Attribyte monitors the top technology blogs and news sources to create an automated digest of top headlines and a searchable index of their most recent and relevant content.
The news digest is produced by software that assigns a score to each entry, calculated by an analysis of the link neighborhood.
A cluster of the most influential links is attached to most headlines. It may include inbound links from blogs as well as links to original news sources.
Editors may occasionally influence the digest by upgrading particularly interesting entries that have not been linked to or removing those that are off-topic or inappropriate. Editorially promoted entries are clearly identified.
Editors are responsible for selecting and managing the pool of featured sites; however, the site's ranking is algorithmically determined. The sites with the highest scores are featured on the front page, along with their authors.
Search covers all sites and entries, with entry and site rank used to boost matching results. The current week's entries are searched first, with the full archive of older information available.
This site runs on the Attribyte search/publishing platform. All search engines and feed-readers use automated software agents (AKA web "bots" or "crawlers") to collect and index information from sites and feeds. Attribyte uses several agents, and all respect the robot exclusion protocol.
