Tailrank Follows that Meme

Great post about Tailrank from the perspective of a new user:

I'm intriqued by a service called Tailrank - it's a memetracker that spiders more than one hundred thousand blogs (presumably chosen based on Technorati rank, but I don't see any details about this at their site) and publishes well-organized, comprehensive threads that track the spread of the hottest blogosphere topics for any given day. There are other, better established memetrackers ... but I find Tailrank's organizing principles to be really intuitive and, to me, it just looks a whole lot prettier.

...

Just using the basic memetracking tool, I've found it easier to follow widely distributed conversations (taking place across many many blogs) and have discovered some great marketing blogs I hadn't previously known about.
