Rivva Covering English Speaking Blogs?

August 8, 2007 in Web by Carsten Pötter | View Comments

Rivva is an excellent German memetracking service which is constantly improving. Unlike similar services such as Techmeme Rivva is only covering the German speaking blogosphere. So far. Today I have noticed that at least two blogs have been aggregated that are in English but written by German folks. That’s cool, of course. Is this a new strategy? What is required to be added? There are no news regarding this change on the Rivva blog.

    I certainly don't want to complain and there is nothing wrong with that. It's just been really surprising to see blognation and this blog there. I guess, I like Rivva even more now. ;)
  • yeah, the two blogs are blognations detech and this one. Both covering german news and/or are written by Germans. I see nothing wrong in that one. :)
  • It's an experiment. Blognation's first post fooled Rivva's language filter into thinking it's a German blog. So far, no one complained, so I guess a few additional English voices are welcome.
