Glue your content on the web together using SuperGlue
SuperGlu is a web service which claims to gather all your feeds in one place and make a practically automated
blog for you. SuprGlu is about allowing people to pick up the bits and pieces of themselves scattered around the web and being able to put it all together in the form of a digital scrapbook. The idea is to have an easy way to share things about themselves beyond the specific online communities they participate in.
SuprGlu allows you to input a number of feeds. There’s a preset list, which is surprisingly small and limited from services to choose from whereby you just choose your user name and click on ‘Add Source’. For advance usage there’s an Add External Source option, there are some issues with importing content from some of the feeds. Also, the feed gathering is a little slow, but manageable.
SuperGlu works well and ability to use templates for your pages has made SuperGlu look very professional if you want. The team, to their credit, have added a feature of defining your own CSS for a customized look and feel to your account of SuperGlu. Another feature that has been added recently is the RSS feeds which is very useful.
The team for SuprGlu consists of Zsombor Dee in Romania, and Shawn and myself here in New York. Zsombor leads our Ruby on Rails development, Shawn focuses on the design, and I focus on product development, responding to feedback, and occasionally coding. We all have computer science backgrounds, and we all take part in defining what we’re building. If you are interested in more then visit http://www.emilychang.com/go/ehub/interview/suprglu to read the interview that was done with the team in December 2006.
I haven’t had time to do that myself, but a good example is Emily Chang’s Suprglu page. So in effect, you can create a brand new blog based on all of your content sources - and you can style it just as you would a Movable Type or Wordpress blog. I can see this becoming increasingly appealing, as more and more content ‘buckets’ appear on the Web for users to create content in. An aggregate blog to be a home for all that content would be very handy.
I would recommend SuperGlu to everyone as it is nice way to have all relevant content at one place
