IceRocket Big Buzz Puts Web’s Reaction On One Page
10:30PM Kevin Purdy | Search site IceRocket gives near-real-time results from the web, blogs, Twitter, news sites, images, and videos (phew), but its Big Buzz feature conveniently mashes it all onto one page. For those “What’s going on?” moments—such as when, say, a plane crashes into the Hudson River—it’s a great spot to get a quick scan of what’s going on, and what’s being said, on one page. IceRocket’s advanced preferences open up some results-cropping tools. For those looking for a serious bathing in information, you can also grab an RSS feed from your search results. IceRocket is free to use. IceRocket Big Buzz [via Micro Persuasion] More »

Swurl Aggregates Your Online Activity in a Calendar
8:00AM Adam Pash | Web site Swurl aggregates your online activity in a simple blog-like format.

Swurl’s timeline feature stands out most, placing your links, photos, and other activities on a calendar timeline. For a nice example, check out Swurl founder Ryan Sit’s Swurl page; if you like what you see, starting your own Swurl is free. Swurl More »

Of course, it’s also a great tool for monitoring a topic or another person across the web’s wide expanse, but once you add Addict-O-Matic to your Firefox search bar options or just as a bookmark, you know you’ll be heading back to satisfy your online-mirror-checking fix.
