Challenge 5 - Curate Resources using Pearltrees If you listened to the episode of the Instructional Tech Talk podcast that discussed curating content in the classroom you know how valuable curating resources can be both with students and for your own resources. Social bookmarking has become a huge activity – spreading many genres and via many platforms. It has revolutionized the way in which we share and find information. Like I mentioned, there are many ways to participate in social content curation and each way looks a little different. For the purpose of this challenge, we will be using the popular curation tool Pearltrees to begin our content curation adventure. Don’t worry – it is easy, fun, and extremely addictive. Pearltrees is a way to store all the websites you use on a regular basis (and even the ones that you won’t use again for 2 years) to allow for instant reference. The Challenge Create a Pearltrees account and start curating resources. How to Complete the Challenge 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
Pearltrees s’offre une refonte graphique Force est de constater que ce service est certes bien connu en France mais aussi très apprécié et utilisé aux États-Unis comme dans le monde entier (les articles chez TechCrunch et consorts parlent d’eux même). Et puis il suffit de regarder les chiffres du service : 2 millions d’utilisateurs par mois et 50 millions de perles créées au total. Rien que ça. Cette refonte de Pearltrees améliore sensiblement le confort de navigation, avec une interface toujours aussi propre qui intègre désormais des fonds d’écran pour illustrer parfaitement le sujet et apporter en même temps une touche graphique intéressante et des perles toujours plus réalistes qui rendent le concept très ludique et intéressant. Les contributeurs, eux, pourront profiter des nouveaux outils de personnalisation afin de mettre en scène facilement leurs intérêts sur leurs profils respectifs. aller sur Pearltrees
Organize The Best Of The Web In Your Own Visual Library On Pearltrees [Chrome] Advertisement Content curation is the talk of all digital marketers. For many people it’s still a mystery. So, what is content curation and how can you do it properly? The main reason people talk highly about content curation is that it’s a very effective way of sharing your insights and opinions, while also showing your followers the thought leaders you admire and pay attention to. It saves you from having to come up with all the ideas yourself, and stops you looking like you only ever share your own content. You might also consider content curation as a tool for your own education. Consider that you have a real interest in gardening, and you have many followers across all sorts of social media that want to learn more about gardening. You need to keep sharing useful information with your audience in a useful way.

Pearltrees beautifies curation with Botticelli Pearltrees is routinely used to embed data related to a particular topic in a way that is easy to navigate. The platform - which went live in 2009 - currently counts more than two million active users and over 50 million pearls, which can best be described as pieces of digital content. Today, Pearltrees is rolling out Botticelli, which company spokesperson Oliver Starr told TG Daily can best be described as a new version of the platform that transforms organized collections into beautiful illustrated libraries. "Pearltrees users will now have beautiful full screen backgrounds that illustrate each pearltree, making the product more beautiful and easier to navigate. The new backgrounds provide context for each pearltree, resulting in much more immersive navigation from interest to interest," he explained. "Highly realistic pearls now allow users to play with and dive into content in an entirely new way. The new release is available immediately for the iPad and iPhone as well as on the web.
Pearltrees - a collaborative web curation tool Pearltrees (iPad app, myös: PC ja Mac) Entäpä jos nettisivut olisivat pieniä pallukoita, joita voisit ryhmitellä mielin määrin? Voisit selata jokaista ryhmää erikseen tai siirtyä haluamallesi sivulle yhdellä painalluksella. Tieto olisi kaikille avointa ja sitä voitaisiin jäsennellä myös yhdessä. Pearltrees tekee tämän mahdolliseksi. Muuta nettisivut (tai kuvat tai muistiinpanot) "helmiksi" ja luo omia "helmipuita", joiden sisällön ja muodon päätät itse. Mielestäni Pearltrees on erinomainen ohjelma mm. web curation -toimintaan helpon käyttöliittymänsä ansiosta. P.S. Pearltrees overhauls its collaborative library app with new "Boticelli" release • Rude BaguetteRude Baguette Today, Pearltrees announced a new version of their collaborative library will be released soon. Available on iPad and iPhone for free, the app “transforms organized collections into beautiful illustrated libraries.” The self-proclaimed largest collaboratively library is currently home to 50 million web pages organized into 6 million pearltrees. Pearltrees also had a premium version for $4.99, which they rolled out last October. The release, which will come soon, will include an overhaul to the design and interface including full screen backgrounds, more realistic pearls, and a suite of customization tools (reusable images, galleries, improved zooming, etc.). With this new release, we focused on the visual potential of Pearltrees to let people dive deeply into their interests and nearly feel them. Since the companies founding in 2009, it has raised over 8 Million euro from investors, and has been seen as one of the more ambitious startups in Paris.

