Abstract

This is the sixteenth talk in the AG1 series:

Myspace, Flickr, Netflix and all that - Hot sites and trends on the web

http://www.mpi-sb.mpg.de/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Cool_Websites (seminar wiki)

The (short!) presentations will be very informal and there's lots of interaction with the audience. Rotunda 3rd floor.

----------

quintura (Ingmar) - A visual search engine. A bit like clusty.com, but more interactive. Suggests related terms to explore.
http://www.quintura.com

about (Ingmar) - An impressive collection of "how-to" and other guides. How to paint a room, what are good sub-notebooks, how to sleep well under stress. A top 100 website!
http://www.about.com

techcrunch (Jochen) - TechCrunch is a weblog dedicated to obsessively profiling and reviewing new Internet products and companies. In addition to new companies, they profile existing companies that are making an impact (commercial and/or cultural) on the new web space.
http://www.techcrunch.com

Presentations will be roughly 10 minutes each.
