Hyperlinkage

January 30th, 2005

One of my Furl feeds linked me to Hyperlinkage, a new web-based aggregator. I signed up (of course I did) and played with it for a while and was impressed with the system. Registration was easy (even though they send an e-mail confirmation, I didn’t immediately have to go there and get it - It logged me in automatically after registration - Neat), and adding feeds was a snap. You have the option of adding your feeds to a community directory (another form of collective intelligence at work in the aggregator business?) or making it private. There is a “Bloglines” quality to it in that your feeds appear on the left and the content comes up on the right. The updated feeds are also bolded so that you don’t have to click around.

A few issues:

1) Can’t delete feeds.
2) No full-text feeds (even if the party provides it).
3) No way to keep up with upgrades (No blog, no feed - ugh).
4) No OPML inport/export.

One to watch. I’m sure that they are working on it.
