Suppose you have an idea bouncing around your brain. Let's say it's about any kind of topic, subject, problem, issue -- you know what I mean. Let's say you're in a school or library. Now let's say that you've got access to the Internet and you want to see if your cool brain idea and the the wonders of the Web could live in a harmonious explosion of the Web's informational filaments and the power of your own mentality. Well, let's just say that Filamentality was made just for you!

Maybe it doesn't slice or dice, but Filamentality does help you blend your learning goals with the outrageous resources available on the Web. How does Filamentality do it? By taking your hand and guiding you through the design of a learning activity. Okay, it also does it with a bunch of "fill-in-the-blanks" that help you pick a topic (if your brain is drained), search the Web, gather good Internet sites, and coach you to shape your ideas around whatever specific goal you have, and then, presto change-o, gives you your very own Webpage on the Internet. Wanna see an example?

In short, you'll be turning others' Websites into learners' insights. How exactly does this happen? Filamentality will guide you through two major steps: gathering Internet links and designing the learning activity. All along the way, you'll be prompted to enter information into those little "fill-in-the-blank" rectangular fields. Help is built in, so you'll end up with a Web-based activity that lives right on the Web that you can share with others. And this is all done without you even having to know anything about HTML, Web servers, or those "www-dot" things.

Filamentality's been designed to be useful in a few main ways:

• You get to create Web pages without having to bother learning HTML.
  
  
• You get to immediately post your Webpage on the Internet (that's right, you'll get your very own "www-dot" thingy!).
  
  
• You can get really cool and create a Web-based learning page that targets a specific kind of learning.

Filamentality's flexible enough for beginners and sophisticated enough so that old Web-pros will find it useful.
