Listening to: The Shadowlands - Ryan Adams

I have been working an as advisor to a very exciting company in Christchurch called VortexDNA. A small group of seriously smart people have been able to create an algorithm that allows a system to determine the relevance of data to an individual user. They currently provide a Firefox plugin that is used to increase the relevance, and therefore accuracy, of Google search results. The plugin is the first offering but plans are a foot to provide tools with a greater reach - ones that don’t have the limitations associated with software plugins.

The noise around Web 3.0 technologies is starting to grow, but VortexDNA is the first offering I have seen that is actually starting to deliver on the promise.

Keep an eye on their blog.

They also provide a REST based VortexDNA API for developers.
