Now the bad part…….. Secondbrain is the buggiest site I’ve been on in a long time!
My first impression of Secondbrain was not a good one because I kept getting an error message every time I tried to do something such as adding comments, replying to posts, adding bookmarks, etc. And now that they’ve released their beta 2.0 version, everything seems to be even worse!
For instance, I keep trying to add my new WordPress account & it just keeps forwarding me to a page that says “Whoa…! An error occured. Let us know what happened.” & then allows you to send them a message. Well needless to say, my message to them wasn’t too nice!
But who knows, maybe you’ll have better luck!?
They’ve also added a new file upload feature so that you can upload files from your local computer toSecondbrain & share it or put into collections. It looks like Secondbrain is striving to be more than just your typical aggregator, with all the extra-added features.
Now, if I could just make use of all of it, I’d be happy!
Secondbrain offers compelling ways to mix and share content across services. You get a public profile page with a lifestream, and you can share your public content library via tags and collections. You can also subscribe to other peoples’ content updates and comment on each other’s content in dynamic and interactive ways.
Care to try your luck? I really do like the site but in the state that it’s in right now, it’s just not worth my time. I’ll add an update, once it gets better!
