Megite is the social news aggregrator for anyone interested in what's happening right now by intelligently uncovering the most relevant items from auto discovered news sites and weblogs.

Megite Blog Tracker: the first algorithmic news tracking service created for a single blog. Megite realized that there had to be a better way to explore the conversations around blog posts - particularly for large blogs - than the typical tools such as trackbacks and pingbacks. What's more, blog readers may be short of time and unwilling to scroll through many pages of posts to discover the top story of the day. See the demo created for mashable.com:

My Megite: send us the web link for your public OPML file or reading list, and Megite creates the personalized version for you. Megite fetches the OPML file every time when it runs, so the changes in your OPML file should automatically reflect in your personalized Megite. See the demos created by utilizing OPML files on their blog sites:

License Megite Software: Email us for more info if you are interested in licensing Megite software to create Megite like web2.0 service.

Please read our weblog, or send your questions, comments or OPML file to matthew.chen@gmail.com
