A server side application programming interface (API) may be provided to access a organization's curated links, a web user experience may be provided to enable the administrator to manage and curate the organizational links, and a mobile-specific user experience may be provided for viewing the links in a manner that enables quick access to the most relevant content to users of the organization.
