I remember the days when I thought bookmarks were cool: wow, I never have to spend all that time finding and re-finding the sites I care about. And that’s still true, but only when you think about web sites rather than web pages. For example, I bookmarked sites like the New York Times, but then, when I would find a specific article that I liked, I would also bookmark it.

Pretty quickly, my list of bookmarks grew and became pretty unmanageable. So I created subdirectories, which at first helped somewhat, but also became too tough to keep track off. And it was a lot of work. What finally made me give up this labor intensive way of keeping stuff organized, was when I started to import and export bookmarks from my desktop to my laptop and vice-versa.

Enter: SemantiFind. For virtual clutter bugs like me, SemantiFind is the perfect tool for archiving and retrieving information I like and rely on. All I need to do is roughly remember what I was searching for, and the right web page shows up right on top of my results.

Sharing some of these individual pages with friends or people with similar interest is another feature that I find useful. It reminds me of the Apple’s iTunes Genius: if I like this page, I’m likely to like that page, which like-minded people think is useful. It’s like my personal web library, organized by topics I care about.
