    Wonderful talk about how the new real-time web is getting filtered and how Brizzly's new product helps us understand and organize the flow of information out there.

    Jason did a good job of presenting his product and leading the discussion to developing a conscensious definition of real-time web aggregation of discussions of fleeting topics. With forward thinking persons such as Jason I feel alot of the noise that currently appears in search engines will ameloriate in a few years inspite of the explosive increase in traffic on the Internet superhighway.
