Browzmi – Browse with me?


Browzmi is the latest social networking plaything. And it’s a browser.

No, it’s not like Flock, the social browser that competes with IE and Firefox. It’s your browser in a browser tool, with built in social networking and sharing features.

 Browzmi Beta

Browzmi provides three panes to work in. The left is the My Stuff section. The center pane is the ‘browser’. The right pane is Explore More. Right and left sections are collapsable, with the center pane expanding to fill the screen space.

My Stuff contains four display choices: My Friends, Surf with Friends, My Favorites, and My Updates. Each of those selections pretty much shows what it’s titled. The Surf with Friends mode shows live updates as your friends navigate to new pages (i.e. friend updates stream).

Explore More also has several display modes: Where is Everyone, Related Photos, Related Videos, Updates on this Page. Where is Everyone displays a list by site of how many of your friends are on each site, and allows you to select that site and see just who is there. Related Photos provides related pictures from Flickr. This updates live as your browse to new pages. Likewise Related Videos does the same while drawing video results from YouTube.

Browzmi Beta - above the browser pane

Above the center pane is the little set of buttons shown above. These are fairly straightforward. Favorite however is where you are prompted to tag a web page. Clip allows you to clip out images. The thumbs up and down show the counts beside them, however I’m not sure how that affects things right now.

    This should be handy for teaching or learning or some degree of collaboration. I like it.
