Topix is Crawling Blogs!
Darren Rowse has the scoop, and he is now sitting on the front page of Topix.net!
Topix.net has started crawling blogs. They announced yesterday on their Weblog that they’ve added 15,000 blogs to be crawled. This is significant news on two fronts.
It seems they want to beat Memeorandum and Digg.
But our mission is to discover the news within the sea of blog posts, and report them by location and subject. What we’re releasing today is our first step in connecting our readers to 15,000 more voices talking about the topics they care about.
While Memeorandum and Digg are approaching the same problem, we needed a solution that would scale to our 300,000 newsfeeds.
It doesn’t look like they’re crawling Myopic Zeal, but I have submitted a source suggestion.
UPDATE: I just heard back from Rich Skrenta at Topix, and they are adding Myopic Zeal to the Topix feed. Thanks for the great service Topix! And on a whim, I google Rich’s name, and came up with this fascinating bit of trivia at Wikipedia.
Richard “Rich” Skrenta is a computer programmer. He is currently CEO of Topix.net.
In 1982 he wrote the Elk Cloner virus for the Apple II, possibly the first computer virus.
