Scoutle, a social network site where users create personal webbots (Scouts) that walk through the Internet, while meeting other Scouts and connect to each other. Scoutle offers users a unique way of promoting their blog or website and finding other interesting users without having to do anything. Scoutle is best to describe as automated social networking for bloggers.
Using Scoutle is interesting because you are able to find interesting blogs without having to search for it and in the meantime promote your own blog only to fellow bloggers that are likely to be interested. Because of the algorithms, it is hard to manipulate and because your Scout is doing all the work, there is hardly any reason not to use Scoutle. Scoutle fully relies on how interesting your blog is, not the other way around. It just helps you to get the recognition and appreciation your blog/website deserves. Read More »
