The Web in Real Time – Wiki Stlye!
Posted by ISP Media on October 5, 2009
Is this where the real time web is heading?
Google explains Sidewiki in an email:
“Sidewiki enables users who have installed Google Toolbar to contribute information alongside any page on the web, inside of a simple sidebar UI. This information, which can include text entries, links, and embedded videos, will be ranked by quality and community ratings. For instance, on a site about a specific beach town, a user could add a relevant YouTube video showing local attractions.
Once users opt in to the feature, theyll be able to view annotations contributed by other users within a browser sidebar, and can choose to hide the sidebar at any time. Google Sidewiki also wont change the appearance of any webpage ” all Sidewiki entries will be displayed only in the sidebar.”
