Managing RSS content…

Filed under: General, readers

Geeking with Greg: A relevance rank for news and weblogs talks about alleviating the RSS overload problem by sorting your feeds by relevance rather than date. He explains that this ranking is more intimate than popularity as it is based on circles of blogs that you like.

I’ve mentioned before about systems, such as Ultragleeper, that use a circle of blogs for recommendation…what we are talking about above is similar, but it’s not for scouting new content, it’s for arranging content that you already have into a more meaningful way based on a circle of blogs. This idea of a circle of blogs reminds me of MemeStreams, although this tool requires you to manually hook up with friends.

Something most similar to what Greg, from Findory, mentions is Chameleon…keeps track of your favourite feeds on your past reading behaviour and ranks them in priority…same idea behind Findory.

  1. Hi, John. I think Chameleon is different, isn’t it? Doesn’t it prioritize feeds, not articles?
