Gobuzz was basically google alerts for people and companies that matter to you. We would send you an email each day (or more) with news about these people and companies. Near the end we also supported NLP stuff to find new people mentioned alongside your important contacts.
I still think it's a missing piece of the news world, but we lacked experience and did not dig in and focus.
- rokhayakebe 15y agoI am working on what could be considered an MVP for GoBuzz. Did you guys use Google Alerts and souped it?
- yesimahuman 15y agoNo, we did the indexing and searching ourselves utilizing Solr and using a document service (can't remember the name, starts with an S, which was pricy). This let us take out a lot of "fuzzy" tokenization requirements and rely on pretty exact matches in content. I'd love to talk more about it with you. My email is in my profile.
- rokhayakebe 15y agoDefinitely will do. Thanks.
