Jessica Alba Says Its All About Post Grazing, Relevance, Clustering
Bokardo has a good 101 on news filtering services that (Kevin The Filter Guru Burton linked to) in a very interesting Post Grazing, Relevance, Clustering : Even Jessica was down with it, having a break in Paris instead of Hawaii for a change. It will be interesting to see the various deployments of these 'Filters" downunder. In Australia, the problem is less inbound links, and those with the most links are generally high traffic blogs linked to by non-Australians. Globally it will be interesting how these services can be applied (in a "personalised" way) to other file formats such as Podcasts, YouTube videos etc. Bokardo :
Post Grazing - I would say post grazing is getting nearer our end goal. It is grazing for the latest, most interesting posts, regardless of what feed they come from.
Relevance - is the make or break of these services. Many of them use a link-counting method to find the most talked-about content, often combining that with some measure of authority to present the most relevant information.
Clustering - is extremely important because otherwise the content becomes an echo chamber. It is very useful to have related posts clustered so that we don’t see the same news over and over.
