Summifying my signal overload
In my last blog post, I talked about managing my signal overload problem. Since then, I have been looking for a tool to help manage my signal overload problem. I have tried several tools and Summify is the one tool that I am using now. I have setup up my Summify account to aggregate the most important content items from my Twitter stream. Each day Summify send me a digest of the most important content items from Twitter stream. From what I can tell, Summify is using a combination of retweets and shares to figure out the most the top ranking content items in my social graph. I have verified whether the content items it suggest are really the most important and it all cases Summify was correct. However, the the results tend to be skewed towards high trending news items. I have not found any “nuggets” yet. While this is not a simple problem to solve, the guys at Summify have started on a good note. On days that I cannot go through my Twiter stream, I turn to Summify to catch up on the most important content items of the day.
