How will Planet Semantic Focus differ from PlanetRDF James? (Apart from having non-blog feeds...) Keep up the good work! John. --

@Michael: Added! Thanks for the tip.

@John: The biggest ways PSF differs from PlanetRDF are as follows: PSF has a larger, more active list of blogs to index from, it does not display full posts by authors (I encourage users to visit the blogs and read more), you can search for what you're looking for, and among other things I've been experimenting with allowing users to comment on entries (which will later be exposed with SIOC). I will have a button to allow registered users the ability to bury an entry if it is off-topic, spam, or otherwise inappropriate. Logged-in users will be able to tag posts, and tags will also be included in the search allowing for greater rediscovery. The aggregator also checks each entry's permalink to find rel="tag" in anchors on the page. If so it indexes those tags and associates them with their entry. Visitors are encouraged to help the index grow by submitting any new Semantic Web content they find (including new blogs). Planet Semantic Focus will be a constantly updating, changing, and improving Semantic Web content finder.
