Thanks for the info and comment. To be honest I surfed by and read some about stuff and then read two reviews of stikis. I know that was not completely fair, and I will give it a more serious look when time permits. Please understand that about half the time anyone writes about a service - there is someone who swears on the almighty that it is just like something else that was created in ancient Rome. We do our best without becoming obsessive. I will check it out though and even review it should there be a good comparative review there. Thanks again for your input man! Always Phil Hi Rick!

To say that it is a stickie note service is not correct, maybe the site name is misleading but it is not a simple stickie note service. It has all the interconnective communication features that diigo touts, and had it a year ago. You need to download the firefox extension and use it to see and understand how it works, it's just as rich as diigo. It has advanced from the point that Techcrunch talks about it here: <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2006/11/28/stickis-launches-syndicated-web-note-taker/" rel="nofollow">TechCrunch on Stickis</a>. It's an advanced service that some people just can't grok, as Rafe Needleman from Webware describes: But this is a really interesting idea. It links Web sites together by content automatically, sort of like Sphere and YooNo. And I love the idea of the portable expert: With Stickis, you can take your favorite bloggers with you wherever you go on the Net. That's just incredibly cool. The service could stand to lose some of its advanced features in the name of not confusing the heck out of its users, but the underlying idea is powerful.

Uh - well, Diigo is a complete suite of tools that include the ability to add sticky notes. So I guess the difference is sort of like that of a car tire versus the whole car. :) Stickis is cute and useful while Diigo is a serious research and monetization tool - plus. I hope this helps some. I do not mean to sound curt but the article describes quite a bit more than adding stickies for friends, and I know alludes to much more. Check out Webslides and Diigo, as anything short of working with these types of developments will leave the user wondering. Always, Phil B. Hi Rickdog!

These aggregated presences are fully functional - negating the need to travel to or share via fragmented links. A user on Zude can simply direct friends at their Zude pages to show off whatever they have created or like web-wide. In the humble screens I provided it is easy to see my Stumble Upon pages inside my latest Zude creation. Zude is another powerful "web within a web" in line with Diigo's Webslides which I reviewed earlier.

Check this out: we have created a WebSlides for all the presenting companies at this conference and their alexa traffic charts. http://slides.diigo.com/list/techdude/demofall2007_alexa Playing it allow you to quickly visit all the companies and see their latest Alexa ratings. Not just live webpages, note that you can annotate on those pages on the fly as well! Wouldn't it be fun to use this to quickly check which company has generated the most buzz after the conference :-) Thanks for your prompt coverage of Diigo.

The 3D aspect being utilized here I think will be the underpinning to the Web3D.0 experience! Hey did I just coin a New Term!! ;)) Twitter also released an exciting 3D Visualization Tool called Blocks. My Fave Bookmarking story tho goes back to Ma.gnolia + NOT being able to FIND IT!! I searched everywhere but needless to say i fergot the Period* Cheers!! Billy ;)) Peace* I’ve always liked Diigo + it’s ability to Annotate Web Pages yer Bookmarking.
