BlogPulse to enhance AOL’s pulse of Internet “buzz”
Intelliseek announced today a new agreement to provide AOL with daily blog data and trend analysis from Intelliseek’s BlogPulse.
Under the agreement, Intelliseek’s blog data, statistics, trend charts and blog entries will be featured on the AOL network. These daily blog reports will update Web users in real time about Internet activity and “buzz.”
Included in the daily feeds will be top blogs, top blog posts, top news stories and news sources being cited by bloggers, top website/blog links being shared by bloggers, as well as the top personalities and phrases being discussed by bloggers in their posts. AOL also will have access to BlogPulse’s two blogs – BlogPulse Newswire, a summary of blog activity, and the entertainment-focused BlogPulse Spotlight.
“The blogging world is growing by leaps and bounds, and this agreement is a natural fit for two companies intent on delivering timely blog information to today’s Internet users,” said Karthik Iyer, Intelliseek’s Senior Vice President of Business Development. “We’re delighted that AOL is validating the investment we’ve made in one of the Internet’s best tools and technologies for
blog analysis.”
“The addition of daily blog data from BlogPulse advances AOL’s mission of being one of the leading destinations Web users visit to find out what’s happening in the World and on the Internet, and what people are talking about.
The blog trend data we will be receiving from BlogPulse will keep visitors to the AOL network connected to and informed about the fast-growing blogging community,” said Bill Schreiner, Vice President, AOL Community.
