Interviews about Scoop.it during #Leweb conference

The Scoop.it team attended the leading tech european event last week, Leweb. As we’re in private beta, our objective was to get as much feedback as possible and meet key people from the tech industry. Goal 100% achieved, and even more as we got “as a bonus” a few interviews. Each time it’s Guillaume Decugis who speaks, the CEO of Goojet, the company behind Scoop.it

Scoop.it as a collaborative tool

YES Scoop.it is topic-centric, but BUT we can’t forget that it’s first of all a social media.

The main difference with the others social media is essential: Scoop.it lets users follow topics, not people. Scoop.it brings you content on topics you’ve decided to follow, shared by other people on these topics. People we meet are users who are willing to discuss about the same subjects. What gather people together are their passions! We don’t always share our passions with our friends: especially if they are unusual. Your interest about the Chinese culture may not be shared with your best friend!

Who’s the boss?!

From the very beginning of the creation of a topic, the user is deciding everything: your topic is your baby!

  • First, when you create your own topic, you set up content sources related to it. These sources could be Twitter, Flickr, Youtube, Digg, Google… But be selective: you won’t make your life easier by piling up dozens of so-so sources!

Why this could be the moment for the curators

Over the past few months, there’s been an interesting number of new developments with regards to Web Curation, following several predictions that this would be come a hot topic or even a “billion dollar opportunity“.

But the truth is: most people don’t have time for that, it’s complex… and we don’t have a fantastic subject in mind from Monday to Tuesday.

Why is a topic with Scoop.it different to a blog?
