TinkrBox

TinkrBox is an interesting new site that I first heard about on Larry Ferlazzo's excellent blog. It is a place where users can collect links and label/tag them. However, it also adds tangible content to your links as well. For example, if you paste in a URL for an image it puts the image in a box and lets the user label it. This works the same for other types of media as well.



Ideally, I can see a person using this to collect different kinds of media and share/tag it in one place. It also has built in FB/Twitter integration so makes it easy for sharing to other users.

Wikify

Wikify is a new site I learned about from Jennifer Dorman's great blog. This is a place where you paste in your text and it auto-generates links to Wikipedia. It is very easy to do and is ideal if you wanted to create your own online encyclopedia/dictionary.

Below is a pic of the Wikify process in action.



Below is a pic of the result after using Wikify to create links to Wikipedia (talk about a time saver).
