Research Tool For Article Writers
HI, I was just rooting around the interwebs when I came across a neat new tool from Jon Leger who has a knack for making neat tools. The guy has had too much of my money!
Anyway, his latest is called 'Gist' and is a boon for those seeking ideas or research for article writing.
Basically it does one of two thing:
1) It summarises the content of a web page – much like Microsoft Word's 'Summarise' tool. Very neat if you have a long page from which you want to pull bullet points, or read through quickly.
2) This is the big fun thing. With this tool you add keywords to a box, press a button, wait a moment and back comes a series of paragraphs on the topic of your keywords. This is way cool if you are researching a topic or need to turn out a decent article on a topic upon which you are not an expert.
Both tools are free of charge and very handy.
The link for Gist is: http://gistweb.com/
To do summaries just use the tool on the presented page. TO do research click onthe tab marked 'Gist'.
Have fun.
Oh yes, this tool can be used for evil as well as good. I prefer to think of the good and not the evil.
