Slashdot covers an announcement of the Waypath Project:
Remember the recent slashdot story on NASA cancelling the moon hoax book? Wonder what other weblogs are saying about the subject? Launched today (in beta), the Waypath Project is an attempt to network the weblog community, connecting weblogs that share common themes, ideas, and topics. The Waypath Project’s Related Weblog Navigation engine analyzes weblog entries to determine their core conceptual makeups, compares them with one another to find out how related they are, and presents you with its best guess as to what’s related to your original input. This is done all automatically.
The site documentation is interesting– what would you do if you were implementing a similar system? I notice that they poll weblogs.com. No need to manually add my weblog. 🙂
It’s being slashdotted, so be gentle.
