I’ve just posted a new page on Chordata called “Net Pulse News“. It pulls the hottest search trends from Google Trends, and displays news, blog and video search results based on those keywords.
Google Trends identifies the hottest trends in search — the keywords that massive numbers of people have recently started searching for. When big […]

I just launched a new service on Chordata called “Top Feeds” that generates RSS feeds from the content of the top feeds in each category on the site. Go to any category and click the subscription button near the upper-right corner of the page to subscribe. As the top feeds in a category […]

I’ve got some good news and some bad news.

I checked the feed, and sure enough, the […]

I’m hoping to implement a new configuration method that doesn’t require all of the CarpConf calls. A change this big will […]

Last year, I posted a few times regarding short-lived feeds and the problems caused by feed readers that continue to poll them long after they’ve gone quiet. The issue came up again on Tim Bray’s blog 3 days ago after he posted about his experience with enabling comments on his blog.
I just discovered Sam Ruby’s […]
