What technologies did you build this with? What database are you using? Why is this preferable to something like a Facebook group or tumblr blog aggregator? For example, if I'm interested in Heavy Metal why wouldn't I just follow a Heavy Metal blog and join a Heavy Metal Facebook group? Thanks - the site looks functional and I appreciate your enthusiasm. Looking forward to your relies.
- talhof8 13y agoBuilt with PHP (looking backwards, I'd use Python) and MySQL, hosted on AWS EC2. While following Heavy Metal blog on Facebook will expose you to relevant content, you will still miss other blogs and what they have to say. Following a broad facebook page of "Heavy Metal" will probably expose you to a whole pile of spam and ads. This is why Interestin has upvotes so spam and ads won't get to the top. Also, I hope to develop some sort of anti-spam mechanism, but this will take a while. Thanks!
