Small Rivers: Connecting blogs and websites
Small Rivers, a company specializing in the development of distributed web services, has launched a new service. This service links related content from various websites and blogs on a single website.
The Portable Content Network allows content publishers and bloggers to tag their content with an intelligent microcode that gives visitors instant access to similar content and blogs elsewhere on the web. It is also possible to interact with visitors to these other websites without leaving the page they initially visited. The environmental protection organization WWF International will be the first to introduce such networks, the company announced.
Small Rivers is a start-up company founded by Edouard Lambelet, former co-founder of MNC (sold to Alcatel-Lucent in 2004), and Iskander Pols, former senior manager at HP Europe. Small Rivers is financed by Business Angels, a venture capital fund that promotes business projects and is supported by the Swiss canton of Vaud. Small Rivers is located in the Science Park of the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne.
