uKoment

We think highlighting and annotating text content should be much more popular online, we try to help get there.

We're a new born startup (2016), with the purpose of enabling *sharing with a value-add*. That may sound a bit fancy indeed, so let's break it down: we think adding personal touches to online articles before sharing them makes the sharing experience richer for you (the guy/girl who's sharing the stuff) and for your audience. Now: - those personal touches can be either simple highlights (in yellow, for now) of the bits of an online article that you found of particular interest, or margin comments to a specific figure, sentence or paragraph that made you react and want to say something or express an emotion - your audience can be for example colleagues at work, that are too lazy/busy to read the whole article you want to share but would gladly spend a fraction of that time to have a quick glance at your highlights and margin comments. Your audience can also be your Facebook or Twitter people, who are certainly more interested/curious in seeing what caught your interest in the article you just shared through uKoment, than in the odorless, colorless, lifeless article without those little touches The current web site is a first version that we know is far from being perfect but decent enough for you to give it a try without being offended. You can have a look at my feed here with the stuff I've been komenting (we use this verb to create some sort of universe :) https://ukoment.com/profile/10 (warning: some stuff is in French!) We have some exciting plans in the very short term to offer new ways/channels to use uKoment, let us know at [email protected] if you'd like to hear more!
