Social Browse: Review

24 September, 2008 (22:26) | Hot News, Social Networks, Useful Websites, marketing | By: User ImageSocialMind

I recently got an invite to the new startup named “Social Browse“.  They’re in private beta at present time, but look like they have made huge progress in going public.

**UPDATE** Ok so my post is pretty timely - they went public just hours after I posted this - go DL the plugin, and follow me on Social Browse!

So what exactly is Social Browse?

Along the lines of StumbleUpon, Social Browse allows you to share a page to your friends, comment on it, see what others are sharing, and basically keep up to snuff on whats hot in your social circle of browsing friends.

Social Browse is powered by a FireFox Plugin that puts 3 simple buttons beside your address bar, allowing you to post, comment or pop open/closed the sidebar feature.

I’ve been using this for about a week now, and quite simply it impresses me - this service could get really big, really quick.  Everything is streamlined to be simple, clean and fast.

Adding some extra profile features and perhaps throw in a few goodies for the social marketers (complimentary social service integration - they do have Twitter so far).

It’s pretty interesting to see what some of the people on there are sharing.  I’ve got the founder of facebook on my friend/fan list - Mark Zuckerberg - Extremely interesting and active user of the service.  How cool is that, browsing the internet with the facebook founder everyday.

Social Browse could be a huge step in the evolution of how we surf online.  The time to gain a foothold in a network like this is now.  Getting in during the beginning stages, using the service as it was designed to be used and creating quality connections is what it’s all about.

    One thing about any of these new communities is the lack of a - well, community. StumbleUpon has a gigantic user base and that is about 80% of the equation. I used to go from Alpha to Beta to launch with 10-15 other collaborative voting sites, but always ended up going back to SU - the others just were not worth it. Let us know if Social Browse breaks that entry barrier.

    Hm, yes, it definitively looks very interesting and promising. The thing i don’t like much is to have Plugin that takes much room on my monitor and browser. And this one takes 1 small and two very big parts of them, so it will have to be very good so i could keep it. But i will give it a try for sure. Thanks for sharing.
