Cool blog tool
October 28, 2009Jon Brooks Comments OffAlphaInventions is a blog search tool that is supposed to work in real time. From the “What is AlphaInventions” page:
If you update or publish your blog at the same time my visitors are browsing blogs in my site then my visitors will get a chance to see your blog in real-time. BAM! (the entire blog is in their face instantly) It’s not even annoying to watch. Is it, alpha addicts??
I also provide a link to your blog in case they want it to open your blog in a new window, or bookmark your blog. The links provides your title, and description to help my visitors get a better understanding on what your blog is about, and get more interested. Alphainventions.com is useful for wordpress.com , typepad.com, spaces.live.com, and blogger.com I love it, and want to grow it like a tree. Yahh!
Frankly, I’m still not entirely sure how it works. Go to the home page, and random blogs start flashing before your eyes like you’re having a near-death Web experience.
But you can also type in something in the search box, and the site will spit out 10 rotating blog entries on that topic. I put in “Joe Lieberman” for example–who yesterday threw a monkey-wrench into the congressional machinery looking to create a health care public option–and got these results:
- Joe Lieberman (Backstabber) Meets With His Public (The Thinker–Or Just Sitting Around)
- What Joe Lieberman might hope to gain by killing healthcare reform (The Reid Report)
- Lieberman Proposed Public Option In 2004, Opposes It Now (Talking Points Memo)
- Lieberman: Health bill concern not based on Connecticut insurance companies (The Hill)
- No Way to Run a Political Party (Washington Monthly)
- What is Joe Lieberman’s plan, exactly? (Gawker)
- Thank you Joe Lieberman (and William F. Buckley, Jr.) (Never Yet Melted)
- Congressional roundup: Joe Lieberman edition (New Mexico Independent)
- Joe Lieberman forgets that we can look stuff up (Backstage w/Supak)
- Profiles In Courage: Joe Lieberman Stands Up For The Poor Health Insurers (Inebriated Discourse)
That’s a pretty interesting mix. Try it yourselves on a topic of choice…
