The More the Merrier

Following a pointer in BroadProspect's Blog I came across another company that is making micro-content aggregation - surfnotes, which was founded in October 1998 by Scott Hirsch in Jerusalem, Israel


Surfnotes scans Web pages using a patent-pending algorithm that matches
information to a template called an Intelligent Display Template. IDTs
cover ten categories to date, including business and sports. When you enter a
query, Surfnotes first searches according to category, then for the required
data. If you use Surfnotes, you get only relevant data, such as a sentence that indicates exactly what the earnings were, the name of the company, and the name of the chief executive officer
.

A week ago I thought QTSaver is the only player in this field but now we have also TheConcept, Orion and Surfnotes.

The more the merrier…
