Pluck

Pluck Corp. has created a software solution to the cumbersome process of finding and managing Internet information called Pluck. It is available as a free download and integrates with Microsoft Internet Explorer, the most commonly used Web browser. As more people rely on Web information, Pluck makes it easier to gather, store and share it using a single application that integrates with other applications including Web browsers, e-mail systems and file management.

Pluck offers a rich set of capabilities to solve this problem. It includes features like Pluck Power Search which allows users to search, sort and filter results from popular search and ecommerce sites such as Google, eBay, and Amazon.com. Users can view a list of search results through a "double-pane view," similar to the experience of viewing incoming e-mail with the preview pane activated in Microsoft Outlook. This allows users to quickly find and view the information they need from search results.

Pluck Sharing enables users to share favorite Web pages with friends and co-workers with one-click of the mouse, making them instantly available in "active" shared folders viewed by authorized users. Pluck RSS Reader gives users direct access to continuous news feeds from thousands of XML-enabled online information sources, including magazines, Web sites, blogs and more. It also enables users to filter news and search on topics of interest.

Lastly, Pluck My Web is an integrated bookmark manager that allows users to organize, add comments, and access Web links in a simple, easy-to-use interface. It also synchronizes bookmarks between multiple computers, making all their bookmarks accessible wherever they go. Overall, Pluck is a powerful solution that helps users manage their Internet information efficiently and collaboratively.
