~~One idea~~ to ~~support research~~ the user ~~can mark~~ certain ~~data and save it in a time-line~~. ~~Quotes~~, ~~value~~, ~~tabular data and micro-formats~~ are ~~supported~~.

~~The Website is saved to~~ be ~~able~~ to ~~work offline with~~ the ~~data~~. ~~The User can later scroll back through his Session~~.

===Which problem did you identify?===

Bookmarks only save a reference to a webpage. For the user most of the time a only a certain information on the Page is interesting.

===Users===

The Users we focused on are students, searching for relevant content on the net, they want to use in academic context.

===Why are current systems unable to solve this problem?===

There are some systems having an similar idea, but most of them do not integrate into the users work flow well.

===What research findings led you to your first concept?===

In our research we found out that users first collect a much information before selecting the relevant one, in a later step. To enable users to save information fast and later review it with an good overview. An other finding was that many users save the hole webpage as they fear that it will not be available later, so we decided that this should at least be an option to the user.

===In 140 characters, what is the essence of your project/solution?===

Saving relevant bits of information (url and metadata) with context and comments.

===Implementation===

Visulization of Concept here [http://webuser.uni-weimar.de/~cono0627/edu/dfa/stopmotion.mp4]

===~~Goals~~===

===How did you ensure that a beginner can use your solution?===

We ~~want to give~~ the ~~user~~ the ~~possibility for further usage of saved informations~~.

~~#the user can save nearly everything.~~

We used the metaphor of the Index card to make it more usable.

~~#the user can generate~~ a ~~pdf, if he want or reject it~~

===What makes your solution more useful or efficient than current products?===

The Design!

===How did you test your design?===

We did a paper prototype.

===~~Non-goals but maybe~~ a ~~feature~~===

===What new problems did you identify?===

The ~~possibility to share sth~~

Users don't feel comfortable with a Design that uses one "Index Card" per bit of information.

===What did you change following your user tests?===

The design was changed so that there is one "Index Card" per page.
