Cullect - A crackishly addictive feedreader for new media Pookies.

Tell me someone got my New Jack City reference.

I live online. You probably spend a significant amount of time there too. But, the more spread out my online self becomes the harder it is to keep up. For many of the people I talk to, this is an increasingly common issue. Aggregators are all the buzz right now, but from my experience on Friendfeed.com and netvibes/pageflakes no one has it right yet.

Cullect.com is the best I’ve seen. Right now, I’m blogging FROM the article I just read, amidst my long collection of articles. See it here: Cullect is Not a Comment Silo - Garrick Van Buren

What’s cool?

1. I can aggregate feeds (no big deal, although the interface is nice and clean.)
2. I can embed the feed widget on my blog (coming soon, and I like it.)
4. The Keyboard shortcuts are sweet.
5. I can share my aggregated feeds (expected.)
6. I can blog, or Twitter, or Tumblr straight from an article in my reader, and…
7. I can log into multiple blogs, Twitter accounts, or Tumblr accounts.

Now that’s when Cullect got me. I can now aggregate everything, and then reply or blog about it from the what I’m reading. One web page open, much more organized, great for the ADD, and it allows me to be faster and more current.

What’s not cool?

1. I was a bit confused signing up. But I will chalk that up to being a user problem.
2. While clean, Cullect could stand to have some extra visuals. Maybe access to basic CSS would allow this. (Please!!!)
3. The navigation, to me, isn’t intuitive until I received support. Considering there are other options, I think this will need to be tweaked to reach a mass audience. It seems easy now that I know the layout.
4. Decent service aggregation, but could add more (pownce and facebook for specific examples.

I’m geeking pretty hard on Cullect right now.
