Clucast Description

Clucast is a Firefox extension that offers the wisdom of crowds- the collective opinions of people about anything and everything Clucast is a Firefox extension that offers the wisdom of crowds – the collective opinions of people about anything and everything displayed on the web. The diversity of opinions in a crowd makes the crowd often more right than any single expert. In his eloquent book entitled “The Wisdom of Crowds”, James Surowiecki explains why the many are smarter than the few and how collective wisdom shapes businesses, societies, and nations. At Clupedia, we refer to the wisdom of crowds as the meta web - a web about the web, built by the people for the people. While we are all drowning in a sea of information on the World Wide Web, the meta web will keep us afloat with the help of clues from crowds. Think of those clues as shortcuts which cut through all that clutter and make the current web much more informative, collaborative, connected, and convenient.Clucast allows you to generate new clues and retrieve existing clues with style. Whether you have an opinion about something (and who doesn’t) or whether you want to get the inside scoop about something (because what you don’t know might hurt you), Clucast sits eagerly in your browser ready to serve you with just one click – no need to go anywhere or search for anything. Clucast is free, fun, informative, even addictive, and yes, lucrative. Clues can be ratings, reviews, recommendations, suggestions, notes, links, favorites, or blogs. They can be expressed in text, and in the future in audio or video. Clues can be public, semi-public, private, or semi-private. One of the unique features of Clucast is the instant spreading of clues – when a clue is generated from somewhere, anywhere, it propagates everywhere. For example, if a Clucaster creates a clue about the “Iraq War” at CNN, that clues can be viewed anywhere on the web where “Iraq War” is displayed. Hence, Clucast instantly diffuses ideas at points of interests.By generating clues, you will:· Help others by sharing your opinion· Contribute to the wisdom of crowds· Earn recognition and notoriety· Establish your online merit· Become famous· Win prizes· Earn some cash By retrieving clues, you will:· Never, ever, be caught clueless· Be “in the know”, which is always cool· Get a second, third, or nth opinion from the crowd· Cut through all that clutter· Boost your surfing habits· Find influencers· Discover some interesting trendsRequirements:· Firefox: 2.0 – 2.0.0.*What's New in This Release:· To help better protect privacy, the toolbar will now disable itself on secure domains(SSL Enabled) and re-enable itself upon leaving.· Enabled support for SeaMonkey, Netscape and Flock in this version.· Various bug fixes and enhancements to optimize performance.
