Delicious


Delicious uses a non-hierarchical classification system in which users can tag each of their bookmarks with freely chosen index terms (generating a kind of folksonomy). A combined view of everyone's bookmarks with a given tag is available; for instance, the URL "http://www.delicious.com/tag/wiki" displays all of the most recent links tagged "wiki". Its collective nature makes it possible to view bookmarks added by other users.
Delicious has a "hotlist" on its home page and "popular" and "recent" pages, which help to make the website a conveyor of Internet memes and trends.

Dipity


The time lines can be very useful to graphically represent a string of events. In Dipity can browse more than 20,000 of these lines that others have created, on several themes: actors, music, literature, film, business, science ...
With the mouse you can scroll through the timeline, and by the scroll bar. At the top is a control to adjust the zoom level. Normally, the lines are interactive, and clicking on each of the events will access more information from them, to maps, images, or links to other pages. We offer also the option to embed them in our page or blog.

Prezi

Prezi is a web-based presentation applicationand storytelling tool that uses a single canvas instead of traditional slides. Text, images, videos and other presentation objects are placed on the infinite canvas and grouped together in frames. The canvas allows users to create non-linear presentations, where users can zoom in and out of a visual map. A path through different objects and frames can be defined, representing the order of the information to be presented. The presentation can be developed in a browser window, then downloaded so that an internet connection is not needed when showing the presentation.
Prezi uses the freemium model. Customers who use the free Prezi Public license must publish their work on the Prezi site. Customers who pay for a Prezi Enjoy or Prezi Pro license can create and share private Prezis. Prezi also offers a special education license for students and educators.
