New project - wists.com, visual bookmarks plus

Will post more shortly - such as what features will be adding. My new project is called Wists.
Have a play, mail me If you like it or don’t like it.

The idea is to bridge the gap between blogging and bookmarking.
It aims to make simple list blogging as easy as bookmarking and make bookmarking take advantages of weblog publishing, with automatic thumbnail image creation etc.

Like Newsblogger (which we worked on at Moreover in conjunction with Blogger to create aggregated bloggable news content) in addition to bookmarking, Wists aggregates content from online stores link to directly.

Wists is simple to start with but the ongoing aim is to treat thumbnails as an image equivalent of a headline and slowly evolve a tool for managing and syndicating image headlines.

(Basically we built it because I am really lazy, I like pictures and hate writing and it takes lots of clicks to blog thumbnails.)
