fidgt

my magnetic tag test for website. not fidgt related.






one way and it's follow the leader.
fidgt seems to be enabling new ways of navigating and connecting users. it reminds me of a concept I developed on a site based around magnetic tagging last year. the idea being that the site built a profile of your preferences on content and as you entered the site content and users would be attracted to your presence. A bit like debris floating in orbit as the client said.

The larger discussion is that content providers especially news sites need to push this to a new way of digesting content. Diagramatic and abstract ways of navigating information is surely the way forward. There was a alt. internet browser back in 1997 that looked very similar although much more basic, it used circles and connecting lines to show links from web sites all in a beautiful interface. Can't remember what it was called, if you know post it for me.
