New Venture: picobuzz
picobuzz
The blog's been silent for some time to say the least, but there is a reason--I have been working on my latest distraction venture: picobuzz. picobuzz is a web app intended to capture buzz from the microblogging community. It would have been named "microbuzz" but of course that domain name was already taken.
Currently, picobuzz is centered around Twitter and pulls popular (buzz) terms from the public timeline. My goal is to use this as a platform to try out interesting data mining and AI algorithms. The site is in alpha form at the moment, i.e. not even worthy of beta. But I wanted to get it out there so I'll be motivated to get cracking on improvements.
Stay tuned, as they say, for more details.
