Spinn3r is a new service by the Tailrank people. What it does basically is you can build your own index of the blogosphere using their web service.
In layman terms if I wanted to build a super targeted memetracker only for web design blogs then I would think about using their service. { I think } The advantage is that I don’t to need build anything myself as they did all the code cramming already. I can just pay for the service. So far they have 1 million blogs indexed with a spam ratio of less than 1%. They better have my blog indexed. Visit Spinn3r for the whole deal. { I think this will start a whole new trend of substituting “e” with “3″ for new startups }
Original Signal is a human filtered content website. They show only the best web 2.0 related articles from the best web 2.0 blogs. Pink headlines are new ones since your last visit, grey for articles that you already visited, and blue for the rest. A bit too partial for my taste.
Pyro.tv { not related to justin.tv } is a video aggregator that lets you find the most popular channels, view other users subscriptions. You can make Pyro.TV your own personal video channel line-up with just
a few simple clicks. Then, kick back while you get ongoing video
updates to your favorite channels.
Most of these sites are better understood once you visit them, as frankly it’s just too much to type.

I checked out Pyro.tv and as far as video aggregators go, it wasn’t bad. I like that you can customize your own page, however I did notice that you aren’t able to view others pages. So the “sharing” of each other’s channels was lost on me. It did have a a bulk of channels in each genre to choose from.

I heard about Pyro through a friend and I love it. It is easy to use and there alot of genres to choose from. I am a music lover, so I have plenty of music channels to watch. I also created my own music channel and that was so fun. I can see how many hits I am receiving on my channel. I have tried a couple of other channel aggregators, but Pyro is really clean and easy to navigate. I definitely recommend Pyro.Tv.

I just started using Pyro Tv because I was interested in starting my own cooking podcast. I was really surprised at how easy it was to sign up. I actually have found several other cooking channels to put into my own account. I am using these channels to give me ideas for my own show. I like Pyro and I suggest everyone gives it a shot!
