Forget search. Discovery is the new cocaine. Discoverio makes slideshare homepage
Jul 12th 2008NiaLLLarkinUncategorized
Back in April, I wrote ’search is dead’ and used the phrase ‘discovery is the new cocaine’ a phrase I picked up from the discoverio guys at the Web2.0expo.
Web2 is about participation, but what comes after that? We think it is all about Discovery, the art of helping users serendipitously discover content and people that they did not know they wanted to know. Discovery is what makes people come back again and again, interact, and explore.
So the guys made the slideshare homepage with presentation they gave at SXSW. Its brilliant and insightful and may just change the way you look at things.
