thomas n. burg - on social media and its benefits for us, and sometimes gossip.

“It’s not acquisition but reliable filtering”, says Eric Garland, with respect to TV networks and the movie industry. Only yesterday I downloaded ANT. It’s nothing else but an RSS-enclosure aggregator with integrated media-player. It works according to a simple principle: download and play what you subscribe to. It makes especially sense for short pieces of content I think: clips, news, …

Now the challenge is to find worthwhile content in the huge networked library of the Internet. A filter for RSS-enclosures would be great. Should work similar to how the blogosphere worked before or do we need help from technorati or blogstats and the like.

I’d even pay, however, for a decent content-filtering.
And, of course, I’d like to be part of that collaborative filtering process.
