Interesting new metablogging services
At least, new to me:
AllConsuming, which aggregates blog-mentions of books into a reader's zeitgeist of the blogosphere, or something like that. Guess it's been around for several months, but I'm just now finding it. See also Book Watch, a similarish gig. Wonder if anyone's done this for media other than books?
LocalFeeds, which aggregates RSS feeds into geographically local news feeds, using GeoURL metadata as the location tag. This one's been live for about a month I think, judging by this here post at karchner.com.
Upcoming, a public event listing/calendar service keyed by location ('Metro'), venue and people. All of 4 days old, and growing fast. It's definitely got rough edges, but could be quite cool for finding events and people to go to them with.
Guess there will be some new feed-cruft coming to this site soon, sigh ;-P
