Trend Sweet Trend
November 22nd, 2005
I have about 4 new tools to review and I’ll try to get to them all within the next 24 hours. First up, Trend Sweet Trend (TST). TST takes Livemarks (which is so addicting that I don’t allow myself to load it unless I have at least 10 minutes to kill) data and creates colored tables based on popularity trends. (Livemarks gets data from del.icio.us - follow me?). TST is a quick way of gaging which popular bookmarks are rising and falling in the past 9 hours.
I know. It needs to be RSS enabled. David Sterry, the man behind this project, has mentioned to me that he’s open to creating feeds. I’d really love to see that.
On another note, I’d love to see a Livemarks tool based on the most popular tags (and maybe related tags) So, for all the bookmarks for the keyword ‘library’, give me a live real-time page to look at. And, of course, use TST to show trends.
