first attention within the bologosphere

Yesterday, the first blogger picked up on hooeey and its offered services. Under the title ‘Hooeey is a Less Scary Version of Slife‘ a post on mashable.com was published. The article describes hooeey in a compact and short way. The webware blog has already chosen a title which describes hooeey the shortes way ‘De.licio.us + Google Web History = Hooeey’. Considering the title it is obvious that the question: “How does hooeey differ from Google web history?” comes up. While writing hooeeys FAQs we included this particular question already, here is the answer:

Google web history has broadly the same objectives as hooeey. It differs from hooeey in some significant ways:

Google web history only records your web activity while you are signed in to your Google Account. hooeey works without having to worry about signing in when you launch your browser, hooeey’s already at work.

Google web history does not allow the user to access browser history off-line nor does it provide the user the ability to filter off-line what links are to be stored. Every site visited is automatically stored in Google’s server.

With hooeey, the user decides what web site links are stored and when. Google web history has no way of tagging and commenting interesting web sites. hooeey allows you to tag and comment sites as you visit them or even when you are off-line!

Google web history has no way of letting you selective share links with your friends. hooeey allows you to create or import contact lists so that you can send interesting links to anyone easily. hooeey also allows you to see a list of links that you have shared with friends, in one place.

Only hooeey provides you a way to transform boring links into a visually-rich hooeey WebTour complete with title, themes and comments that are fun to create and share.
