FeedBlendr - blending RSS, Atom and RDF feeds into a single river of news! Pictarine - Zest of life Reader Online Project Management & Planning Software Yahoo! Pipes, las tuberías de RSS Hace ya unos días estoy jugando con Yahoo! Pipes uno de los servicios más interesantes que se vieron en los últimos tiempos. La idea es, básicamente, un editor drag&drop con el que podés conectar fuentes de información, remezclarlas, hacer un “mashup” y escupir los resultados en feeds RSS. Y la idea es genial por dos cosas, primero porque empieza a generar MUCHA MAS UTILIDAD para los feeds al extender las posibilidades originales del mismo ya que si lo podés remezclar, filtrar, ordenar y sumar a otros “pedidos” empieza a darte la data que VOS querés cuando la querés sin depender de que el dueño de la fuente lo haga (¿ya vamos a empezar a ver problemas de licencia?) La otra ventaja es que bajan los requerimentos de conocimientos técnicos para crear nuevos mashups, si antes era necesario que entiendas de código para hacer cualquier cosa, ahora esta interfaz empieza a ser un primer paso para aprender a desarrollar…
Slife Labs | Time Management Software The Seven Needs of Real-Time Curators I keep hearing people throw around the word “curation” at various conferences, most recently at SXSW. The thing is most of the time when I dig into what they are saying they usually have no clue about what curation really is or how it could be applied to the real-time world. So, over the past few months I’ve been talking to tons of entrepreneurs about the tools that curators actually need and I’ve identified seven things. First, who does curation? Bloggers, of course, but blogging is curation for Web 1.0. But NONE of the real time tools/systems like Google Buzz, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, give curators the tools that they need to do their work efficiently. As you read these things they were ordered (curated) in this order for a reason. This is a guide for how we can build “info molecules” that have a lot more value than the atomic world we live in now. A curator is an information chemist. So, what are the seven needs of real time curators? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 1. 1.
