Webskan is a collaborative platform for searching the web, organizing and sharing your results . .. without “cut and paste”. Skan. Organize. Share …

Searching data on the Web is always a challenge .. Launch multiple searches with different keywords, try to keep track of the searches, cut & paste the interesting results. When you want to share some interesting findings, you send multiple links in emails, ...

Webskan is a multi-sources and collaborative on line solution which is going to drastically change the way you will be searching for information on the web; Webskan will allow you to optimise and share the "Smart Web". First of all, WebSkan allows you to launch multiple searches against multiple search engines of your choice. It allows you then to memorise all the searches and all the results found on the web, permanently; you then have plenty of time to sort, enrich, organise the results in a smart way and share them with others.

Webskan functionalities are:

  • Launch searches on the web by combining simultaneously multiple search engines (Google, Yahoo, Bing, DailyMotion, …) and multiple search terms (one term = a combination of words) within the same search.
  • Automatic filtering of the results based on user preferences (preferred languages; exclude results from blacklisted websites; purge of the duplicate links; …).
  • See all the results at a glance, under the same format, whatever their structure is (videos, links towards articles, images, …). They are shown under a unique and homogeneous interface, the “vignette” format.
  • Keep track of all the searches and the results (local mode or stored on the cloud) in order to have time to sort and organize them; you can start a search and work on it later, and why not using another device.
  • Enrich the folder with emails received, post-its, votebox or web contents captured “on the fly”, with a single click, when surfing on the Web.
  • Organize and present quickly and in a professional way the results of your searches through a nice and friendly user interface « PowerPoint style» (titles, colours, free positioning, ..).
  • Share and collaborate in real time around all the folder elements, with a centralisation of all the feedbacks.

With Webskan, accelerate your web searches, organise the results and share them. Skan. Organise. Share …. Webskan.

Webskan can be used in a freemium mode (unlimited time) but limited in terms of capabilities ... The limitations are in terms of number of folders managed + number of people I can collaborate with. - For more details about the pricing please see our website.

Très bon produit, très utile pour organiser les recherches sur le web. Merci

I wonder if search results will be as pointless, as addon description -- you have to break through 3 paragraphs of PR bullshit like "this pill is going to drastically change the way...", -- to get to the functional description, and find the most important thing at the very end: "functionality of the free version is limited."

Is Webskan Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Webskan requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Webskan is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
