Content Aggregators

Thursday, October 12. 2006

I'm a fan of Edelman's Steve Rubel's blog. Earlier this month, I linked from it to the Web 2.0 Toolbar, an aggregator of user-generated content in various forms.

The sight describes the tool as a way to 'save time and keep up on the latest Web 2.0 news right from one browser toolbar. The Free Web 2.0 Toolbar aggregates the best of Social Search, Social Bookmarking, Social Pics, Social Video and Social News websites.'

With the introduction of social media, we've been so inundated with data that I welcome these kinds of aggregation tools.

Another one of my favorites: Pure Video. Lists the top 10 videos from a bevy of resources including YouTube, CNN, ESPN and others.
