filtrbox
Welcome to filtrbox. We are busy developing a new web service that tracks and monitors new media content and news for small and medium businesses. filtrbox helps you stay in the know, automatically…
We are a small team based in Boulder, CO. and we believe there’s a better way to stay in-the-know than keeping up with searches, alerts and RSS subscriptions. We are working hard to get filtrbox ready for a sneak peek, so check back soon for blog updates and news.

Spotback - Personal News
by 21 othersSpotback is a new breed of personalized news service. It is designed to quickly learn each user's fields of interest and style by analyzing how users rate and interact with news information. It then offers users the most interesting, relevant and hard to filter news information personally tailored to their taste. Spotback uses sophisticated algorithms that analyze social behavior. These algorithms are designed to harness the power of the entire community for the benefit of the individual user. The ideas and technologies behind Spotback are based on the understanding that every user has his own interest and tastes. The true challenge of a personalized information service lies in finding the information that will interest individual users the most rather than the information that most users think is interesting. This concept makes Spotback fundamentally different from the existing 'find the most popular content' or 'top stories' technologies.