Pearltrees - Et si on se passait de Google? Internet est-il devenu si riche qu'on doive maintenant repenser la façon d'y naviguer efficacement? C'est ce que croient les fondateurs de Pearltrees, un site web permettant d'organiser et de conserver ses contenus d'intérêt sous forme d'arborescence virtuelle, tel un «arbre de perles». Créé en 2010, le site est aujourd'hui en version 1.0 depuis novembre. Deux millions de contributeurs collectionnent et échangent déjà leurs perles d'intérêt. Pour Patrice Lamothe, PDG et cofondateur de Pearltrees, la création de son site est davantage liée à la nécessité d'utiliser de nouveaux outils qu'à la saturation du contenu. «Je ne crois pas qu'internet soit saturé, c'est la grande utopie d'ailleurs: ce n'est jamais trop grand. Patrice Lamothe considère qu'il y a eu une évolution du type de contenu sur internet. Vers un web 2.0? Un site comme Pearltrees, qui s'appuie sur le partage du contenu illustre très bien selon moi la notion sociale vers laquelle on tend de plus en plus. Tout le monde s'y met

The updated application is available for the iPad and the iPhone and on the web.
Organizing Online Content With Pearltrees While on the Traveling Geeks trip to Paris, we had the opportunity to meetup with a French company called Pearltrees. This was our first stop on what was a busy day meeting an exciting group of French companies. Beyond hearing about the companies, I was just happy that I made it on and off the Paris Metro without losing my ticket. Pearltrees is a collaborative way to share interests online. Here’s the process I followed to explore Pearltrees: While on the Traveling Geeks trip I decided to use Pearltrees to organize some of the posts about our trip to Paris (I plan to add more): After returning to California, I went back to my Pearltree to find a picture to use on my post of the Traveling Geeks group meeting. Not finding the pictures I wanted in my own Flickr set, I then searched Pearltrees for more Traveling Geeks content and found Pearltree stories in English. I could of also found that Pearltree via a Google search for Traveling Geeks. “Traveling geeks !!!!
Collecter des info c’est bien… les partager c’est mieux ! Après avoir réalisé votre veille et collecté les informations les plus intéressantes, vient le temps d’organiser vos connaissances pour les partager plus facilement. S’il existe une multitude d’outils pour y parvenir (Diigo notamment), j’ai (re)découvert un super service pratique, intuitif et au look sympa (et Français), j’ai nommé Pearltrees. Ce n’est pas un nouveau venu dans la galaxie Internet puisque Pearltrees a ouvert en mars 2009. Il permet de sauvegarder ses signets, qu’on appelle (Pearl) dans des branches qui forment ensuite des arbres (Trees). Un moyen simple, facile et ludique pour à la fois archiver des informations, les organiser, les trier et les partager. Utilisé dans des contextes très différents (éducation, veille, organisateur d’idée), Pearltrees est, pour moi, plus qu’un outil de curation et se positionne plutôt comme un mélange entre le social bookmarking et le mind mapping. Intuitif et collaboratif Le côté collaboratif est largement présent.
