Gibeo : A new online collaborative tool

Gibeo is a new online collaborative tools who can; annote, share, IM, co-browsing, bookmark and make a RSS feed, for the site pages you surf. After a very simple, fast and free registration you can highlight some text on pages your visiting to share with the Gibeo members or with your own groups of friends. The online tool use a DHtml layer like this...


...to highlight text on the page. It use the suffix ".gibeo.net/" after the domain name to keep track of the site you're surfing. You can also use a javascript bookmarklet on your toolbar. When you see, or your friends, a highlighted portion of text in a page, you simply double-click on it to see what others users have annote in a pop-up window using a chat-like transcript.

This is a beta tool, with a small DHML banner at the bottom of your screen. In future development it will offer you two others registration option without banner and with more enhanced possibilities... A beta online tool to watch closely!
