PubSub Link Tool

There are a ton of tools that show blog connectivity data. Many people have already mentioned this tool, but I didn't because I figured it would be a boring me too type tool. I just tried it out, and it looks pretty cool.

It shows inlinks and outlinks by date, which should make it easier to:

• see how ideas spread

• find a few hundred more related blogs to add to your feed reader
• find on topic ad buy locations
• perform guerilla marketing

A couple ideas that would make this technology even cooler are:

• clustering the links around posts or ideas

• organizing the links in order of appearance

I have not dove deep into PubSub or Technorati, and am not a programmer by trade, but they both probably have some interesting marketing research data. It will be interesting to see if and how they market it, and how bloggers will respond.
