BAAGZ is designed to allow you to discover content on the Web and organize it through customized, visual bookmarks. More important, BAAGZ fosters a collaborative environment where you can connect with others on the Web who share similar interests – whether it be hobbies, travel, music or news –and enhance this content with new ideas, in effect contributing to the expansion of the Web.
Are you a baseball fan? A gourmet cook? An avid alpine skier? A blues lover? Whatever your passion, you can use BAAGZ’ simple, drag-and-drop tools to create a web page (or ‘baag’) for organizing your favorite content.
Leverage the true power of the Internet community by piggybacking on other people’s research. Search their baagz as well the Web. If you find something useful there, add it to your own baag. You can even drag and drop an entire baag into one of your own, and it’ll be automatically updated anytime its owner makes changes. So far so good.
To move from the sidelines to the playing field, mark your own baagz as public so others can learn from you as well. But don’t stop there.
You’re ready to build a true community based on shared interests. Use the “Add friend” feature to establish contact with the owners of your favorite public baagz. As your network grows, add chat and mailbox access for Yahoo! Mail or Gmail to keep in touch more easily. You can also set baagz alerts to be automatically notified of any changes to your network or to friends’ baagz.
That’s it. It’s a simple—and rich—as that.
Now go forth and search, create, share.
