    Kiobo.com - Social Browsing

    New start up Kiobo is entering the social recommendation space with its Firefox toolbar. Kiobo aims to make web browsing more social.

    Users can see the real time surfing habits of their friends and the community as a whole. They can choose to focus in on one particular friend and see what he/she has recently browsed, what sites he frequents and what his tag cloud looks like—of course this is only possible if your pal allows it. Beyond that, Kiobo will take a look at your own browsing habits and make recommendations based on sites which your friends and members of the community who have similar interests like to browse. So, you’ll be able to meet other people with the same interests and browsing behavior, and become their followers. Kiobo displays popular sites in real time; and you can see exactly who’s browsing what. There are, of course, privacy controls put in place, so that you can choose to allow others to see what you browse or not.

    Kiobo.com In their own words

    “Kiobo helps users enrich their browsing experience by making browsing a more social activity. We enable users to explore and leverage their social graph's browsing behavior. Users can effortlessly find not only new sites relevant to their interest but also people with similar browsing behavior.”

    Why Kiobo.com might be a killer

    Kiobo has a well designed interface and a well thought out feature set. Users can import Facebook friends and there are pretty robust privacy controls built in. It’s got potential.

    Some questions about Kiobo.com

    There isn’t a lot you can do here as far as interaction goes; you can’t share certain items and there’s no way to score or rate items. Beyond that, it could add widgets or a navigational bar.
