"We are very excited to announce today that on October 1st, 2009
Twingly is going to launch what will become the next great platform
for social media.

The Realtime Web has claimed the throne as successor of Web 2.0 and
the world is blogging and Tweeting and Facebooking to their hearts'
content. Interesting content deserving your attention might be only
seconds or minutes old, and yesterday's news is since long gone.

In social media, newly published content travels to you propelled by

it's own interestingness and quality. People around you find different ways to say "this is interesting!" and the choice of people you listen
to decides what news will reach you and when. Often, you ignore what is coming through. But whenever you spend a few minutes on a new piece
of information, you have made a decision based on which people you
know already have spent time on it and their subsequent reactions. In
the realtime web, this process is ever faster, increasing the
freshness and quality of news ending up before your eyes.

On October 1st, 2009, Twingly will join the ranks of web services
working together to improve your experience of social and traditional
media. With Project Shinobi, we are aiming to provide a more social, more relevant and more realtime experience, integrating with the services you already use. Not only for people that are early adopters
of social media, but accessible and immediately valuable for anyone."

Project Shinobi is underway. Stay tuned.
