# Are.na

> Collect ideas and build connections between them.

Are.na lets you collect references and discover connections between them. You can save images, notes, files, and web pages into channels, then arrange and search those collections as a research topic develops. An item can belong to several channels, so the same reference can sit beside different material and take on a different context. Discovery follows the people and channels you choose to explore. Search works across your own collections, your network, and the wider service. An open API also lets developers build applications with Are.na's content, making it useful for both a personal reference library and a shared research project.
