I set up Thredr last night so it would automatically build the conversations going on among Tablet PC/MID/Eee PC/ModBook/UMPC fans, Apple enthusiasts, and Microsoft-oriented developers every two hours.
Thredr has become one of the top places I check for news in these three topics. It gives a quick glance at what people are talking about.
I still have a little work to do with thredr. Cosmetically I know I need to restrict the text’s maximum width. I just haven’t gotten to it. I also need to some additional feeds in each of the topics to increase the quality of the linking. And I need to tweak the ranking/grouping algorithm a bit too to group related conversations. There’s probably more to do.
Bob’s still working on the front end so you can create your own micro-conversation topics too. That should be fun to use.
Thredr is up for Tablet PCs, Apple topics, and Microsoft Devs…
