and begging getting acquainted with the concept of trails and their every ramification.
Trailmeme.com In Their Own Words
“Trailmeme is a new kind of Web publishing that you can use to create a trail of content on a specific topic that’s interesting to you. You can also read other peoples’ trails and walk them to keep up with any updates they make.
The technology allows you to gather related content from the Web in one place, in an order or sequence that you think helps make sense of it all. Any number of pages can be collected, organized, and annotated in whatever way you think is best. Trails don’t need to go in a straight line, either. You can make a whole map of content from different sites, connecting web content in multiple and meaningful ways.”
