OVERVIEW
Jeteye is a free service that lets you manage content you find online. Jeteye lets you save links, images, videos or text from any web page you want into a personalized webpage called a Jetpak. You can access this information from any computer and share it with others.
A Jetpak is the container that holds the items you are saving. It is actually a webpage with a unique URL address. This means you can access your information from any computer that has an internet connection. View Example.
Keep track of all the things you find online is hard. Between bookmarks, emails, pictures, videos, blogs, RSS feeds and miscellaneous items you come across every day, it easy to become disorganized. Jeteye lets you easily capture these things into Jetpaks that you can continually update. Keep your information private, share it with friends, let others comment on it or publish it to the world—Jeteye lets you do it all.
It's free!

ORGANIZING AND EDITING A Jetpak

One of my Jetpaks was made Private. Why?
We're not kidding about the above. If we run across a Jetpak not fit for a 'PG' rating we will take steps to remove it from our Public Jetpak search, or mark it Private. You can still use a Private Jetpak for your own purposes.
