Tap into some memes.

Posted on Sep 25th, 2006 by alina : visionista alina

Techmeme is what I would call an "insider aggregator" for tech news and memes. Others have called it "a new kind of advertisement". And it certainly qualifies as a "new sponsorship model".

Gabe Rivera explains his invention as follows:

At this moment, the next big story in technology may reside on a blog you've never heard of or a news site you don't have time to scan. So I built a software agent to surface these links in real time and the result is Techmeme, the site you're visiting now. Coverage is driven by a mix of industry insiders, passionate independents, and established journalists. So Techmeme gets the story no matter where it appears, and often days before it hits major sites.

If you have questions or suggestions or links for Gabe and his crew, send them along in an email to dotell@memeorandum.com.
