Httpfuse provides a cool bookmarking service

July 30, 2008 · Posted in Default 

httpfuse is a great new, topic based social bookmarking service based out of Hyderabad. The idea is simple. Bookmarks are grouped by topics. As an example, consider a subject like MySQL. Instead of a personal bookmarking service like Delicious, httpfuse aggregates all user bookmarks (or links) related to MySQL. See the below screenshot for an example. Links are nicely categorized under various topics related to MySQL.

On the surface, the service appears no different than some of the other content discovery services like Delicious, StumbleUpon, Mahalo, Wikipedia etc. However, once you give the service a spin, the differences become apparent.  Think of httpfuse to be like Wikipedia, only difference being that instead of housing the content itself, it has links to interesting content elsewhere.

The Magnolia groups feature is something similar to what httpfuse is offering. The same can also be accomplished by searching for the topic on Delicious. None the less, httpfuse is a pretty neat and on the whole an awesome product. It offers an interesting twist to the ’social’ bookmarking scenario.

Do try it out and let me know what you think.

    “…..based out of Hyderabad….”

    Does this mean that it is actually based “in” Hyderabad, and not some place “out of” Hyderabad?
