Pinpointer lets online content be experienced in more of a retail way.
On Pinpointer, "taste mavens" create their own retail-scaled subsets of the material. -- They mark items they consider appealing within content categories that are used
throughout the system (e.g., "Female Vocals").Users pick: -- A content category. -- A taste maven (equivalent to choosing Nordstrom's or Target, The Limited or The Gap). Users see: -- Just the retail-scaled subset the taste maven considers appealing. Net result: Browsing is like shopping in normal stores, rather than a single mega-store that stocks every garment made on the planet.
