Secondbrain - All Your Content

Our mission is to help people manage their content online and create the biggest library of user generated content in the world. Secondbrain is social, collaborative, available, unlimited, easy to use, cloud backup, ads collective value and builds online identity.

People use various internet services to create content libraries across the Web. Secondbrain has been designed to aggregate this knowledge and data into the most powerful personal content platform imaginable. Secondbrain utilizes cutting edge technology to enhance the management, socialization and personalization of online content.

Secondbrain simplifies and refines the way users collect, organize, share and discover content on existing internet-services. We also create value for existing online services by accelerating adoption of their services and creating stronger connections between them and their users. In effect, Secondbrain provides powerful tools to discover and manage content, discover highly relevant content through others and to discover other people through content. Secondbrain's ultimate vision is to become the place for All Your Content.

Secondbrain - People and Knowledge Growing Together

Personalization: We offer a simple way for you to organize and collect content from existing online services and an interface for adding new content advanced bookmarking. When you create an account at S|B you get a simple interface to collect, organize and search content. We are a home for all your content that adds value by offering convenience and peace of mind.

Socialization: We offer 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. Socializing around content transforms simple data into an interactive knowledge base for you and all other users.

Services: If you are an active web user you probably have accounts on various social networks and other Internet services. You are also probably more active on some networks than on others. This leads often to loss of valuable content. When you connect a service to your S|B library you will have a better overview of all your online content and the relationships between you and the web services you use less often will remain active over time.

The Collective: We help people discover good content. All public content from the personal libraries is aggregated into a collective library. Anybody can explore this library and smart algorithms will be applied to recommend you the best content. Value is added through our ability to help you find relevant people and content. In this way S|B becomes both a suggestion engine and a refined human filtered knowledge matrix.

Global Reach: Over time, as our user base and content library grows, we will have a smart index of human-organized online content. The public Secondbrain library is open and easily indexed by popular search engines. As a result your own Secondbrain library will become more popular and send more traffic to all your content and bookmarks.

This makes Secondbrain a powerful source of relevant content and creates value in the public domain.

The S|B platform promotes not only personal knowledge building, but a communal knowledge filtering and suggestion. In a real very real sense, S|B provides a platform where important questions can be answered collectively. The resulting knowledge base is a library where the best and most relevant answers can be discovered and utilized by users - this is the goal of S|B, to engage people with highly relevant and usable content.
