I’m exporing a different format today and moving away from the ‘launchpad’ page. From now on, the day’s hot startups will be listed as posts ready for easy digestion.
Today’s startups are a bit of a mixed bag (as always), but there’s some great developments that have just hit the dub-dub-dub. Standing out today was the beautiful looking – and quite overwhelming – almost.at which is a constantly updating stream of content parsed from Twitter, blogs, websites, Flickr and Youtube (and more) relating to a particular event: today’s events included Obama’s speech in Cairo, the anniversary of Tianenmen Square… you get the idea.
From today’s obligatory new Twitter applications we are given Twubs which aggregates hashtag tweets together and Twaitter, allowing you to schedule a tweet to happen in the future. More than the actual development, I pity the unenviable job that Twitter app creative minds have in naming their application. Surely every possible word in the english dictionary starting with T&W has already been used up.
Entering into the search engine foray is the slick DeeperWeb.com which does a great job taking the Google search platform and adding to it tag clouds, entries from Wikipedia, blog entries and the like. A standard Firefox addon will make it easier to remember to use DeeperWeb once the new greatest-search-engine-ever graces our screens (due next Monday, Thursday and two new releases scheduled for a week from Sunday).
