folkd.com browser extensionRight next to the page you are surfing, folkd sidebar serves related content and interactive functionalities like branding, adding tags, notes and audio or recommending the page to your friends or groups.
search engine with "reputation" rankThe folkd search engine crawls only pages that are actually surfed and used by the people. The ranking of a result is determined by its "reputation". Reputation is calculated by measuring who is using, tagging or folking up the content (and the way he does).
action taggingAlready tried to use tagging to insert commands like in a unix shell? With folkd, you can use tags to send items to users or groups, distinguish different contenttypes, structure content, grant access and of course, simply attach a meaning!
folkd is international
Ever noticed that most web 2.0 or social web services are English only - within their interface but also within the content shared. folkd is trying to be more social and integrate all countries and languages. We start with English, German, French and Spanish - more to come.
