Listas is a great concept.. but misunderstood

Most people have misunderstood listas as a tool to make and share lists. Its much more than that. It can create lists very easily from the websites.

Here is an example. Say I want to apply for a visa to Germany. I go to the German consulate page where there is a list of things I need to do and a list of documents I need to carry to apply for the visa.

With Listas toolbar, I can very easily import this list at whatever level of detail I want, Very easily select the depth of the page HTML tree. (basically it uses HTML tags to parse). Also, I can trim the list quickly and share it as well.

Besides, its not just text, but photos and videos

Its not very well explained and since its a tech preview, it doesnot have the hightlest level of stability.
