Keith and Mike plan to launch the service at PC Forum next month
The service aggregates listings from RSS-based Web pages–post listings on your blog and Edgeio indexes and organizes them on its site.
they have come up with a simple and elegant twist on the listings/classified business.
our next priority hire is an experienced systems engineer who can help us scale the service
Edgeio is targeting early adopters out of the gate, bloggers who have some familiarity with ping servers, claiming blogs, RSS and tagging,
the company is building tagging plug-ins/widgets for adding more structure (Edgeio will support structured blogging standards as they emerge).
3-4 years experience running large scale web and database applications

• Thorough understanding of how to architect a system for scalability and reliability

• Experience administering and deploying redundant MySQL databases

• Understanding of basic network security principles

• Ability to build and operate real-time application monitoring tools
Later on Edgeio will provide some tools and Web forms to help less sophisticated users take advantage of the system
generate revenue via contextual ads, listing enhancement (bolding) fees and paid placement (a publisher/lister pays 25 cents to stay at the top of the heap) and auctions in the future as the service ramps up the number of listings.

These are the problems I faced:* Most tag search engines are not intelligent enough to provide RSS feeds for such searches.* The page is not intelligent enough to remove duplicate links. For example, suppose I have a page bookmarked in delicious having the tags as semantic-web and rdf, then that particular link shows up in both the tag searches. So if I combine the tag search results, the page shows up twice.* Most of the service providers do not have an option to turn off non-English pages. So many Japanese and French (or Latin?!) pages turn up in the results.* I want a hierarchy. I should be able to create a group "Semantic web" which contains feed results for the search query given above and another group, say "Web 2.0" which has a similar query. I should be able to relate the results of "Semantic web" group with those of "Web 2.0".* The ability to view feeds using different views - "Technical" and "Non-technical" or "Office related" or "Non office related".* Finally, there should be a theme. I would like to read my "Technical feeds" once a day and "Comics" once a week. How do I separate them?I am still looking for a solution.
I found an inherent problem in these services.What I tried to do is to set up a page which contains feeds of my interest based on various other tag search results. In particular, I wanted it to aggregate feeds from delicious, Technorati, Google blog search, Yahoo news search, Feedster, Icerocket etc. I wanted search results for:(semanticweb OR semantic-web OR semweb OR sw OR semantic_web) AND (owl OR rdf OR rdfs OR ontology OR ontologies OR taxonomy OR rdql OR SPARQL OR w3c OR metadata OR semantic OR semantics OR knowledge)
