Tracking & finding news

Artificial Ants – Microcontent News, a Corante.com Microblog

I read the book he’s referring to a number of years ago. Interesting analogy, though about people tracking and finding news stories like ants find food. There’s something cool that could go on here, but I’m not quite able to put my finger on it yet. Of course, the problem with this is that only the big sources of news would be found and it would actively keep eyes away from other sources.

Ooh, I just read a little further. He’s a Dartmouth guy, too.
