Here’s something from Webjam that I think a lot of people will get a kick out of. It’s a one step creation tool for creating a content heavy website from scratch. Simply add any topic you like into the field below and click the Adopt! button:

It’s a handy tool for aggregating content from across the Internet, but I think there’s a lot more potential here than simply creating a fanpage (although it does that wonderfully).

One of the things I had to research recently was Spaghetti Westerns. I already know more than a little bit about the genre (I was lucky enough to do a crazy M.A. that covered some really unusual bases), but was a little out of touch with what was going on out there right now. I used the Webjam tool to create this page. Now I’m not going to build a blog around this subject (but I could if I was that way inclined by simply dropping a blog module onto the page as easily as I could pipe Morricone music through it) but as a research hub I’m finding it particularly useful. One of the feeds for example pointed me towards this unpublished book by Alex Cox that I’m having a lot of fun with.

Now most of you will already have blogs, but we all know someone who likes the idea of a real website, but hasn’t got the time (and sometimes chops) to put it together. The nice thing about Webjam is that it’s increasingly making the creation process simpler and easier.

Even someone with an already noteable web presence (be it on Wordpress, Blogger, Movable Type, Flickr, Twitter or whatever) could use the platform to beef up their content. The interesting thing is that this is only a starting point for Webjam. Often compared to Pageflakes and the like it would be easy to gain some buzz around this feature alone, but the team are a lot more interested in using simple page creation to create real communities.

There’s a full version of the tool on the Webjam homepage and be sure to check out the video… you may recognise the voice.
