Memerank ™ is the key to relevant live web

Marcelo Calbucci has a great idea that I think can even be made betterif we insert some attention metadata.

By focusing on affinity groups instead of mass popularity, we can extract the most meaningful news from the live web, rather than the just the most popular and the ones that popular bloggers link to (often the same).

Links are truly dead with a sophisticated algorithm that could do this.

I’m going to label it memerank ™ and use it on a share your OPML like project I’ve been playing with over at http://dev.glistn.com

I think the results could be interesting, but I’m curioous to know whether it will produce results that readers would want. I think it will.
