Very nice site! - Michael Krigsman

Thanks Michael! We are pleased you like it. We are tweaking a few things and a new search algorithm will be launched very soon, which soon give a far better results then what we can see now in TechFuga…stay tuned…Joao/TechFuga - TechFuga

Fascinating Mix. Will be watching - Charlie Anzman

Awesome site - like Google News on roids! Great work. You will surely become the main source for Tweeters wanting to send out that latest news tidbit. Let us know when you finish your API so we can distribute your solution across our sites. - David Gosse

Just found TechFuga via a mention at Scobleizer. http://scobleizer.com/2009... I'm impressed that you're using an FF room to kickstart your community. Give this room a proper avatar! Link to TechFuga.com in the room title! - Daniel J. Pritchett

An apology to our users: TechFuga search algorithm is running wild and seems to be celebrating new year's 2009 already. As you probably have seen yesterday and today the top stories don't make any sense; are old and keep rotating back and forward and moslty noise. We are working on it and soon things should get normal…bear with us …Thanks, Joao/techfuga - TechFuga

do you have an RSS feed? (tweet at me - @sarahintampa) - Sarah Perez

Sarah: the rss feeds are coming next week. I will send you a tweet..Thanks JoaoTechFuga - TechFuga

Techfuga.com is under maintenance mode for a few hours and we shall be back up again soon. Joao/TechFuga - TechFuga

Will you tweet me when the rss feeds are available? - Cindyg

Your relevancy isn't nearly as good as techmeme, for instance. How can we help you get the really important articles to the top of the page? - Robert Scoble

And I'd love to see your crawler in real-time, like what friendfeed letsme do. Next year news sites will be judged by how real time they are. You should get your leg up there. - Robert Scoble

At first I thought of TechFuga similar to my netvibes page, but after some use I got addicted to it and could not close it. - Veetrag

Also, you need your own design. Techmeme 's design sucks. Yours sucks worse because you copied it. - Robert Scoble

I need to be able to reuse ALL news items. What do I mean by that? I need to be able to link to clusters and items on my blog. On Facebook. On friendfeed. I can't do that easily right now. You need to put permalinks on EVERYTHING. Make it very possible for me to spread news that I find on your page. - Robert Scoble

Why isn't the algorithms retunable? For instance, every item should have a hide link like friendfeed, but it should also have an option like "never show me Apple news ever again." Or some sort of slider to "bring me less apple news in future." - Robert Scoble

Since you cloned techmeme, why didn't you clone friendfeed too? Where is the "like" the "comment" links, etc? - Robert Scoble

Make it possible for me to add more sources to techfuga. I see sources that aren't on here. They should be. How do I add them? (Hint: just suck them off of my friendfeed like page). - Robert Scoble

Weird! Their about page goes to FriendFeed. I think that I like that. Edit: So does their blog. Very interesting indeed. - Eric Florenzano

One thing techmeme has NEVER done is include video events and news. Why don't you? Show the best of Qik, Kyte, YouTube, Viddler, blip.tv, Smugmug video, Facebook video, etc. - Robert Scoble

I'm seeing real-time data showing up there. Shove it back into friendfeed so I can watch your feeds in real time in rooms that you've setup. - Robert Scoble

Anyway, anyone else have any ideas? ++++++++++++++++++ - Robert Scoble

Eric: their use of friendfeed is very interesting indeed. That's a real innovation and something I was hoping to see on techmeme for a long time. The fact that techmeme and its sister sites is ignoring twitter news is really lame and, actually, opened the door for this weekend's bitchmeme. - Robert Scoble

One other thing: I just saw a Shel Israel tweet show up there (he's covering the gaza news conference tomorrow). This is one thing that techmeme does exceedingly well: keep noise off of techmeme. That tweet should have been on a different page, something like memeorandum. But it is very interesting that it showed up so fast onto techfuga. With a better UI and a couple months of work on the algorithms you could have something very disruptive here. - Robert Scoble

Thanks for bringing this to my attention Scobez. - iTad

Thanks everybody: Yes! We plan to tell our users how our algorithm works and would be very please with the help of everyone; we will also tell how to get into TechFuga, but you are already very close to it …FriendFeed will be the answer. Currently we are fixing some UI/graphics and tweaking algorithm that has gone completely crazy during last two days, by Thursday we should be more stable as with far less noise coming in. Thanks Joao/TechFuga - TechFuga

Robert! Good points thanks! About videos we will go for ONLY tech related news/products.. videos; do you and everyone here on the chat would like to also see any video that comes up as popular? - on: " best of Qik, Kyte, YouTube, Viddler, blip.tv, Smugmug video, Facebook video, etc" Joao TechFuga - TechFuga
