Adventure in Aggregating Pages


i like the concept of Aggregating Pages i use SharePoint for my students at the university that is very simulacra to Aggregating Pages but it has some more powerful tools that will allow me to write code and interact with the stud nest through there office suite.

There are four types of aggregation sites:
• Human edited
• Algorithmic selection
• Social bookmarking
• Automatic scraping or ingestion


Human EditedHuman-culled headline aggregation sites, such as Drudge Report and NewzJunky.com, are quite popular.


Algorithmic SelectionSome sites – most notably Google News and Techmeme attempt to mimic human decision-making through computer programming. Such algorithmic programs make computational decisions based on such factors as popularity of a site, how many external sites link to a particular story, and the popularity of the sites embedding those links.


Social BookmarkingDigg is the most popular social bookmarking site on the web. In January, Digg.com reached24 million people.


Automated AggregationComputers can be used to aggregate headlines and links through two methods: Scraping (using a robot server to crawl news web pages) and RSS ingest (grabbing a site’s RSS feed and republishing it).
