Tumblr 101: Tips And Tricks To Get Started
Sebastian Thrun: Google's Driverless Car
Eluma: Desktop RSS reader, bookmark manager, and more
But the desktop application is just one part of Eluma. There are also browser toolbars available for Firefox and Internet Explorer that make it easy to add feeds to Eluma with the click of a button. If a page doesn't have an RSS feed, or if you just want to mark a single web page, not a feed, you can click the flag button to save an individual page to your account.
Using Eluma, you can tag items to make them easy to find later. You can also rate items, set up desktop alerts that will pop up whenever there's a new item in your feed, and share items with other users.
Eluma launched as a private beta this morning, but you can request an invitation at Eluma's web page. Check out a video walkthrough of the Eluma interface after the break.

Hi Brad,
Thanks for the mention! Eluma is trying to simplify the way people manage all their online information. But in addition to the personal productivity features you mention, Eluma also lets you share collections of content with another person, a group, or with the entire Eluma community, and create discussions around content and collections that have been shared.
We think it's alot like iTunes for your web stuff, with some (optional) social sharing and discovery features. If you want to keep all your stuff private, you can. If you want to share some, you can do that too.
As you mentioned, we went into a private beta today, and we're taking requests at http://www.eluma.com/site/BetaSignup.aspx
Thanks again for the mention.
Best,
Joe Lichtenberg
