06.15.09ReadWriteWeb on the new SecondbrainSarah Perez just published a review about the new Secondbrain: It's not often you hear an application's creators describe their service as "an unmanageable complexity" that "compromised the user experience," but that's exactly what those behind the content aggregation system Secondbrain are admitting right now. Their service, a bookmarking/social-media sharing/lifestreaming/social network kind of tool was hard to describe and even harder to use. Also see my comment just below the post and check out the Twitterati talking about the new version.
