I thought Cool Iris was an application that meant I’d get a mini-link open whenever I ran my cursor over one. It’s kind of annoying, I find.

But then, presumably, I’m further behind the times than everyone.

Thanks for the review Trevor, glad you found the concept behind Pixsta useful. Certainly we hope to have more product information appear before the summer.

On a separate note relating to Visual Search, its important to bear in mind the distinction between those companies that allow the user to ‘Search Visually’ i.e. CoolIris and those companies that have real ‘Visual Search’ technology (where the image is the query) such as Like.com, Pixsta.co.uk, Idée.

Thanks again for the feedback,
Steve (Pixsta)

Philistine! It’s err, hmm, pretty?! Good point, well made ;o)

Visual online does have it’s uses. Suggest http://www.mindmeister.com, http://www.gliffy.com and http://www.conceptshare.com as a few interesting ones

And http://www.vizthinklondon.com if you fancy coming to meet other visual folks ;o) Next one’s this week – alas I’ll miss it
