What is a track?
A track is a guided tour through a set of pages I have chosen... Well follow the guide then ;)

Now lets say you've spotted some worthwhile pages and want to share them whilst commenting each one... well you start by adding the first URL such as the one above. Then simply add a comment: Heard of madewell??? no? well this is a very beautiful site. Do take a look around then continue the tour clicking on the blue arrow on the left of this text. Oh by the way you can't buy anything from this site... its more of a vitrine.

Next you add another site you wan't to show and so on... Now what is great about the tracks is that those who follow your tracks can actually browse the site and then move on to the next site you want to show them. Capzels is a sort of Mac interface to FlikR... Do take a look around :)

Adding a video is obviously simple... Just put in the youtube url (or dailymotion, or whatever...). I love absurd humour... if you're the same enjoy, otherwise quickly jog on ;)

You can add in nearly any type of page... Did I say nearly? Well truth is some pages are "framebusters" that means they kill the reader (the reader is this part where you are reading this comment). You'll notice them real quick when you build a track beacause they kill the editor. So do remember to save your track whilst you are building it. If the reader does disppear simply go back (with you browser's back button) and the editor should re appear where you were last.. (sometimes you need to go back twice).

Last thing: Something really cool about tracks is that you can post the URL of the track on your blog or site and if someone follows your track, he'll automatially land back on you blog or site after the tour. Simply click one last time on the blue arrow on the left of this text and you'll land back where you came from. You'll no longer be loosing your visitors... This is my brother's blog who is on a world tour with his four children for a year... Some posts are in english, some in french and some in spanish. They left on the 16th of july 2008...
