How it works?

• Data aggregation: I use YQL to aggregate and extract data from all the sources.
• Story selection/Ranking: Recent stories which are generating maximum conversation over the web are selected automatically using APIs including Y! BOSS site explorer, Google Trackbacks and the most important postrank API which tracks almost all of the social media including bookmarking sites, Twitter, Friendfeed, comments on the blog post, etc.
• Related Stories: Related stories are found through similarity calculated over several features like content, tags, links, etc and is easily accomplished using text mining methods present in BOSS Mashup framework.
• Search: Site restricted search powered by Y! BOSS.
• User Interface: YUI. Get your grids quickly through YUI Grid builder
  
• Hosting: Site runs on Google App Engine, my favorite hosting platform.
