Heurist is a free web database service which captures and manages information about many different types of item - web bookmarks, bibliographic references, maps, people, events, images, projects, objects etc. (currently more than 60 item types - new ones are easily added). Personal notes, discussions, wiki pages, web links, images and geographic location can be added to any item in the database. Items can be cross-referenced.
Heurist allows one to easily and quickly find, capture and share relevant information within workgroups, organise information resources and generate teaching/research project web site content automatically (including within most Content Management Systems and teaching systems such as WebCT). No programming skills are required.
