We will develop a highly-usable desktop tool that aims to support a synthesis of user-created and curated content within a simple workflow. This will be consistent with general information management practices emerging as a result of the popularity of the RSS and Atom metadata aggregation formats.
The tool will have many of the features of an RSS aggregator and blog post editor but combined also with the capability to make extensive use of the information environment, including using the Information Environment Service Registry (IESR) for discovering and adding new sources, ePrints servers and institutional repositories via OAI-PMH, and access to learning object repositories such as Jorum via SRU search.
