- (2020-07-28) Jesse Lee: 不好使
- (2015-07-13) Diner Ismail: Great tool! It's very helpful when researching a topic.
- (2014-10-13) Marco Brandizi: Very nice idea! It's already so useful, but I hope authors are thinking of more functionality. For instance: automatic extraction of relevant words from the current page, display of users with similar interests. It also has a few minor bugs, but that's what one expects for a just-launched tool and it already works pretty well anyway!
- (2014-10-12) Jacob Israel: Great extension. started to work with it, and it really makes life easier, covering any term/subject from all angles.
- (2014-10-07) Brice Fernandes: This is a really interesting project and extension, and is a great help in digging into a topic. It is really useful for article reading online and lets the user link topics using a powerful topic board abstraction. There's also lots of potential here in how to collaborate and share information. Highly recommended for learning more about any subject and digging into the science behind any topic.
