Toluu; Feed discovery web 2.0 style
If you are an RSS addict like myself then you are always on the lookout for that new fresh feed to grab and add it to your feedreader of choice. With the new service Toluu finding new feeds has never been easier and never been more social!
Toluu overall is a pretty easy service to sign up for and begin sharing and discovering in no time. When you begin you have two options for getting started by either manually adding feeds as you go or if you have an OPML file you can import that into the system and share all your feeds with the world which is where the social aspect of Toluu comes in.
The social aspect is probably the coolest part or the part that really stands out for the service. You can of course add friends to get a network going, but you can also search for other users out there who based on the services algorithm match you the best as well as the system recommending feeds you might want to add to your daily reads.
For me besides just the concept of the service being a great idea I think the support and interaction with the developers is top notch! On several occasions I have spoken to Caleb Elston about ideas, issues, or just getting a feel for the service and where they want it to go. I think that really helps a young and developing service to embrace the community aspect.
So with all that said I cannot recommend Toluu enough. Its a beta service that still has some holes and improvements but they are coming and the service seems to improve daily. Currently it is invite only so if you are interested in checking things out feel free to comment and leave your email address. We will get you an invite ASAP.
