Newsburst is a personalized tool that tracks virtually any type of information on the Web: news, blogs, shopping lists, weather, search results, alerts, auctions and more.

Check out the preview release, it’s pretty neat..

Along the same lines; BlogLines.com was recently acquired by AskJeeves.com and is in many ways similar to Newsburst, although I think the later has a more clear interface and concept.

Open Source In Space?

Saturday, January 29th, 2005

I stumbled into an organization which focuses on an idea I myself came up with a few weeks ago, and I am currently trying to incubate it into “something” if anything at all. So in the meantime I urge you to check out Anansi Spaceworks and the other related organizations…

Open Space?
It’s all about applying the openness of “open source” and similar concepts to every science and technology field. When the idea came to me I cheasily termed it “Open Space”, but that name is eagerly used for other things, so if and when I incubate this little idea it will surely have a brand new a super crisp name.

About Anansi Spaceworks
“Our mission at Anansi Spaceworks is to provide the training and resources that will be needed for a Free future in Space. For us, that future isn’t about governments or stocks, but about people. There are thousands of problems that need solving to make way for space colonization, and there’s no one better suited or motivated to solve them than the people who want to go. Our job is to make that as easy as it can be!”
