URLManager for a Shared Link Tracking System

Posted: September 26th, 2003 | No Comments »

URLManager, developped by Matthias Laux, would be perfect to us in an application that keep track of the links and comments I make on all the web documents/articles I read thru the day. I use a friggin low-tech text file for the moment. The package contains:

  • URLManage: manages all interactions with the link data in the RDBS
  • URLCheck: automatically checks the links stored in the database against the network
  • URLPublish: creates web pages
  • I could even make it as a shareable article link manager where people in a community (e.g. a blog community) could post/submit the links of articles/documents they read and share comments. This could be integrated into and distributed in every community members’ weblog (the same way the shoutblog is).
