Apture:将内容与网页整合在一起的快照工具
Apture是进入4月以来最让我兴奋的网站工具,它是提供快照,看上去就像这个网站上无所不在的snapshot一样。但是,apture和snapshot有着本质的不同,它不是简单的提供个快照,然后链接过去了事;而是让读者不用离开网站,就能看到链接的内容,并且即使点击快照中的链接也不会离开网站。有点抽象?看看下图吧,点击看大图。
这是前两天的一篇“灵异”文章,居然在20000光年的地方发现了火狐的Logo。大家可以注意以下,文中有两个链接(蓝圈所示)前面多了维基百科的标志,当鼠标滑过时,就会弹出这个窗口,讲得是关于这颗星星的故事。窗口中还有很多链接,点击它们就会在旁边再打开一个窗口,总之,既让你可以看到内容,又不会离开这个网页。(更新:1. Apture来信通知说出现了一些故障,故本站里的apture暂不可用;2. 问题已修复)
这就是apture的优势所在,它自己有一个演示页面,大家可以去看看。
Apture drags online news experience into the 21st century
(via venturebeat) …Apture provides some of the best implementation of these ideas. If a reader sees a term in an article that they want to learn more about, and additional content has been enabled through Apture, they can click on that phrase, and a small window will open with the new content. For example, if a political figure you don’t know much about is mentioned in an article, you can click on their name and it might bring up the Wikipedia article; you might also be able to open additional windows showing a photo or a video of their latest public appearance.
