How to source on the lesser known sites!! Pearltrees

Pearltrees refers to itself as "a place for your interests". Functionally the product is a visual and

collaborative curation tool that allows users to organize, explore and share any URL they find online

as well as to upload personal photos, files and notes. Pearltrees is not well known in the community

and few have tried to source in it. Well to do this without worry you need go no further than into

your bag of tricks and  pull out an old tried and true tool, called x-raying.

 

So to source within Pearltrees you simply need to create an x-ray string, like the one below.

 

site:pearltrees.com java developer

 

If you run the strings above in google you will get the results below, mind you both strings work and will give slightly different results

 

Now keep in mind you will see some great info that will be more than enough to cross reference in Linkedin or other social sites to find the rest of the info.

 

If you need more info on X-raying see my blog post http://www.recruitingblogs.com/profiles/blogs/seeing-what-is-really...

 

Next week we will look at Wordpress
