Tools out ...

| No Comments
For the past year or so I've been working for an Internet startup called StoryCode.com on a project which aims to change the way people who read choose their books.

Thanks to blood, sweat, tears and a rather spiffy algorithm which does some top secret behind the scenes shenanigans, we take a wide range of parameters and suggest appropriate matches for books based on how readers "scored" those parameters - it produces some interesting results ...

Yesterday we launched a second product, BlogCode, which performs a similar service, but for Weblogs. So far it's been runaway success and one of the things I'm really pleased with is the Web Services side of things, there's some quite cool stuff in the offing, but the first taste of what we can do with the data is the BlogTool (cast your gaze to the right-hand side of the page and keep scrolling till you hot the box which says "BlogCode matches for this weblog". It's a dynamic tool which updates every hour or so and lists the logs which are the closest match to my own fair effort - quite nifty even though I do say so myself.

So, there you go, ego massage mode off and back to work, but if you do feel like supporting this blog, feel free to nip over to BlogCode and give your opinion - go on, you know you want to !!!
